Last night SNL spent much of the show mocking the Trump presidency.

You know that absolutely NOBODY takes you seriously when even your doctor gets ridiculed on late night TV shows.

During my favorite part of he show, Weekend Update, the mocking continued.

Is there ANYBODY that Kate McKinnon cannot play on television?

This was almost as good as her Jeff Sessions.

Next up, Stormy Daniels.

Yep, we all "got a Stormy" alright. Lucky us.

Trump recently made the comment that he will win reelection because cable news shows, and reporters, will not want to see him leave office, because they make money writing about him.

That of course is bullshit.

However I have to imagine that late night comedy will certainly shed a tear or two when he is dragged kicking and screaming from the Oval Office.

Nah, just kidding. They will probably be applauding right along with the rest of us.

The SNL cold open last night was exactly what we needed.

By far my favorite part was the reappearance of Kate McKinnon as Hillary Clinton, saying "Lock him up."

Especially since it echoes chants from actual protesters directed at Trump that same day.

And Michael Flynn was not left out of the fun either.

I love the smell of Schadenfreude in the morning.

Kellyanne Conway returns to Saturday Night Live.

I am posting this simply because I love it so much.

I am in fact a huge fan of Stephen King, and just recently watched the movie "It," so this made me laugh out loud.

Kellyanne Conway as Pennywise seems almost too perfect.

Oh, I almost forgot, Alec Baldwin was back as well.

This impersonation is becoming so accurate it's almost scary.

Alec Baldwin and Kate McKinnon big winners for SNL at last night's Emmy Awards.

Courtesy of Slate:  

Given his obsession with ratings and his television fixation, there’s a good chance Donald Trump spent his Sunday night seething in front of the TV as he watched the Emmy Awards turn him into a punching bag. (Well, mostly.) Alec Baldwin, whose much-lauded impression of Trump on Saturday Night Live earned him an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series, couldn’t resist getting in his own dig at the president, beginning his acceptance speech by saying, “I suppose I should say: At long last, Mr. President, here is your Emmy.” 

Baldwin was referencing Trump’s long-running complaint that the Emmys were somehow rigged against The Apprentice—a claim he repeated during a presidential debate with Hillary Clinton, footage of which was shown during Sunday’s ceremony. Baldwin continued his speech with another Trump burn: “I want to thank my wife. My wife and I had three children in three years, and we didn't have a child last year during the SNL season. I wonder if there's a correlation there. All you men out there, you put that orange wig on, it's birth control. Trust me.” Kudos to whoever’s job it was to keep Trump off of Twitter for the duration of the evening.

Baldwin was not the only SNL cast member to win an Emmy for their amazing portrayal of a candidate last night.

So did this incredibly talented performer.

(You will notice that Kate actually thanked Hillary whereas Alec merely mocked Trump. I think that says a lot.)

Alec Baldwin is great, don't get me wrong, but in my opinion Kate McKinnon may be one of the most talented cast members that SNL has every had in its stable.

I swear literally every time I see her onscreen she is killing it.

And her portrayal of Hillary Clinton was amazing.

SNL has most successful season in decades, receives 22 Emmy nominations.

Courtesy of HuffPo: 

Following its most successful season in more than two decades, “Saturday Night Live” secured 22 Emmy nominations on Thursday, the most in its decades-long history.

The NBC variety show transformed into something more over the course of its 42nd season, as millions of liberal-minded people across the country looked to Lorne Michaels and his cast to help make sense of the country’s election of President Donald Trump. 

That interest was reflected in its ratings ― it was the most watched season in more than two decades ― and now in its Emmy nominations, as the show bested its previous nomination record of 16, which it set in 2011 and tied last year.

Of course Alec Baldwin and Kate McKinnon were nominates, for Best Comedy Supporting Actor and Best Comedy Supporting Actress.

And that was well deserved indeed.

This season was the best one I have seen in quite a long time, and those two made it a joy.

I really think that SNL did a real public service with the skits showing Trump as Putin's puppet. It's just too bad that those in the heartland thing this is all left wing propaganda.

I had a lot of favorite sketches this last season, but I think the following was my all time favorites.

Hey, it made me appreciate Hillary Clinton a lot more.

Last night SNL's cold open was not to be missed. Update!

I swear this SNL cast may be one of the most talented in the history of the show.

My favorite by far is Kate McKinnon who seems to have no limit to her abilities.

Speaking of McKinnon, I think I kind of preferred her version of Hallelujah.

SNL is now going on their summer hiatus so we will not have their help in mocking the president and his cabinet, but I am sure that there are many others up to the challenge.

Update: Most watched season finally since 2011.

Last night SNL brilliantly trolled the Republicans over Donald Trump.

There was no Alec Baldwin or Melissa McCarthy last night, but that certainly did not stop SNL from creating some devastating political commentary.

I also really liked this bit with Kate McKinnon portraying Jeff Sessions as Forrest Gump.

For those who did not see "The Help" and are at a loss as to what the "special ingredient" is in Minny's pie just click here to find out. 

SNL is killing it. Killing it I say!

I swear that Melissa McCarthy is a shoo-in for an Emmy nomination.

Her Sean Spicer is one of the funnest things I have ever seen.

Don't get me wrong the rest of the show was damn good as well.

There was a segment with Alec Baldwin appearing as Trump in People's Court.

And a great Weekend Update segment with Kate McKinnon as Elizabeth Warren.

But then there was this bit with Kate once again reprising her role as Kellyanne Conway stalking CNN's Jake Tapper after he refused to allow her on his show because....well because she lies.

