After the show, Trump tweeted several compliments posted by fans.

Trump, “The Apprentice” host and presidential aspirant, told Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly on Friday that he “had to” turn down certain skits for the “SNL” episode because a few of them contained too dirty acts.

For all his television experience, Trump is still an ungainly performer – as are manySNL” guest hosts – but the writers did a good job of working him in.

The previous high was held by an episode that aired January 7, 2012, hosted by Charles Barkley with musical guest Kelly Clarkson. He did not go into details. “Around 200 protesters marched from Trump Tower carrying signs with phrases like “#RacismIsntFunny”, and “Dump Trump”. You can expect them to skewer every topic and skewer it well. Of course it’s a joke, the whole show is a joke!

According to an article by Hollywood Life, Donald Trump was right in the middle of his monologue when a person from the audience heckled the billionaire businessman. “Most of the sketches involving Trump were weak, timid or predictable” a TV Columnist Maureen Ryan wrote.

“Kate McKinnon was born stupid”.

“I love SNL… SNL loves me”. It featured the Mexican president showing up at the Oval Office to deliver a check for the huge wall that Trump built to keep Mexicans out.

By then, Syria is at peace.

“If you think that’s how it’s going to be when I’m president, you’re wrong”.

Hillary Clinton appeared on the sketch comedy show for three minutes and 12 seconds. Only one of those – the Rev. Al Sharpton, in 2003 – was actively involved in a presidential bid at the time.

Saturday Night Live has become notorious for its comedic political commentary.
