His Bernie in the cold open was again spot-on, great satire not fawning over his greatness, so I was expecting that to ruffle feathers among the Ber-lievers.

I mean...getting upset over the show mocking a group that put a "bounty" on disruption...complete silly season.

I thought the sketches Trump was in were largely boring and unfunny, not untypical for this SNL group. I don't think it did anything positive for his campaign.
