>> I don't think they hardly ever made fun of Obama, I couldn't even tell you who played him after the non-Black Fred Armisen. <<

There was one really funny post-Armisen sketch I recall, the one doing the "School House Rock" parody with Obama shoving "Immigration Bill" out of the way with his pal "Executive Order". Jay Pharoah played Obama there. I thought his impersonation was good, he got Obama's smug arrogance down pat:

>> I find the lesbo Kate McMinnon (who plays Kellyanne, and Shillery) attractive. She even made Liz Warren hot. <<

Weird, I didn't know Kate McMinnon was a lez. If so, I agree she deserves to be in the "hottest lesbians" category", along with Ellen Page and late 80s/early 90s Jodie Foster (though I don't think Jodie had "come out" back then)

>> Her Jeff Sessions though (yes, really), no, looked like Ross Perot. <<

I haven't seen the Sean Spicer sketch. Having her do Jeff Sessions does sound awful. Sometimes having comedic actors do parodies in drag can be hilarious though, like when John Goodman played Linda Tripp (Goodman also did a good Rex Tillerson) >> Alec Baldwin is AWFUL as Trump <<

Funny, I usually LOATHE Baldwin even when he's in "good" movies like Hunt for the Red October, but I found his Trump parody (playing Trump trying to act totally in control and having all the answers when he's really clueless about government) to be hilarious. The Baldwin-as-Trump sketches are extremely funny to me. You and I also had the opposite reaction with the Will Ferrell as George W. Bush stuff, you thought it was really amusing and I thought Ferrell was awful and didn't sound or act anything like Bush but merely portrayed him as "generic stupid guy". Timothy Bottoms, on the other hand, did an excellent Bush -- both in comedic parodies and in serious dramatic reenactments.

You would be very surprised how attractive some lesbians are. Very attractive.

” “School House Rock” parody with Obama shoving “Immigration Bill” out of the way with his pal “Executive Order”.”

LOL!!! Good sketch.

Yes, Kate is a lez, she had dinner with Shillery the other day (I wonder why....). Apparently they broke up but I googled her last lover, Marla Mindelle, also hot, maybe hotter. I’m never gonna meet let alone sleep with her anyway so I don’t know why it should bother me but it like makes me sad on behalf of mankind.

I’m somewhat incredulous on good-looking/feminine lesbians, I suspect most of them are bisexual or possibly scared of men due to childhood abuse. The true dykes all seem to be mannish in action and appearance, congenital defect.

“John Goodman played Linda Tripp “

Yeah I remember that, hilarious! The little girl who played Perot on “All That” was also good.

You should watch the Shamu as Spicer skits (she did a 2nd that wasn’t as well received but I thought it was funny).

I actually like Baldwin as as actor but his Trump doesn’t ring true to me, South Park has Mr. Garrsion doing the lip thing too, I’ve never noticed it in Trump. And maybe I’m wrong but it just seems more mean-spirited than Ferrell’s Bush, which yes I loved and also Frank Caliendo’s on Mad TV (I heard it’s back, I wonder if it’s any good, they have some old Trump skits on you tube) was pretty good, never saw Tim Bottoms’. Mocking Bush seemed to be just that, doing it for fun just like you’d mock any President, their mocking of Trump just seems like a partisan attack, it never felt like that to me under Bush.

Darrell Hammond’s Clinton was the creme de la creme for me, his Gore was good too.

I remember a little of Dana Carvey as Pappy Bush (probably reprisals from the Dubya years), he was good. Acroyd did Carter? Wasn’t he Reagan too? Seems like a bad choice. I guess they weren’t big on political parody early on?
