Jim Carrey used his latest anti-Trump artwork to send a tongue-in-cheek plea to anyone who’s ever said his acting is exaggerated or overdone.
“Nightmare-in-chief Donald Trump assembled a cast of freaks so cartoonishly evil they strain credulity,†the actor-artist captioned his drawing of the president’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, complete with the black liquid that oozed down his face during a post-election press conference.
“Don’t ever say my acting is over the top again,†Carrey added:
Carrey ― whose politically-themed artwork HuffPost has reported on many, many, many, many, many, many, many times over the last four years ― played President-elect Joe Biden on “Saturday Night Live†before the election.
“I would love to go forward knowing that Biden was the victor because I nailed that shit,†he tweeted to confirm his departure from the show in December. “But I am just one in a long line of proud, fighting SNL Bidens!â€
Though my term was only meant to be 6 weeks,I was thrilled to be elected as your SNL President…comedy’s highest call of duty. I would love to go forward knowing that Biden was the victor because I nailed that shit. But I am just one in a long line of proud, fighting SNL Bidens!
