Would "SNL" cast Aquaria as Melania Trump?

I see there's a petition...

Last week, we watched as Aquaria, a contestant on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 10, performed a skit as Melania Trump for the series' celebrity impersonation challenge: Snatch Game.

Aquaria nailed Melania's looks, was super funny, while being respectful of our nation's First Lady. Saturday Night Live has had some great Melania impersonators before, but Aquaria would be a cut above the rest.

I watch "RuPaul's Drag Race Season 10," and I picked Aquaria as my favorite in Episode 1 and I blogged last week about how much I enjoyed the performance as Melania.



But! "SNL" has had a long-running problem giving adequate representation to its female cast members. Through much of its history, it has been outright sexist, keeping the women cast members down and boosting the men. In recent years, things have been a lot better, and that progress is something "SNL" should want to protect. You might think that it would be a great way to scream PROGRESS!!! to put a drag queen on the show, but to do that for the role of Melania would be to take the role away from castmember Cecily Strong. Here, you can look at the clips of all 19 of her performances in that role. Unless they write a sketch based on the concept that there are somehow 2 Melanias, there will be a progressivism clusterfuck if Aquaria is given the Melania role.

"SNL" bumped castmember Taran Killam to give the Donald Trump role to Alec Baldwin, but Killam is a man — and thus a member of the group long favored by "SNL" — and Alec Baldwin is kind of a big deal, a biiiig, biiiiggg deal, the biggest, most beautiful deal that you have ever seen, believe me.

Now, one thing that so interesting about putting Aquaria in the role is that it mocks Donald Trump in a way that Cecily Strong cannot. It critiques his taste in women, possibly at the expense of transgender women, which Aquaria is not. Everything about Trump is fake, etc. etc. They could run with that and work in the 2 Melania's idea maybe.
