Trump Claims Saturday Night Live Is Colluding With Democrats And Russia, Threatens FCC Action
- 5 years ago
President Trump on Sunday threatened action against Saturday Night Live.
President Trump blasted "shows like Saturday Night Live," calling them "one sided" and saying they must be colluding "with the Democrats and, of course, Russia!"
The president made the comment in a pair of tweets Sunday.
"It's truly incredible that shows like Saturday Night Live, not funny/no talent, can spend all of their time knocking the same person (me), over & over, without so much of a mention of 'the other side.' Like an advertisement without consequences. Same with Late Night Shows," Trump tweeted.
"Should Federal Election Commission and/or FCC look into this?" Trump added. "There must be Collusion with the Democrats and, of course, Russia! Such one sided media coverage, most of it Fake News. Hard to believe I won and am winning. Approval Rating 52%, 93% with Republicans. Sorry! #MAGA."
Trump's attack came the morning after Saturday Night Light reran an episode from December 15 which, according to The Hill, "opened with a parody of 'It's a Wonderful Life,' which illustrated what the world would be like had Trump never been elected president."
