As Twitchy readers know, SNL's 50th Anniversary show was a big ol' stinky dog turd. Many of us tuned in to watch the oldies from way back when the show was still funny, and while there were a few compilations and shout-outs, the new skits were so bad and so painful that many turned it off. Especially after Tom Hanks awkward appearance on Black Jeopardy as a dumb, racist Trump supporter.
Not only was it awkward and unfunny, but the crowd itself seemed uncomfortable and went quiet. You could tell the performers knew it was bombing as well. Scott Jennings points out that Hanks is ensuring Democrats never win again.
So, thanks, Tom.
Add another chapter to the book “Why We May Never Lose Again.” Unbelievably offensive. They’ve learned nothing. https://t.co/7Geqszjafc

Bingo.
Even after a massive loss to Trump, they still don't get it. Maybe it's ego, or maybe they simply can't accept it because then they would have to accept that they've been wrong all along. But if they don't figure it out soon, as Jennings said, they will never win again. Americans are tired of it.
There was a poll the week before this “skit” that had Trumps approval at +60%.

So @nbc decides to bump those numbers up to 70%.
Tom Hanks is yet another celebrity who kept the lie going....

Screw him
They can’t help themselves. They hate the average American.

Hollywood looks down on the very people who made them wealthy and famous.
