L-R: Baldwin as Trump, McCarthy as Spicer, and Fey as Palin

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington, D.C.) – You may have seen the last of President Donald Trump, Press Secretary Sean Spicer and Sarah Palin on television — at least on ‘Saturday Night Live’ (SNL). Or Hillary Clinton for that matter.

Today, Trump signed his latest Executive Order, this one banning actors from impersonating public officials and other politicians on TV.

The order came just minutes after the popular TV show aired its latest episode.  It featured a skit mimicking White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer and his outburst during a recent press briefing.  Actress Melissa McCarthy played the role of Spicer.

In recent months, SNL had featured Donald Trump the candidate and the president, impersonated by Alec Baldwin.

In past years, Tina Fey had played the role of then VP candidate and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

At least nine different performers have played the role of Hillary Clinton on SNL, including Kate McKinnon.

In explaining the new Executive Order, (the real) Sean Spicer said that the ban had nothing to do with politics or egos.  “Rather,” he said, “the president felt that the actors were doing ‘a terrible job’ mimicking the politicians.”

Donald Trump Calls For Press Conference On The Exact Day And Time As Super Bowl Half-Time Show

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – It must be related to his insecurity or attention deficit disorder, but President Donald Trump wants to prove to America that he is more popular than Lady Gaga.

Lady Gaga, as we all know, will perform during Sunday’s Super Bowl LI’s half-time show in what is considered the most-watched television spectacle.

Today, The White House announced that Donald Trump will go on live television to make a very important announcement.  The president will go live at exactly the same as the half-time show and has asked all the news and cable networks to cover his annoucement.

Press Secretary Sean Spicer has declined to say what Trump’s announcement will be about, but he assured the American people that it will be much more important and spectacular than Lady Gaga’s performance.

 

Donald Trump Upset That His Documentary Was Snubbed By The Oscars

img_8681HOLLYWOOD, California (The Adobo Chronicles, Los Angeles Bureau) – Americans know that President Donald Trump gets upset so easily, especially on things like news reports on the number of people who attended his inauguration, or the fact that he lost the popular vote in the last election to Hillary Clinton.  But nothing has upset him more than being snubbed by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

When the Academy announced the list of Oscar nominees today, one film was missing: “Trumped.” It is a documentary film about — who else — Donald Trump, and how he pulled off one of the greatest upsets in modern history.

(Trump seems unaware of Academy rules about which films qualify for nominations in any given year.  His documentary may be eligible for next year).

The documentary will premiere Friday at the Sundance Film Festival.
