NO, he has lost it! LOL LOL LOL

Donald J. Trump ?@realDonaldTrump 9m9 minutes ago

I watched parts of @nbcsnl Saturday Night Live last night. It is a totally one-sided, biased show - nothing funny at all. Equal time for us?

This is for real...not a fucking joke...

[spooky3]

1. He didn't like the QVC skit?

[boston bean]

3. Not sure. I have to go watch it.

[spooky3]

13. I meant it as a joking comment that there was

A lot on the show that had nothing to do with him, but being the narcissist that he is, either he interprets everything as related to him, or he's uninterested in anything else.

[Hortensis]

64. Sounds too "together" to be Trump himself. I mean,

suggesting "equal time" instead of calling Alec Baldwin "the dumbest loser ever, I mean the dumbest, what a loser!" and Kate McKinnon a "4"?

But he almost certainly saw it, and if he did, we KNOW he hated it.

[spooky3]

66. Good point

[DawgHouse]

56. That was funny!

[dhol82]

2. He's going to be really pissed for four years.

[workinclasszero]

4. The man baby-in-charge aint seen nothing yet!

[Auggie]

36. Yes! Keep working that ego. He'll destroy himself sooner than later.

[cilla4progress]

41. This is what I'm clinging to

For survival. Sometimes I'm so sure of it, other times I'm overwhelmed by the immensity of the regressive movement in this country!

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

7. Small consolation... would much rather have watched SNL sing the praises of Bernie, through Larry David, for 8 years...

guess we'll just have to wait 4 years for that to happen. At least, that Nazi racist pig tRump won't be taken seriously and will get exposed for the jack-booted Rethug that he is! (Can't hurt our chances in 2020!!)

[boston bean]

8. Can you please remove that sig pic. it is breaking the rules. It is way too large..

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

11. Oh okay... my apologies. I'll definitely check and conform with the rules. Thanks for the head's up.

[MoonRiver]

14. Hope not. I would like to win in 2020.

We need a progressive, charismatic, young, nominee. VP is almost irrelevant. Don't know who that charismatic nominee would be, but I am sure someone will appear in the next 2 years. And before you accuse me of ageism, my husband is Bernie's age.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

16. I totally respect your opinion and agree charisma is ESSENTIAL in a candidate... curious who you think is more charismatic than Bernie with equal or greater leadership skills...

Would gladly consider that (younger) person as a potential alternative.

[MoonRiver]

19. Depends on what younger person you are talking about.

Bernie will be 79 to 80 during the next presidential election. Do you really think that's not too old? PLUS, he did lose the primary, which doesn't portend well. Btw, I also do NOT support another run by Hillary.

[PatSeg]

22. Being close in age to Bernie,

I have to say, it is really time for a younger generation. I thought so in this election and was surprised by our choices. As for Bernie, a person does not have to be president to be an effective leader. He can accomplish much more outside the White House.

[tblue37]

28. And the same is true for Elizabeth Warren. nt

[MoonRiver]

33. Agree

[JudyM]

46. Wth? If he is speaking for millenials, by their show of support, how is your comment not ageist?

He articulated positions they clearly care deeply about. He had abundant energy. So what is the problem? His chronological age?!

And to play off your own comment, "a man does not have to be young to be president."

[PatSeg]

48. I think you are overreacting

I thought it was time for some new blood and my generation has had a lot of control for a long, long time. That being said, I love Bernie's ideas and hoped I'd see some of them become reality in my lifetime, but as a realist, I had my doubts if that was possible.

[JudyM]

57. We need "new blood" you say... how about something far more important, like a candidate

whose *platform issues* centered on getting influence peddling out of congress? If you think it's overreacting to call out blatant ageism, and that's exactly what you've now restated, this time in a euphemism "new blood" - maybe you don't understand the brutal concept of bias against a person on the basis of their age. Not their ideas, not their energy level, just their age.

[PatSeg]

59. At my age,

I can assure that I do understand the concept of bias against a person on the basis of their age, not just the concept, but the actual reality. I'm sorry if you thought that was ageism, it was most certainly NOT. I am of an age group that has dominated everything for decades. We out numbered everyone, we were a force to be reckoned with and we brought about great change. I want to believe that there are generations behind us who can take the baton and carry on.

I don't know what your problem is, but feel free not to respond to this comment. You are reading things that aren't there and yelling at someone you do not know. You really have no idea who you are talking to.

[JudyM]

60. You demonstrate no understanding of implicit bias. Your age makes no difference.

Discrediting a person solely on the basis of their age is ageist, pure and simple. If you don't like the label maybe look at your beliefs. Prejudice gets called out here on DU. That's not yelling.
And I am also a senior.

[PatSeg]

63. And you demonstrate no understanding

of what I was saying. I did not discredit anyone "solely on the basis of their age". I just suggested perhaps it was time for a younger generation. My first choice would have been Joe Biden. I'm just in the process of letting go, knowing my generation does not have a monopoly on liberal values or at least shouldn't.

[alfredo]

37. Ben Affleck has charisma and a much greater grasp of reality than Trump.

[PatSeg]

43. Well, Trump is a pretty low bar!

Doesn't get much lower.

[tavalon]

62. Elizabeth Warren

[n2doc]

5. Hey Don- Bring back the Fairness Doctrine!

That'll fix it, bigly.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

9. LOL! Good one!

[mountain grammy]

29. Oh yeah!

[handmade34]

6. oh, he's the butt of the joke

and he just doesn't get it

[spanone]

10. boo hoo hoo....poor baby

the narcissist in him must love it

[barbtries]

12. free speech Donald, free speech.

you're not satisfied with the billions in free advertising you got during the campaign?

there's no giving this asshole a chance. there can only be ceaseless resistance. he is not capable of changing, he is a very sick man.

