HRC on SNL?

Looking at her schedule. I think she might have time to fit in a few minutes Saturday Night. (And rehearsal, if need be) My prediction is yes.

They'd have to give Mr. Deplorable equal time on their stations and deal with the uproar from the deplorables. I would love it if she showed up with a bat behind Michael Che's smug unfunny ass though.

They didn't offer the other candidates their own hosting slot.

So... I guess they broke the rules.

Lorne must be beside himself.

GOP contenders John Kasich, Mike Huckabee, James Gilmore and Lindsey Graham filed “equal time” requests with NBC and the network gave 12 minutes of free airtime (the same amount of time Trump was on air during SNL) to each campaign during prime-time hours on Nov. 27 and Nov. 28, as well as during “SNL” on Nov. 28. The time was be granted across 18 affiliate stations that broadcast in all or part of three early-voting states.

That's what the rule required.

Donald probably doesn't have the time to file between now and Tuesday, but the big public blowup (because he whines and the M$M airs it on repeat.) over whether a candidate is being treated fairly is not something that's needed in the final days of the race. "Hillary Clinton getting special treatment" is not the closing message that the Clinton campaign wants to project

If she wins ( and I think she will) I think a skit with Kate as Hillary and Hillary as Val next week would be an appropriate end to the craziness
