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.

I agree. Time to oppose these agents of a foreign country and drug dealers.
Until your are a ratings family , you are not counted.
Bring on the Trump!

Demonstrators are marching through the streets of New York City to protest Donald Trump’s views on immigration hours before he hosts “Saturday Night Live.â€
Dozens of protesters held signs and chanted Saturday evening as they marched from Trump Tower to NBC’s studio in Rockefeller Plaza.
Outside Rockefeller Plaza, they chanted: “Donald Trump has got to go.â€

“It’s true!”, will be said a lot, by DT.
Dozens, huh?....yawn...

Programmed in my DVR just in case I miss it live. I am betting it will get best ratings for SNL in many moons.
I’m going to record it, not sure if I can stay awake that late.
They can tell how strong the viewer count is.
Cable companies know what people are watching.
