That's just absolutely not true. As long as the show is funny, people will watch. Only unfunny people gets run off stage and they can be either conservative or liberal. Just look at Collin Quinn, he is as right-wing as they come but he is funny, so people go watch him.

The problem is comedian like Collin Quinn is more rare than a three-head snake. Conservatives are just not funny. There was a right-wing show that tried to mimick the Daily Show a while back it was the most uncomfortable boring thing I've watched in a while. When conservatives make jokes, they tend to end up looking like Ann Coulter.

Trump makes those gestures all the time.. as far back as 2005.

Looks just like his regular mannerisms to me.

Maybe Trump will just cancel SNL. He can do that, right?

You honestly expect anyone to believe those 2 imitations are the same? They're not even close. His voice is entirely different and he's not using the same hand gestures.

Anyway, if someone doesn't like SNL, he/she doesn't need to watch it. It's that simple.

Then again what does Ivanka care?. Her clothes line is up 300% in sales so far this year. I am sure she is tuning into the really and truly "failing SNL" every Saturday night. Yeah right.


SNL is "wasting their time" by doing skits about the most controversial president ever? Um, have you ever heard of the show?


The show knows the skits "are so tired now", that's why they keep doing them?


The show is failing, even though it has the highest ratings in years?




You seem very smart. No, really.

A blind man could see that Trump was absolutely making mocking gestures regarding that reporter. Trump supporters choose to see it differently and make excuses for him, but it is right there for all to see.


Trump is a pig. (sorry pig)

Liberal SNL? No, they hate everyone! I remember a show about people getting b*** hurt by Obama when he was pres. And they really excoriated Bernie!

I still think Tina Fey's impersonation of Sarah Palin is #1. Larry Sanders was very funny as Bernie Sanders too.
