In watching SNL on April 19, which was a rerun of the Jan. 18 show with Dave Chappelle hosting, in his opening monologue Chappelle said: “So Donald Trump, I know you watch the show. Man, remember whether people voted for you or not, they’re all counting on you. Good luck. Please do better next time.
“Please all of us, do better next time. I don’t know that Trump is capable of shame, but surely this is a better response to him than denial or cheap, ineffectual scorn. Do not forget your humanity, and please have empathy for displaced people whether they’re in the Palisades or Palestine.”
It’s obvious that this time is going to be no better than the last!
