Get over yourselves.
I don’t know.
All I can say is that the musical guest was truly bizarre.
I guess I’m not cool anymore.
it’s called trying to get as much youth vote as possible which I think he’ll do much better than any recent Republican.. relax and wait for Tuesday
I think you have it backwards. When Hillary was on, they seemed to really step it up a notch to boost her appearance. With Trump, from the very first, incredibly dull scene, throughout the show, the writing was atrocious and unfunny...I think BY DESIGN to hurt Trump. They knew they would get great ratings. They already made their boffo profits with advertisers. All that was left was to leave a bad taste in those viewers mouths...with Trump as the focus of that negativity.
Net gain for Trump. Probably neutralized a few haters. Maybe more than a few.
SNL used to have good political jokes and skits. They also used to treat people equally. I guess no more. Other than the political jokes, SNL has always been either trashy or lame or both, with a few funny exceptions not with hanging around for.
Off topic, sorry//// the clash between Carson and Trump is going to be interesting. No one should listen to me but if the Trump campaign would, I would strongly advocate laying off personal attacks and stick to the issues. I am still favouring Trump over Carson but it’s getting close. I really liked the way Carson handled the west point thing and I hated how Donald handled it.
I think they should be a ticket.
Trump/Carson 2016.
I got through the first 15 minutes , but didn’t laugh once . Gee -am I losing my sense of humor ???
What did you guys expect?
Jeez.
watch it before it is removed for copyright reasons.
Where’s the link on YouTube for this? All I could find was the monologue intro.
Trump got more out of the protests than his own appearance...I mean, that was God awful. People posting on Twitter about how great the episode is must be getting paid.
Mo Mother’s review of the episode: “What the hell, is this entertainment nowadays. This whole show was stupid”
MKT 101.
He wasn’t doing it for the informed voter.
Barry the vote over from the useless idiots, which I agree with.
What’s the alternative..
I think Dr Carson was right about SNL. It didn’t help Sarah Palin going on there at all and that show still trashes her
Seriously? It’s a sketch Comedy Show. If you want Voters to know who you are, you do whatever is necessary to reach them. If it takes an SNL Appearance, so be it.
IMHO Trump did fine. I swear, it seems like people here are living inside a “get off my lawn you damn kids” bubble.
Trump probably got more people supporting him from this appearance simply because it shows them that he isn’t what the Media portrays him to be. The big Immigrant Protest fizzled and even backfired with the Larry David Joke.
Trump obviously has a sense of humor, he isn’t stiff like Hillary seemed to be when she appeared and it looks like he gets along with People (castmembers) who would not necessarily give him the time of day.
Most people don’t live and breathe Conservative Politics and for better or worse, a Candidate that gets out amongst people who may not agree with his politics and ideas can actually gain some respect from those same individuals.
Funny how Romney was relentlessly attacked and ended up apologizing for being Successful and Wealthy. Trump has not fallen into that trap nor will he.
I remember Romney being told by some Blacks not to show up in their Neighborhood where he was planning on Campaigning. Trump, despite his Wealth and Politics would not have that kind of reception. If it’s his Celebrity, so be it. It means he can go where no Republican has gone before and spread his message.
Disclosure, Cruz is my first choice and Trump is my next and final choice. The others fall by the wayside, period.
It would have been so much better with Gilda Radner, Belushi, Eddie Murphy, Dan Akroyd and others who could have carried the show with or without better scripts.
Trump should have put the kibosh on that last obscene skit as well as the black female at the news desk who was a disgrace. She was filthy and I wanted to turn off the TV.
The idea behind his appearance on SNL was NOT to speak of issues and his way of handling them. It was instead meant to have those who watch the show, mostly young and mostly Left see him in a different light than has been portrayed by the Liberal Media.
His self mockery and evident sense of humor allows others to see the lie behind his being portrayed as some sort of monster. The criticism here of Trump because he was in their opinion “not funny” is as silly as what a NY Daily News columnist had to say. She hammered trump on his inability to dance, as if he was a professional.
There was a reason why so many demanded NBC cancel Trump and their fears were realized because Trump emerged as far more likable than others who had never seen him but only heard of him believed.
Because stupid people make up a large part of the electorate and he needs to siphon as many votes from Hitlery as he can.
I agree SNL live isn’t worth watching but Trump made it worth while. Maybe not to you or me but to younger undecided voters. A little self deprecating humor doesn’t hurt.
