11:30 p.m. ET on NBC. If this guy can make this show funny, making America great again will be a snap.
If he’s smart, and he is, 80 percent of the jokes will be at his own expense. The intrigue lies with the other 20 percent. How nasty will he and the cast get with his competition? Tonight’s an unusual opportunity for Trump to humiliate the other candidates in front of a big audience, if SNL is willing to play along. A cutting joke about Carson or Bush or Rubio will become a prism through which some low-information voters view them going forward, just as Trump’s own “low energy†putdown of Jeb ended up sticking to him. That’s a big subplot tonight: How eager will the mostly liberal SNL writers be to help Trump score points against the rest of the field?
The other big subplot is whether anyone will disrupt the show. That dopey PAC that made the ad of little kids cursing at Trump over immigration has been publicizing a $5,000 reward for any audience member who shouts “Trump is a racist†while the broadcast is in progress. I’ve even seen speculation on social media that the cast itself might double-cross Trump somehow by doing something to humiliate him because of his politics. I’ll believe that when I see it, but this gets to the special intrigue of Trump appearing on this show of all shows: You never know what’ll come out of his mouth and you never know what might go wrong on live TV. Anything can happen.

Don’t feel alone, but this is SO bad, I’m being tortured.
Diamond & Silk are much more entertaining than SNL, aren’t they?
Stump for Trump! Can’t wait...hope they show them in the audience.
He was okay until a NBC veep in Los Angeles heard his
Clinton/murderer bit. They demanded he get fired ... and he did.
That was an old show. The new SNL is on at 11:30...
The next sketch wasn’t that great either. A little better, but not much.
The world has passed me by if that's funny. If Sartre were writing No Exit today, hell would be sitting on a couch being forced to watch SNL.
I didn’t think DU was funny. Geesh - that show needs to fire it’s writers and hire some funny ones.
Oh my....there was a dresser combing Sia....
Alice Cooper was on Fox and Friends this summer. He shared they were friends ( played golf together) and compared Trumps public personna vs private life to himself. Cooper has been married 40 years, sober 30 He is a born again Christian and works with troubled youth. He said Trump was one of the most considerate, kindest and generous people he knew. A description that Carson ( who has known Trump for decades) echoed on Cavuto the next day
Say it ain’t so!! No more Sia! Trump wearing an earring did make me smile...lol.
DITTO!
I’d never heard of Sia before. She wasn’t bad....but the hair???
Trump should tell them all "you're fired" and hire the Jay Leno writers...they aren't doing anything.
Nope....it was HORRIFIC!
I give up.
It lost some punch when Tina Fey left. She’s a major writer.
NICE that should be loads of fun I love those girls!
Yep.
Skit with Toots is cute. LOLOLOL....Trump - “you know I carry a gun”......
Trump wears his tie down below his navel. Is that the fashion now??
