'SNL' Isn't Done With The Trump Jokes Yet

November 20, 2016

If you've been watching "SNL" this season, you know the drill by now: The show opens with a sketch primarily focused on making fun of President-elect Donald Trump. It's been a recurring feature of the show, and a popular one.

But Trump seems pretty over it.

I watched parts of @nbcsnl Saturday Night Live last night. It is a totally one-sided, biased show - nothing funny at all. Equal time for us?

... Awkward.

It didn't help that the show made fun of just about everything that's been happening with the Trump campaign as he transitions to the White House. The sketch covered David Duke, the former Ku Klux Klan leader who keeps announcing his support for Trump, that awkward meeting with Mitt Romney and the whole Mike Pence "Hamilton" fiasco. Oh, and they had Trump ask, "Siri, how do I kill ISIS?" before realizing he was talking to a BlackBerry. That's a lot of shade to throw in a six-minute sketch.
