Katie Miller jumped to Elon Musk’s defense after Saturday Night Live mocked his parenting, calling the sketch a “political hit job” and insisting the billionaire’s children “absolutely adore him.”
Miller, a MAGA podcaster and the wife of President Donald Trump’s new chief of staff, called the NBC show “the antithesis of comedy and satire” in a heated rant Sunday.
SNL is literally the antithesis of comedy and satire.

It takes weak men to take cheap shots — especially about @elonmusk’s kids. Elon is a devoted dad who prioritizes time with his kids and it’s obvious they absolutely adore him.

“It takes weak men to take cheap shots — especially about @elonmusk’s kids. Elon is a devoted dad who prioritizes time with his kids and it’s obvious they absolutely adore him,” Miller wrote.
In a withering ski, Jeremy Culhane impersonated Musk asking his AI chatbot Grok to subject him to an “epic, vulgar roast.” The chatbot called him “worst thing South Africa has ever done” and said, “when you’re on TV, it feels like an episode of Hate on the Spectrum.”

Musk has fathered 14 different children with four different women. He is estranged from his older daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson, with the pair not speaking since she came out as transgender in 2020.
While Culhane’s bit had the audience in stitches, Miller was unamused, labeling it a “political hit job.”
“Make comedy actually funny again,” Miller said.
Miller reportedly holds a lucrative stake worth $1 million in Musk’s xAI, according to recent White House disclosures.
