A real shame she just sucks at running for president.
It would take forever to find the article, but I remember reading that one of his assistants clips out news articles mentioning him and he reads them over at his desk every day. That was back during the business days, though, before all this nonsense.

Yeah, on point or not, this was painfully unfunny. I don't like Baldwin's impression at all.

Yep. Back to the Bush era of jokes.

briefly mentioned here but I swore I heard about it years ago. There are services you can pay who will do this for you, and it's actually quite normal for celebrities to employ these services... but it's usually to assist their PR team rather than give them an ego boost while they are drinking orange juice in the morning.

Maybe in the past, but today a tape like that would take hours to consume each day. He has his favorite shows, and I'm sure his advisors brief him on specific reports that crop up.
I've yet to see a better Trump impersonation than Baldwin's. Bonus points for pissing off the orange cancer himself.

How can anybody like Trump? If anybody or any organization makes a joke about him or criticizes him he lashed out like a child. Every single time.

This is the most reasonable thing I've heard from him.

Baldwin's isn't that great. He just does that one face the whole time while real Trump has a very expressive face. Darrell Hammond did a much better job.
100% real, yep.
It's sad.
Here's most of them:

I wonder if Lorne ever actually tries to influence what airs or if he leaves it to the writers.

I'm pretty sure Trump can only get off if he sees his name is trending on twitter.
Yeah, Colbert's speech set the standard for every single one after that. I would think Colbert would be a great person to do the dinner, but I doubt Republicans would let Colbert get within 3 miles of the venue.
Well if you'd like to have some insight on how much hand a creator like Lorne has in a show like SNL, check out 30 Rock. There's a Lorne character on there played by... ALEC BALDWIN
conspiracy confirmed etc
Since it's all about making America great again, aka bringing America back in time, it'll be an incredibly old comedian that tells "take my wife, please" type jokes and yanks on his collar for effect.

That also explains alt-right behavior of reading publications they constantly claim they hate.
sounds like your average SNL fan.. i can relate.
Pretty sure such practices are standard for anyone with a significant public profile.

I felt they should've toned down how stupid he was and the segment of seeing the people who he retweeted wasn't really funny. However, I still felt the segment was overall funny and they went in on some things. Especially when Steve Bannon appeared and the distraction of the media part.
If this election had gone the other way, Alec Baldwin probably would've been playing Bill Clinton.

I'll be honest Baldwin's version isn't the best
It's easy to bring up but I'm really starting to think that some people have seen this film and those people decided that it was actually the sane thing to pursue.

The best I've seen was the impersonator that came on @Midnight with Chris Hardwick. But, SNL wouldn't use him because he's not a celebrity

Now it makes sense to me. Internet causes growing awareness among white people of differing perspectives, half of those white people sense they're losing power even slightly and go apeshit.

Hahahaha our president y'all
#teamjacob salty as fuck that they lost the election.
She did win all three debates, but she and her campaign made 2 crippling mistakes:
1) Taking workers/ Unions for granted in the rust belt
2) Thinking progressives would be grown up enough in Fl, Oh, Pa, Nc, Mi and Wi to realize how F'ed up it would be to have Trump as President and get over their dislike of Hilary Clinton viewed through 25 years of GOP optics.
