Parody of the president is a good thing. What always gripes me is SNL never lampooned Obama at all. Sycophantic cowards.
They did.
Portrayed, yes. Never mocked. Please to be finding some skit digging in on Obama and I'll concede.
The problem with being ridiculous is it produces a lot of well deserved ridicule. No one is buying the idea that Daddy is ordinary President flawed. He’s in a class by himself.
Huh?
Ask your nurse when she comes by.
Were you trying to say I have a problem with SNL going after Trump? That is not the case. Trump is stupid to make a fuss over it.
Then I think my comment was quite clear.
Not really. I'm not comparing Obama/SNL to Trump/SNL. I do agree Trump is in a class of his own. I'm looking backwards to Bush, Clinton & Bush to compare with Obama.
They are all a very ordinary level of flawed. You’d have to get to Nixon talking to portraits to approach the absurdity of this Presidency. And Nixon was having a breakdown. Daddy is mentally ill by nature.

I don't have time to debate this. I'm needed at the polo grounds.

Trump is stupid, thus it is far easier for comedians to make fun of him.

Not my poont.
No drama Obama basically hid his last 4 years. Literally his biggest comment his last four years was coming out for gay marriage.
Obama was super self conscious when it came to what he said, you guys made fun it with the teleprompter comments. He just didn't have mannerisms and such that allowed to be ridiculed.
They did bag on Hillary. They didn't really bag on McCain, but they did Palin. I remember the skit on 08 bagging on the DNC, with how they handled the debate between Obama and Hillary. Bush was kinda like Trump but in a different way. They bagged the shit out of Bill Clinton.
I am not going to go through all the Obama skits. I'm sure you can find where they bagged on him. But I would say, like anything else, they are looking for ratings. Bagging on Trump gave them good ratings. Bagging on Obama didn't.

There was plenty to dig into with Obama. You don't see it because you liked him so much, and that's fine. Problem is that SNL writers fell into the same fanboy trap. As you say, they went after everyone else, so why did Obama get a pass?
Re McCain, I saw a skit once that I haven't been able to find anywhere again. It was backstage at a debate, and the other candidates start laughing at McCain for something. But in McCain's mind, they transform into Viet Cong, complete with the conical hats and everything. Brutal and hilarious. Probably a good reason why it's not posted anywhere.

You can’t do a lot of Obama parody before you put the audience to sleep. And because he could be self-deprecating, he just didn’t present the giant inflatable ego that Daddy has. The targets aren’t alike.

Bill Clinton got it good most of the time.

Or this?
Hard hitting
My largest tax bill will have been for 2018.
There's just nothing other than Trump jokes. Nothing at all.
