The $5,000 being paid to say Trump was a racist at part of the opening did make my laugh.It actually rang, true. I also thought the Mexican President giving Donald a check that was for more than the cost of the wall was funny, too. And the bit about the wall making for good neighbors. However, most of it was dull, dull, dull.
Those were the few parts that also made me laugh near the beginning, but SNL is just not funny anymore. I had to skip through it to the parts where only Trump spoke later in the show. And it wasn’t funny.
From the 1970s through the early 1990s it was pretty good. From there onward to took a steep dive and I never watched it again until now. At least I know not to ever watch it again even if Trump is there. What kind of ratings is SNL getting these days?
