Saturday Night Live...cowards did not do Trump winning cold open, stupid piano playing instead...

[Unkotare]

Best SNL all season, imo. The opener (Kate singing Hallelujah) was the perfect approach. But Dave Chappelle got us laughing again. I'll tell you what, as long as you keep closing your mind totally to what half the country thinks and wants, your opportunity as the clear winners will be hampered.

Yeah....you do realize that we won the Presidency, the House, the Senate, 33 governorships out of 50 and a majority of the State houses.....ending the reign of the house of clinton and the obama agenda.........right?

I do. And you have to begrudge us a 4 minute "funeral." Real magnanimous of you, Guy.

"Us"?

This circular arguing is not helpful. What I was advising was that the winners try listening to the losers and incorporating them into the Great Plan, rather than continuing to beat them about the head and turning them into shadow enemies that have no basis in reality.
You ARE the winners, are you not? Then act like winners, not losers.

Tell me again why so many progressive liberals have me on ignore... Oh that's right when a compromise other than the standard far right stance is suggested that grants progressives everything they seek they don't want to budge and their response is that the compromise goes too far. Yet many of the more conservative and moderate members would agree to the compromise.

*****CHUCKLE*****

If you had taken your own advice trump might not have been elected.

Where did I say I rooted for trump?

 

[theHawk]

Did you miss Dave Chapelle and his anti white tirade?

As soon as he made the first anti Trump joke, after no Trump victory skit, we turned the channel.

Actually, the skit with Dave Chappell and the white liberals was quite hilarious. He's basically not surprised at all the Trump won, and they are freaking out over it.

Chappell admitted he thought Trump would win before the election.

So....I haven't watched SNL for a few decades now.....it stopped being funny when wil ferrel came on board....and before that really.....but I have heard the Cold Open on various radio shows as they made fun of Trump and the Debates and so I tuned in Saturday night to see how they would handle Trump winning.....the comedy of it...since they are supposed to be comedians....instead, they had the comdian who played hilary play the Hallelujah song while she played piano.....what a dumb thing to do......on a comedy show.......

The funny part...when she sang the part of the song where the singer sings she told the truth ....that was really funny from a woman pretending to be hilary.....

SNL Holds Funeral For Hillary Clinton’s Political Career

If you tuned into last night’s SNL expecting to see a sketch about Donald Trump’s astonishing win, that’s not what you got. Instead, you got Kate McKinnon in her Hillary Clinton duds, singing the late Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” and crying.

No, seriously.

This show just jumped the sharkskin pantsuit. I know this is supposed to be cathartic for the Hillbots, but does SNL really think everybody else is as devastated by Hillary’s loss as they are? Do they really think any of the 60 million Trump voters were going to tune in and weep along with Kate? Don’t they understand that this sort of insularity is why the Democrats got blindsided on Tuesday night?

year ago, Donald Trump himself hosted SNL. Last month, they hired Alec Baldwin to play him. They had a great old time making fun of that big dummy. Lotsa laughs. Great ratings. And if Trump running for president made for such terrific gut-busting comedy, you’d think they could come up with some jokes about him actually winning. Some of that great SNL political satire. But for some reason, Baldwin doesn’t want to play Trump anymore. He didn’t show up for the entire episode.

Do you really think that if Trump had lost, Alec Baldwin would’ve missed a chance to twist the knife one more time? That dude lives for payback. At one point he was even feuding with his own daughter.

Pssy show

All through, this was the most racist show that may ever have been on network television.

Because there were black people in it?

More like when a woman said we have turned back to the bad old days of white presidents. There were too many racial insults in Weekend Update to isolate.

Too bad they didn't call obama a black bastard that should never have been elected in the first place.

I figured. Just slamming the wrong race, huh?

Did you miss Dave Chapelle and his anti white tirade?

The whole show was a anti white tirade.

Interesting take.

I calls them as I see's them. I watched the entire show, and the undertone was constant. My wife even got tired of it and went to bed.

I recorded it, so I am going to watch it again with that in mind.

I always record SNL. That way I don't have to listen to the music.

I'm WAY too old for the music. Always.

Anytime I can watch someone ridiculing this nation I am in full support oif it....I don't agree with rioting or violence but this nation is run by uber wealthy and they will ensure first that they get theirs. That's what the working class voters fail to see. Then they say there should be no class division. That really makes me lsaugh. If that makes me a traitor that's fine with me. Heck I'll wear the t shirt.

Thats what obama and his libtard army did for the last eight years and now you got to live wth the fact that TRUMP is your president.

I’m always amazed at people who turn on something that they know will upset them and act shocked that they didn’t enjoy it. It speaks to a special type of dumbness.

That being said, aside from the classy opening with Hillary’s stand in playing the piano singing “Hallelujah” (Kate McKinnon), I found it to be very unfunny myself. Almost as if it was the show after Sandy Hook or 9/11.

I wish my liberal friends would wake the f**k up. While Trump’s election is most likely a harbinger of darker days, it’s far from a human tragedy. That was signaled twice on the show even. When the female comic said something along the lines of, “This is the worst thing America has ever done” and Chappelle and Rock couldn’t help but crack up. Later it was addressed on WU when they pointed out that progress is rarely an arrow straight up. People have to be reminded that there are those who are going to oppose it just as there will be it’s sponsors who over-reach and self-sabotage.

I watched it again last night due to the posters who said it was racist.
It was REALLY anti-Trump. I can see why a lot of people were offended, but racist? Dave Chappelle is a black comedian. I did not see racist.
