Funniest bit I've seen in a long time is in season 2 of the Patriot where Leslie goes to an AA meeting and proceeds to surreptitiously do cocaine during his drug addiction counseling session. Laugh out loud funny. For those who don't know the show, it's Kurtwood Smith - the guy who played Red on That 70's show - dude is great.
 
For me it's gotten way too political. The two guys that do the weekend news are the head writers and it's content is usually 50% political.
 
bad business decision to constantly rail on a president - it's like owning a sports store in Gainesville but only carrying FSU gear
 
SNL has been making fun of Presidents since Gerry Ford. Not their fault the current one is so ripe for satire.

This.

Some of the best skits were Presidents. Dana Carvey as George HW Bush was classic, as was Phil Hartman as Bill Clinton. Will Farrell was perfect as George W. Yes, there's more spite towards current president but he stokes the fire by tweeting about the show, only motivates them to do more. And he's been on it himself during the election!

Folks need to grow thicker skin if satire bothers them.

I was about to post something similar. Both Phil Hartman and Darrell Hammond didn't hold back on Clinton. It was funny and well-deserved. The Hillary skits perfectly mocked her disingenuousness. Trump is just such a cartoon character of a person, regardless of whether you like him or not. It's impossible to not make fun of him.
