Imagine how the late 70s SNL and late-night shows would have responded to the Biden administration...

The one the Bidenites were negotiating to purchase a year ago?

I thought it was funny. The dude does a great DJT. Lighten up, y’all.

It’s a question of balance. In the 80s, they went after both parties. But now it’s completely one-sided.

I watched this morning on you tube. I see your point about even handedness. SNL should do a skit about the hear no evil, see no evil of the Rats not knowing Joe Burden was totally senile.

One of my all-time favorite SNL skits was Phil Hartman as Reagan doing “Mastermind”, which implied he was completely in charge of Iran-Contra.

From the skits I've seen on YouTube, this actor does a better job compared to Alec Baldwin.

The problem is that they never make fun of Democrats. Even if they do, Maya Rudolph played a version of Kamala Harris that was sympathetic rather than condescending like she should have done.

If Goebbels used comedy, would you have thought it funny?

Sorry, no thanks.

It’s past time to put this unfunny excuse for a show out to pasture.

It’s actually pretty mild for uber-lefty SNL. You can watch it here:

SNL stopped being funny after Gilda and Jane and Chevy and Belushi and that cast left. So I was surprised there were a couple of amusing bits in this, like “Abu Dhabi Doo” (Flintstones) and the mobile McDonald’s bit.

.... season finale by mocking...

Would that it have only been the series finale.

As for plains and suitability for any one group, I’d say “Only Boeing for journalists.”

Since no one watches, this is why Business Insider was paid to write this story. Otherwise, no one would even know about SNL’s little skit.

They were relatively mild on Carter, compared to Ford
