Trump returns on SNL, finds governing more difficult than campaigning
Last week’s Saturday Night Live avoided the issue of how the show was going to take on president-elect Donald Trump, with Kate McKinnon’s shell-shocked Hillary Clinton singing a heartfelt goodbye to the presidency (and calling on those equally stunned at the prospect of a Trump administration to keep on fighting). That task fell to last night’s Kristen Wiig-hosted episode, which began with Alec Baldwin reprising a role that he’s not particularly excited to play for the next four years. But what choices does the show have beyond putting a wig and orange face paint on Baldwin? A Trump puppet on the hand of Beck bennett’s perennially shirtless Vladimir Putin? An emergency hire of Anthony Atamanuik?
