Andrew Yang is offering to meet with new “Saturday Night Live” cast member Shane Gillis over his use of racist Asian jokes ― including one targeting the Democratic presidential candidate ― and is arguing the comedian shouldn’t be cut from the show.

“I prefer comedy that makes people think and doesn’t take cheap shots. But I’m happy to sit down and talk with you if you’d like,” he wrote in a Saturday tweet responding to a post from Gillis, who was announced earlier this week as one of the program’s latest additions.

Yang, who is Asian, added that rather than penalize Gillis by firing him, he should be shown forgiveness.

“For the record, I do not think he should lose his job,” he said. “We would benefit from being more forgiving rather than punitive. We are all human.”
