‘SNL’ skit not funny, lacked truth

On Saturday, Aug. 27, my husband and I stayed up to watch the opening skit on “Saturday Night Live.”

The skit portrayed supporters of Donald Trump as rural members of the Ku Klux Klan, Nazis and white supremacists. Skits that are clever and contain an element of truth make me laugh. There is no truth that a wide swath of American citizens are Klan members, Nazis and white supremacists. There was no laughter. The only sound in our family room was the quiet click when I turned off the TV.
