Pretty much this. They now have a broader opportunity to attack and make humor of the current admin. Is anyone surprised by this?

Bring the downvotes but I like Jost and Che as anchors.

Hands down by far the worst weekend update anchors ever to sit behind the desk.

They are beyond awful. Jost may be the most unfunny person I have ever seen attempt comedy. He literally sucks all life out of the room. Like I can actually hear disembodied souls passing by.

Trump has basically been his own worst enemy on this. If he would just ignore SNL, they wouldn't of had as big of a bump. Trump can't leave shite alone though, so everyone is tuning in to see how SNL responds.

He needs to take Internet 101 - don't respond to the trolls.

I haven't seen SNL in probably 15 years.

I take it, it's crap now?

That's the problem. Not only is snl making 90% of its material about trump, but trump is responding to it and giving them all this free publicity

Lorne Michaels and NBC do backflips when trump tweets crap out about snl.

Wouldn't surprise me if the next 4 years are the highest in recent memory for them.

He is a classic troll though. He gets entertainment out of spinning people up and SNL is doing it right back to him. I think he is having a grand ole time with it and SNL is giving it right back. What's hilarious is SNL and the media takes it personal. Trump is just doing shite to make himself have a laugh.

Guess we are going to find out what happens when you give a troll the keys to the kingdom.

Well Trump has always been tight with NBC execs b/c of The Apprentice. NBC had Trump on speed dial and vice versa during the election. It's like NBC was his mouthpiece when twitter didn't have the desired effect.

Neither has anyone else. They quit being funny 20+ years ago and the silent majority sure isn't going to tune in now. Broke-arse Bernie supporters living with Mom & Dad aren't going to bring back their glory days and SNL will be the next liberal media bastion to implode.

The media still doesn't realize Trump understands exactly what he's doing to control and marginalize them.

Wow


Maybe you can submit some funny concept for a skit to make fun of Obama. Please, please, please let's hear it so we can laugh (because of your obvious superior sense of humor and not because it's going to suck balls).

The POTUS has a jersey shore type tan ON HIS FACE! Clown shoes.
