During a recent interview, Anna Faris explained how a bit mocking Melania Trump’s “Be Best” campaign was cut from the film. “Be Best” was First Lady Melania Trump’s official White House initiative, launched in May 2018 during Trump’s first term, which focused on wellness, social media abuse and opioid abuse.

“There was a moment where I got drunk… I’m sitting in my truck and I look in the rearview mirror and I say, ‘Be the best, Cindy Campbell. Be the best,'” Faris said of a moment during filming in which she shaded Melania Trump and her Be Best campaign. “That didn’t make it, but I liked the wink there.”
“Faris said she ‘always pushed for Cindy to go down the classic MAGA rabbit hole’ in the film, adding, ‘The kind of person you saw outside Walmart during quarantine who kind of caused a crazy fuss.’” (Variety via Dexerto)