Okay that was both creepy as hell and amazing.

We already reported that SNL is getting the highest ratings in 22 years, and it is pretty clear they deserve it.

Like I said, they are KILLING it!

SNL does it again with cold open that skewers Donald Trump's relationship with Vladimir Putin.

So far Trump has not thrown a tantrum on Twitter about this segment, even though Alec Baldwin gave him a warning ahead of time.

Actually as much as I like this opening, I enjoyed Kate McKinnon's parody of "Love Actually" even more. I swear that every week McKinnon proves herself to be the most talented cast member the show has to offer this season.

Kate McKinnon singing Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" may the best SNL cold open ever, and just what this country needed.

I did not know what to expect from SNL last night, but I remembered worrying that I would not be able to laugh at Alec Baldwin's Donald Trump impersonation.

As it turned out I did not have to worry about that, because instead we were gifted with this beautiful song sung by perhaps the most gifted entertainer that SNL has today.

It was haunting, it was beautiful, and it was perhaps just what all of us needed after last Tuesday's terrifying outcome.

Let's end our day with something uplifting shall we? SNL's cold open from last night.

I don't know about all of you, but I really really needed that.

SNL takes on the third and final presidential debate, and yes it is awesome.

So many great lines.

Perhaps my favorite bit was when Alec Baldwin, playing Donald Trump,  suggested that Kate McKinnon, playing our next President, had not accomplished anything in the last thirty years, allowing her to launch into a listing of all of her past accomplishments.

There is also a shout out to Sarah Palin, as one of the "heavy hitters" that support Donald Trump, along with the best Baldwin brother, Stephen.

Donald Trump cries "hit job" as SNL brilliantly lampoons his debate performance.

Courtesy of the Washington Post: 

During SNL's cold open sketch about the presidential town hall debate, Alec Baldwin-as-Trump is asked about whether he likes kids and says, "I love the kids, okay? I love them so much I marry them." 

After it's pointed out that Trump has said Bill Clinton's accusers should be believed, Baldwin-as-Trump says of his own accusers: "They need to shut the hell up." 

And after stalking Clinton repeatedly during last week's town hall debate — something Trump denies he actually did — Baldwin-as-Trump is asked by a black man whether he can be a "devoted president to all the people." He responds by calling the man "Denzel" and launches into an answer about violence in the inner cities.

Then he uses it as a segue to call for putting Hillary Clinton in jail: "She's committed so many crimes, she's basically a black."

That was a great show last night. I especially loved Trump as the shark from "Jaws."

Now typically I would wait and make this my last post of the day, kind of like a palate cleanser for all of the unsavory news we have to absorb.

However what made this a more newsworthy item was that Trump was so irritated by the bit that they took to Twitter to respond.

Watched Saturday Night Live hit job on me.Time to retire the boring and unfunny show. Alec Baldwin portrayal stinks. Media rigging election!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 16, 2016

Yeah that Alec Baldwin portrayal stinks so bad it is quite likely to earn him an Emmy, just like the one that Tina Fey earned for her "stinky" impression of a certain politician back in 2008.

The show is great and you know the fact that it is getting under Trump's skin like this only reinforces that simple truth.  

Last night's SNL cold open.

So good last night, I laughed way to hard at Hillary Clinton "preparing" for today's debate.

But as good as Kate McKinnon was in that piece, she was brilliant in the Kellyanne Conway segment.

Apparently Conway has dropped off the face of the planet in the wake of that sexual harassment video featuring Donald Trump and Billy Bush.

She cancelled all of her Sunday morning show appearances and has remained off the radar since Friday. With  the exception of this one tweet this morning.

— Kellyanne Conway (@KellyannePolls) October 9, 2016

So it appears that she is still on the team, but no interested in facing the press.

Gee, I wonder why?

Now if you will excuse me I need to find that industrial size bowl for my popcorn before tonight's debate. 

For those who may have missed this last night. The SNL cold open featuring the Donald Trump Hillary Clinton debate.

Courtesy of The Daily Beast:  

At the top, Michael Che made a rare sketch appearance as moderator Lester Holt, who introduced a coughing Hillary Clinton and “the man to blame for the bottom half of all his kids’ faces,” Donald Trump. 

Baldwin got Trump’s podium-clutching and bizarre “China” pronunciations down perfectly. And while the real Trump waited until after the debate to complain about his microphone, he did so during the SNL debate. Beyond just interrupting Clinton with “wrong,” Baldwin’s Trump added “Shut up!,” admitted a make out session with Sean Hannity, and referred to Holt as both “jazzman” and “Coltrane.” 

Just like the real Trump, Baldwin described Clinton in a way that sounded oddly familiar. “I have the best judgment, and the best temperament,” he said. “She’s the one with the bad temperament. She’s always screaming. She’s constantly lying. Her hair is weird and her face is completely orange. Except around the eyes where it’s white. Once she stops talking her mouth looks like a tiny little butthole.” 

Instead of responding, Clinton yielded her two minutes back to Trump, who went on an unprovoked rant about “the blacks.” Asked by Holt what she thought about Trump’s comments at one moment, Clinton said, “I think I’m going to be president.” After another of his rants, she said she didn’t have a response, “more of a request: can America vote right now?”

I had a great time watching this last night, and absolutely LOVED Kate McKinnon's Willy Wonka inspired entrance. And seriously it seems Alec Baldwin was born to play Donald Trump, just like his former co-star Tina Fey was born to play Sarah Palin.
