SNL Releases Promo Video with Donald Trump for This Week’s Show

11.05.2015 | News | Daily Surge |

NBC’s Saturday Night Live released promo videos Wednesday touting GOP front runner Donald Trump’s upcoming hosting appearance Saturday on the long-running sketch comedy show.

“To make things extra fun, Donald has promised he’s not going to brag or say he’s the best at anything. Right, Donald?” Cecily Strong, who headlined last year’s White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, asks Trump.

“That’s right, Cecily. And I’m going to do the best job anyone’s ever done not saying it,” Trump replies emphatically.

“What can I say? I’m the absolute best. What can I say?” real estate mogul adds.

Trump took shots at fellow Republican candidate Ben Carson, who recently surged ahead of Trump in a national poll.

“Because of equal time rules for television, Mr. Trump can only speak for four seconds in this promo,” Strong says in one of the promos.

“So let me just say this,” says Trump. “Ben Carson is a complete and total loser.”

The original promo was removed from SNL’s YouTube site shortly before and later replaced later with an “updated” version from which the Carson sketch was cut.
