Nice way to misrepresent what I said. I asked what harm would it be to non-US citizens having to wait for 90 days. There was nothing in the post about legal permanent residents, and I was not referring to them. But honestly, I know legal permanent residents that were stuck in their home country during a vacation because of some paperwork issues, and that was under the Obama administration. They weren't harmed by it except having to deal with the issue and hiring an attorney, but they are fine.

The worse came in what SNL calls a digital short since it is filmed off set. It had Kate Mckinnon who I think is usually very talented and funny playing her rendition of Kellyanne Conway in a send up to the "Fatal Attraction" movie.
In the sketch, Conway is played as a deranged woman stalking the CNN anchor Jake Tapper. She breaks into his apartment and waits for him to get home. She then throws a fit and throws a knife at him once and holds one to his throat twice until he agrees to put her on his show again.

So much for promoting positive feminism.

It was so sick, stupid and not at all funny. I couldn't believe what I was watching and it went on and on.

I turned off the show after that. We all know that SNL has been struggling with trying to be funny for years now but with sketches like this that border on R rated violence it is not at all funny and sinks to a new level of sickness.

Are they that obsessed with Trump that they are willing to turn their show into one big anti Trump political statement? Have they moved that far Left?

I think they have gone way to far with their Trump bashing.
Wait...are you getting your feelings hurt because someone is making fun of Trump? If you are, you've got a tough 4 years ahead of you.

I haven't watched in years, i've seen some of the stuff on Trump but it reminds me why I stopped watching the show so long ago.

I love Alec's impersonations of Trump. They're spot on!

I've actually had liberal friends get a little angry with me when I've said that I'm not watching the SNL skits, or that I didn't find the skits particularly funny. I guess they need to feel vindicated, and they can't handle it when one of their friends sees things a little differently.

The "so-called" President and his ardent orangeflakes are one and the same. Thin skinned. Even comedy has to favor them.

I thought the Kellyanne skit was hilarious. She is a devious woman and the take on her fatal attraction was spot on. I also really enjoy the Sean Spicer skits. I hadn't watched SNL for years until the Alec Baldwin as Trump skits began appearing.

SNL appeals to younger, more liberal people, so it's not surprising that many Trump supporters find it distasteful. Just change the channel.
