Trump Sits At The NATO "Loser's Table"
SNL's cold open last night relegated international embarrassment Donald "Impeachable Me" Trump to the "loser's table" in an imagined high school cafeteria take on the recent NATO meeting, where Trump was mocked by leaders of other countries. James Corden migrated over from CBS to portray British PM Boris Johnson for the skit. (We have to take issue with some of the portrayals, notably putting the Latvian leader at the "loser's table" with Trump -- that's an unfortunate way to depict a country that's on the front lines of NATO, facing Russian sabotage every day. A better choice would have been Turkey's autocratic PM Erdogan, who mirrors Trump's tendencies. Also, Chancellor Merkel has more "cool" and cojones than anyone else in that group.)