[livetohike]

15. No dignity, no decency, no compusure, no intellect. Four years

of this embarrassing pos and his deplorable family.

[smirkymonkey]

31. Hear, hear!

Although I doubt he will make it through 4 years. He hasn't even been inaugurated yet and already there is talk of his impeachment.

[livetohike]

38. I don't think he will make it either. He may not make it to

Inauguration Day!

[bdamomma]

47. oh he will the neo nazis are celebrating

for jan 20th

[Native]

44. and obviously no sense of humor!

[BeyondGeography]

17. He proves it every day

[BootinUp]

18. Apparently a lot of Americans wanted

a President that tells them what comedy is funny, what to think etc. We are just too stupid to understand concepts like humor.

[femmocrat]

20. Are there any links to the skit that offended him?

For those of us who missed it? Thank you!

[dhol82]

52. Just go to YouTube

The video should be up already.
It's the cold opening for last night.

[Equinox Moon]

21. Look dumpman, there is no "us and them"

[rurallib]

23. Equal Time? Call Reagan you whiny little bitch!

[lpbk2713]

24. Perspective counts for a lot.

Trumpie is objectivity challenged.

[Ilsa]

25. I hope SNL does Obama or Hillary as president

for the next four years. That should drive trump nuts.

[Baitball Blogger]

26. I think Trump's ego isn't prepared for the hit he's going to take in the night-time

comedy hour. First, it's going to get ugly as he abuses his power and tries to exact his revenge, and at some point, lights are going to start coming on over this country.

[DesertRat]

27. He HOSTED SNL last year

[mainstreetonce]

30. Every TV show needs to do material mocking Trump

Police shows need corpses named Trump. Hospital shows need dying victims named
Trump. The Biggest Loser needs a fat guy named Trump. The Bachelor needs a reject named Trump.

Don't let SNL be the only show having fun.

[smirkymonkey]

32. Get a sense of humor you loser!

God, he is so pathetically childish and self-absorbed!

[lonestarnot]

34. Did he forget this is "big league" "bigly".... this is first grade fucking behavior and that thing

is going to be in the oval office.

[Dem2]

35. The more he complains...

He's really an intellectual infant. We're in for a lot of entertainment in between the vileness. I hope the bigotry can be contained by distracting the fool with stuff like this.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

39. If he can't handle a TV show

How is he going to handle ISIS?

[MFM008]

40. No. No equal time for you

You whiny maggot.

[Skittles]

42. he is a complete embarassment

SHAME ON EVERYONE WHO VOTED FOR THIS FRAUD

[cilla4progress]

55. This

Think about him on the world stage.

What a laughing-stock we are for having him as our President. International travel should be fun now. Why doesn't the right - establishment and the rest - see this?

If that's all the shit comes down, we'll be lucky.

[Skittles]

68. I cannot BELIEVE now many idiots think the presidency should be turned into a REALITY TV SHOW

WTF WERE THEY THINKING

[Kablooie]

45. He lost it a long time ago but, damn it, he's the president and it affects nothing.

[Scampy]

49. He can have his equal time, easily!

If he wants equal time all he has to do is start his own tv network and come up with his own comedy show. Didn't the repukes already try that and fail miserably a few years ago because they are incapable of being funny?

[McCamy Taylor]

50. ROFLMAO

So now, anyone who wants to become famous only has to mock Trump, wait for him to explode on Twitter and then soak up all the applause. There is a phrase Trump ought to know well--"You can't buy publicity like that." I am guessing he must be going senile to be giving so much attention to people who obviously want the atention.

I guess I better get started on a satirical book mocking Trump. What kind of animal should he be?

[Mc Mike]

51. Equal time? Hypocritical whine from the head of the party that killed the Fairness Doctrine.

[NastyRiffraff]

53. So, this is the president-elect

He has NO IDEA of what is to come. What he's seen so far in the comedy shows is just the trailer. The full movie is going to be relentlessly mocking.

[Sunny05]

54. boston bean, you are good for us!

Thank you!

[McCamy Taylor]

58. It is now official. Trump not only has NO Teflon. He is fly paper

and shit will stick to him.

In order to have political Teflon, the POTUS needs to pretend to be a lovable dufus like W. or Ronnie. That way, the average Joe empathizes with him when he is the butt of jokes (that he, President Dufus, pretends not to understand). He is supposed to blame all his least popular political decisions on his VP or his wife or the corporate media. But Trump desperately wants to appear to be in control and smart--even when he obviously isn't. He has way too much ego to ever let anything roll off his back like water from a duck. He will point at any criticism and jump up and down, yelling and threatening retribution---

Which in turn will get ever comedian and artist and anyone who ever wanted to be famous in on the act of mocking him.

Thick skin is a requirement for public office. Witness Obama who has weathered 8 very rough years with a sense of humor.

Trump's skin is paper thin and covered with fly paper. Let the poo throwing begin!

[tavalon]

61. Yes, but the flurry of replies from Baldwin

Were sublime.

[JudyM]

67. They were good. SNL writers should gear up to start responding humorously to these tweets.

Can u imagine if that became a standard practice?! Would keep us laughing during the storm.

[Nitram]

65. "Equal time for us?" I'm sure he'd love to pass a law requiring SNL to give equal time

to skewering liberals. But then Fox Noise would have to give equal time to the truth...
