Donald Trump is hosting NBC's “Saturday Night Live†-- in a highly-anticipated appearance that is also bringing sharp criticism about the Republican presidential candidate’s comment, particularly on Mexican immigrants.
While the New York-based sketch-comedy show has a 40-year history of lampooning politicians, even getting some to mock themselves, booking a presidential candidate to host is almost unprecedented.
Trump said Friday night on Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor†that he nixed some proposed skits because they were too risqué, particularly, it seems, for the all-important social-conservative vote in early-voting state Iowa.
“I had to,†Trump said. “I’m leading in Iowa. I want to stay leading in Iowa.â€

Yeah, right some illegals outside protesting is the controversy. I don’t think so Fox News.

I wonder how large the ratings will be. The 18-49 ratings are most important but the overall can be used for bragging rights. Well let’s see, Who Killed JR had 131 million watch. Can you imagine is we beat that? Holy cow.

Just went to the SNL website. They had a nice video bit on tonight’s show.

JR....boy did we get sucked in. Imagine watching something that nobody REALLY cares about.
IMHO, probably in the 30 mil range. 47% could care less.

I just wish it was some other outlet. I hate to give SNL one more viewer.

You are probably closer to right. Of course that would be a very respectable number. 47 percent is interesting because that is the guaranteed Democratic doofus’ percentage of voters they begin with.
