I dunno, it seemed pretty one note to me, and as large targets as both Trump and his Keeper/Skank are, I didn’t laugh once. It just wasn’t funny to me. Baldwin was much more hilarious. ---

> [@Chronos](#): > > Eh, I like her better when she’s a crazy technosupernatural engineer. [Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8hfSKLU9vs), have 9 minutes of Kate McKinnon outtakes from Ghostbusters. Shush, keep it under your hat, this threads about SNL’s KAC skit. HAH HAH, the bit with the ice cream killed me! ---

I love Kate McKinnon as Hillary and as Conway, but I really really hope Baldwin wins a guest starring Emmy, because that would make Trump go absolutely ballistic. ---

Ooh. Saw that sketch the other day and had to watch it twice! What makes it funnier for me is that my daughter and I were just wondering when KAC gets to sleep or have a day off, given the fact that she’s having to do damage control at such an early hour. I’d love to be in the studio during one of her spin sessions and see what kind of faces she makes when the camera is off. Of course, I’m also just waiting for a news host to ask her if she has actually gotten paid yet. ---

Trump’s character on the show wasn’t as bad as his real character, but he was still pretty vile. One would still have to be some kind of idiot to want that character as president. ---

> [@gaffa](#): > > SNL is relentless in their pursuit of YouTube clips. Obviously, they’re wanting to make sure nobody discovers if the show is worth watching again. > My favorite clip of her was on a webcast show called _Celesbians_ about openly gay women in Hollywood. Adult film legend Nina Hartley shows the audience how to correctly pull hair, demonstrating on co-host Kate McKinnon. At the end of the clip, McKinnon wanders off the set, bumping into things, saying she has to find the bathroom. Just for the record, this post misattributes a quote from me to **friedo**. ---
