NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – It was the highlight of last night’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ hosted by Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. While he was delivering his opening monologue, Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders was standing by backstage waiting for his cue.

Then it was time. As Trump was wrapping up his monologue, the cameras shifted backstage as Sanders screamed “Trump’s a racist!”

Trump said he was never informed that Sanders would be appearing on the same show and accused SNL producers of maliciously plotting to embarrass him.  He’s threatening to sue.

Meanwhile, Sanders said the only reason he agreed to the cameo appearance was because SNL gave him $5,000 towards his campaign.

FCC ORDERS SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE TO GIVE EQUAL TIME TO ALL CANDIDATES

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has ordered Saturday Night Live (SNL) to have each of the remaining 36 Republican presidential candidates host a future episode of the late-night comedy television show.

SNL had previously announced that Donald Trump will host the November 7 episode, prompting complaints from the rest of the Republican  candidate field.

FCC rules mandate that if free airtime was granted to a candidate over the public airwaves, equal time had to be made available to his or her opponent, if it was requested.

Well, all of Trump’s opponents requested equal time.

So there you have it, for 35 weeks after November 7  viewers will be treated to a GOP presidential candidate hosting SNL, starting with Ben Carson.

On the Democratic side, since Hillary Clinton appeared for a short segment of SNL recently, each of the Democratic presidential candidates (except Jim Webb who dropped out of the race today) will be given  the same amount of time on the show.

That, folks, is how Demoracy works!
