Oh, there is a clip of him laughing attached to this story:

But he doesn’t laugh much in public, apparently.

I saw it when it came out and (as some people mentioned when this was fresh) I thought he was a fairly good sport about it.

[Here is a clip](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf5BKAS5o6A&list=RDNf5BKAS5o6A#t=150). He absolutely does laugh in it.

He has no problem making fun of himself, either here or on SNL or letting a late night show host ruffle his hair. For his many other faults.

The saturation was a joke about that the audience was saturated with Sorrentino (eg had enough). And a good one too.

And I was hoping it was an actual roast, trump on a spit over a bonfire of Pence and Conway.
