It took months for Saturday Night Live to really rip into Kellyanne Conway, Donald Trump’s slippery campaign manager turned White House counselor. At first, the show depicted Conway—played by longtime cast M.V.P. Kate McKinnon, who also plays S.N.L.’s take on Hillary Clinton—as a harried Trump booster looking for a way out of the future president’s inner circle. All that changed last Saturday, though, when S.N.L. ran an instantly viral sketch that cast Conway as a power-drunk spotlight-hogger, someone ready to make the shift from Svengali to star.

How, exactly, does the real Kellyanne Conway feel about this tectonic shift? Surprisingly fine, according to an interview published Thursday in The Hollywood Reporter.

It’s unclear from the interview whether Conway has seen the sketch show’s latest salvo against her; at least, she doesn’t refer to it directly, either in the interview or a brief video that accompanies it. What is clear, though, is that Conway, like her boss, is intimately familiar with the way S.N.L. has portrayed her in the past. And perhaps predictably, she was more fond of McKinnon’s impression when it was a little less savage.

When asked what she thought of McKinnon’s Kellyanne, the real Kellyanne responded in the video that she wished the show would “make [its Kellyanne] a little bit more happy. I’m known as much more happy than maybe the character sometimes is.” She added that she was a fan of “Kellyanne Conway’s Day Off” , a sketch from the fall of 2016 that cast McKinnon’s Conway as a long-suffering Trump cog constantly called upon to put out fires—and incapable of enjoying even a moment of peace. “That was much more me,” said Conway.

All told, though, the woman Samantha Bee recently called “the soulless Machiavellian despot America deserves” seems pretty unruffled by S.N.L. After all, as an experienced stand-up herself, Conway knows a thing or two about comedy—and more importantly, as a gifted spin master, she can find a way to make even the most dire situation sound positive. And in this case, Conway didn’t even have to work very hard to get there: “Kate McKinnon clearly sees the road to the future runs through me and not Hillary,” she told T.H.R. Even avowed Clinton supporter McKinnon might have to agree with that.
