I was impressed with how SNL went after Trump last night, which could have presented a bit of a challenge just after the Syrian Bombings. In addition to some more obvious jokes, they had their Faux Trump say, in an address to Red State Trumpsters depicted in a surprisingly (for SNL) non-condescending and fairly sympathetic way, who were asking about better jobs, that he was committed to making sure they and thier children and grandchildren could always work in the coal mines. When they guy begins to point out that he just wants good paying jobs, not necessarily in the coal mines (no doubt he would have gone on to explain that working in the mines is hard and dangerous), Trump interrupts them with a line that really captures so much about him:
"In Trump's America, men work in two places: Coal mines and Goldman Sachs." That is s level or two above "Trump has funny hair" or "Trump is a blowhard" or "Trump said pussy" jokes. I would like to know who to credit for it. I also enjoyed again Louis CK. I don't think he mentioned his Netflix special, but I assume that is what his SNL hosting was meant to promote. I have not seen it yet - does anyone know if his mini-monologue last night had material from the Special? I really liked it, though I kind of expected him to button it up by ending with a reference to the animal joke theme he started out with - that fact that he didnt made me think maybe he had taken it from the Special. He was very good in the sketches also, and I wasn't even annoyed by the breaking he and McKinnon did in the last sketch. -- Sent from Gmail Mobile -- -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
