1. That was ...

... absolute perfection.

[NWCorona]

15. Agreed!

[liberal_at_heart]

2. Another great one from SNL. Larry David is genious and Kate McKinnon does a good job

portraying Hillary too.

[Agschmid]

3. It was good!

[joshcryer]

4. God, destroying Trump is going to be so good.

[rhett o rick]

7. Yes if Sen Sanders does it. Otherwise, more of the same crap we've been getting.

[joshcryer]

10. SNL is going to make mincemeat of Trump.

Trump is going to lose so badly it's going to be freakishly hilarious.

[SusanCalvin]

11. God I hope so, but

Same thing was said about the primary.

[joshcryer]

12. I predicted Trump for awhile now.

I don't know why the pundits insisted on suggesting he wasn't a good pick. I think that they had way too much faith in the Republican establishment even though said establishment has not held power for a long time in reality (the tea baggers and far right wingers have been whittling away at their control).

[SusanCalvin]

13. True dat.

And the way they express surprise at what they have wrought is disgusting/hilarious.

[Demsrule86]

29. You are wrong

And despite St. Bernies assistance in attacking Hillary, Trump will not win. Bernie would lose badly but he won't be the candidate.

[bvf]

18. Yes, just like they did with Reagan, and Bushes I and II.

[mac56]

38. SNL is done for the summer.

Will not air new episodes till sometime in September.

I hope that is enough time to make the mincemeat.

[zappaman]

25. Congrats on winning the wet blanket award, Rick.

[Fawke Em]

20. Larry David makes money

Most of us DO NOT.

This isn't funny.

[msanthrope]

27. Lighten up, Francis! Nt

[DemocratSinceBirth]

37. I suspect Larry is a fan of Bernie.

[andym]

5. Brilliant comedy. nt.

[oldandhappy]

6. Great!

thanks for the post.

[pressbox69]

8. Lately I just call McKinnon

the Great Kate.

[SusanCalvin]

9. Oh that made me smile.

Two good people, or at least better than most that get that far in politics.

[Fawke Em]

22. She's not anywhere near good.

[senz]

26. I guess that's how it happens.

People just start calling someone "good" and it doesn't matter anymore what they've done, how they've lived their lives.

Except electing a president is serious business and has real consequences in the lives of people. Many considered Reagan a "good" person, and Bush too, for that matter. Sometimes "good" means nothing more than pleasant. A lot of people voted for Reagan and Bush because they thought they'd enjoy having a beer with them.

People should read this OP and think about it:

Life is not TV show.

[SusanCalvin]

31. I said "at least better than most that get that far in politics,"

And I do stand by that. In the case of Hillary, sadly - I sure didn't say they were equivalent.

Oh and this is the second time I've been accused, directly or indirectly, of being a Reagan Democrat because I said something mildly nice about Hillary. It's kinda starting to get old.

[senz]

34. I was responding to the thread.

Your voice was only one of several that surprised me, and Fawke Em was the only one who was paying attention. I have never considered you a Reagan Democrat. The point was not ideology, it was, as I said, those who respond to candidates based on superficial characteristics like how pleasant they seem.

I got the impression that people were so charmed by the "togetherness" theme that it didn't matter that Hillary took the lead in the dance and in the end got rid of Bernie into an elevator and then emerged the victor. That, IRL, would be a very sad result for the American people, no matter how temporarily cozy it might feel.

[SusanCalvin]

39. Yeah, I wouldn't want anyone to change their opinion of Hillary because of it.

And I haven't, of course.

[SusanCalvin]

32. See #31. nt

[pressbox69]

40. So true Susan

[Samantha]

14. OMG, this should be required viewing by all DU'ers

It is the big laugh we all need.

Sam

[Fawke Em]

23. Nope.

[Blue_Adept]

28. Good, good...

[NWCorona]

16. That was spot on! After this is over I'll gladly dance with anyone I've tangled with.

[Blue_In_AK]

17. Hillaryous.

[Fawke Em]

19. Boring...

Yawn.

[ProudProgressiveNow]

21. K&R nt

[barrow-wight]

They've really nailed both of them all season.

[PufPuf23]
