The Donald appears to be dying.

[tavernier]

Very scant laughter and applause. Ivanka didn't even get one clap when she came on as surprise guest.

1. Oh it is horrible so far... Nt

[tavernier]

3. I thought it couldn't get any worse

until the Twitter skit. I felt sorry for the regulars and turned it off. Well, I lasted 20 minutes in the service of my fellow DUers so that no one else had to watch. 😄

[Warpy]

8. And I think most of us are deeply grateful for that

The young studio audience that SNL attracts isn't buying The Donald's narcissistic bullshit? Good for them.

I love the smell of flop sweat in the evening.

[Bucky]

2. That's pretty funny... how all the obvious applause lines seem to fail

Props to The Donald for finally figuring out the strategic advantage of pretending to have a bit of a sense of humor about himself

4. I had no idea that was actually his wife.

Shows how much I know...

[tavernier]

5. Was it???

In that case she has changed a lot in looks since giving birth. Stlll pretty but much less Show Girl/Trophy Wife.

10. It was his daughter, Ivanka, playing his daugther ivanka

Cecily Strong played Trump's wife.

6. SNL is not funny or even interesting. This is one time I don't

think Trump made it any worse.

15. It stopped being funny years ago.

[Jesus Malverde]

19. Perhaps a decade or more....nt

[Kalidurga]

7. LOL

I thought you were talking about the polls.

[daleanime]

9. Good...

oh, wait....you mean on stage. Never mind.

[tavernier]

11. And Good Grief, I realize he is fat

(In fact, Christie hasn't got that many pounds on him), but for a rich guy, he wore the cheapest and frumpiest suit I ever saw! Straight off the rack at Ross.

[alcibiades_mystery]

12. His suits are supremely ill-fitted

It's shocking. I heard on NPR they cost upwards of $7000. I could do better with off the rack at BR for $650. Who is dressing this guy???

[Purveyor]

13. Absolute fail... eom

[Baitball Blogger]

14. Do you think the audience is intentionally being difficult.

[840high]

16. The drunk was funny - the rest not so much.

[FrodosPet]

17. The three best things about this episode

Sia, Sia, and the closing credits music.

Everything else sucks about this once great show.

[pansypoo53219]

24. the news & michael che got some hits on tRUMP in.

[FrodosPet]

18. Sia - Alive

20. Good, am glad he was a failure on SNL. The sooner he and Carson get out

of the race, the better for the Democratic Candidate to debate the rest of the idiots remaining on the republican side. Most likely Ted Cruz, Jeb is a gonner.

[840high]

21. Actually SNL is a failure.

[akbacchus_BC]

23. You serious about SNL, the hype on CNN was unbelievable.

I cannot begin to tell you how many times I tried to find the TV station that aired SNL in Canada, could not find swat. I know they will have it all over CNN and MSNBC in the morning.

Why they airing this asshole is beyond me. All the candidates on the repub side are losers. The Dems have three great candidates, but am rooting for Mr. Sanders. We just got our best ever, a liberal, Mr. Justin Trudeau. Glad we got rid of Mr. Harper!

[beam me up scottie]

22. Argh.

This sucks even for SNL.
