Santos Gets Into Flame War With “Drag Race” Winner

Deadline Hollywood reports:

George Santos has been having quite the year so far as the embattled congressman’s credentials have come into question. Late-night television has impersonated him and the U.S. representative is not impressed by any of them.

RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Season 3 winner Trixie Mattel joined the conversation and replied to Santos, “Maybe the source material was weak,” in reference to what Santos claimed were “terrible” impersonations of him.

However, Santos clapped back at Trixie and said, “Clearly you know all about weak acting skills.” Trixie would follow up with, “I am not an actor! I was young and I had fun at a festival!”

I have now been enshrined in late night TV history with all these impersonations, but they are all TERRIBLE so far. Jon Lovitz is supposed to be one of the greatest comedians of all time and that was embarrassing— for him not me! These comedians need to step their game up.
