[quote]Donald Trump says a spoof sketch about him on long-running US TV show Saturday Night Live is a "hit job".
Alec Baldwin has been playing the US presidential nominee for the past few weeks, alongside Kate McKinnon as Hillary Clinton.
In a tweet, Mr Trump said that Baldwin's portrayal "stinks" and furthered his claims that the media was rigging the election.
Donald Trump co-hosted the show himself in 2015.[/quote]

I think Donald Trump himself stinks
I agree, the writing is pretty subpar. It's nothing like the Tina Fey / Amy Poehler days.
I'd have laughed more at the snippets I've seen if SNL wasn't so pro-Hillary. I don't like him either, not as rabid about it, but SNL's super left attitude since around late Ferrell days left me not wanting to pay attention to most of it anymore.
does anyone have a video that works outside of america ?

How is Hillary super left?

Not sure if not wanting Trump in office is super left. Certainly wouldn't describe Clinton as a left-wing candidate.

I think it's probably more that because Clinton is a fairly ordinary nominee, and Trump is anything but, that the depictions are inevitably going to come off as more sympathetic to Clinton, considering Trump's own comments could pass for satire as is. Unless you want to exaggerate Clinton to such an extreme to keep up with Trump's persona, she'll always look like the more reasonable person in any skit.

I suppose they good have made fun of her allegations and FBI investigations more. I still thought this was pretty funny though. Who the fuck cares about which side they're on it was funny.
The political SNL skits are alright, my expectation's aren't that high from the start. What's laughable is again how insecure and oversensitive Trump is. It encourages people TO make more fun of him tbh.
thing about SNL is that it makes the most predictible jokes you'd expect after watching the real debate. Most of the satisfaction from watching the skit is just getting reaffirmation of things everyone already thought of when they watched it themselves. The impressions are at least pretty spot on.
I'm saying SNL has, for at least 20 years now, been very one-sided when it comes to making fun of politics. I'm just not a fan of that. Make fun of everyone or nobody.
That's why I love South Park. The episodes around election time are fuckin' great.
His portrayal of Trump is pretty bad. I don't even get the whole not completing sentences bit. That's not even something Trump is known for.
