Rubio Defends Trump as 'SNL' Host

The Florida senator said he does not always agree with the GOP front-runner, but calls for him to be removed as host are excessive.

“It’s a free country,” Rubio said on Fox News’ “Your World” with Neil Cavuto on Wednesday. “I don’t agree with everything that Donald Trump says, I don’t agree with everything the other side says, either. But if you don’t like it, don’t watch the show.” “It’s on at 11:35 on Saturday nights and there are plenty of other things you can watch, or you can just go to bed early,” he added.

Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) has said Trump’s inflammatory comments about illegal immigrants should have disqualified him from hosting the comedy show.

“To put Donald Trump on the air in American living rooms on the signature comedy show of the most important national networks after saying that Mexicans are rapists, drug dealers, and criminals, that is a corporate blunder too big to be ignored,” he said on the House floor on Wednesday.

Uno problemo, Luis, those “gays and lesbians you referenced, are NOT HERE ILLEGALLY & therefore are NOT “murderers and raping Americans,” like you idiotically attempted to rationalize and compare.

Louise G., as a member of Congress, should NOT be telling a television network what to air.

"or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press;"

The problem for those who want Trump removed from SNL, is that the show will be the highest rated SNL program in a decade. And the producers of SNL know it.

LOL at your tagline.

Only a decade...oh no, much longer than that. Turned in recently and surprised to find the show using a laugh track! Please! Anything from a can is nasty nasty nasty. SNL was once a not to be missed show. Then, it was TRANSFORMED. Loud, obnoxious, and leaning left. Many of the original cast has done themselves in. Farewell, so long.
