Saturday Night Live (SNL) banned both President Donald Trump and Kamala from making an appearance.
But since this is the last SNL before Election Day, they thought they’d let Kamala sneak in.
That way President Trump wouldn’t get a chance.
Does this break any laws?
Does the FCC need to get involved in this?
That’s what many are saying.
EQUAL ACCESS: SNL refused to allow Trump to host citing the Communications Act’s equal access rule. In a stunning reversal NBC secretly allowed Kamala Harris to host tonight to prevent Trump from demanding equal time. The FCC must revoke NBC’s license.

Kamala is appearing on SNL tonight, even though as recently as one month ago, they explicitly said they’re not hosting either candidate.
They lied.
Just another example of the system working overtime to prop up a failing, astroturfed candidate that nobody voted for. pic.twitter.com/rFQB48alLq

The commissioner himself of the FCC weighed on this:
This is a clear and blatant effort to evade the FCC's Equal Time rule.
The purpose of the rule is to avoid exactly this type of biased and partisan conduct – a licensed broadcaster using the public airwaves to exert its influence for one candidate on the eve of an election.… https://t.co/LliZF0po9t

Doesn’t look good for Kamala.
Kamala is so unoriginal she even had to copy Trump’s SNL skit. pic.twitter.com/Tl2DhuSNGc

Fox News reports:
Kamala Harris made a cameo on the final episode of “Saturday Night Live” before Tuesday’s election alongside her impersonator on the show.
Harris appeared as the “mirror image” on Saturday night of herself, portrayed by Maya Rudolph, at the end of the cold open that poked fun at Donald Trump wearing a sanitation vest at a rally this week, as well as Joe Biden’s repeated gaffes.
Rudolph’s Harris wondered, “I wish I could talk to someone who’s been in my shoes. You know, a Black, south Asian woman running for president. Preferably from the Bay Area.”
ADVERTISEMENTHarris then was revealed to be sitting across the table from her, leading to huge cheers from the audience. Harris grinned and said, “You and me both, sister.”
Harris then took a shot at Trump, saying, “I’m just here to remind you, you got this. Because you can do something your opponent cannot do. You can open doors.”
Trump was seen struggling for a moment to open the door of the garbage truck he talked to reporters from this week. The garbage truck and vest were meant to draw attention to Biden’s suggestion this week that Trump’s supporters were “garbage.”
Rudolph poked fun at Harris’ distinctive laugh, leading Harris to ask, “I don’t really laugh like that, do I?”
“A little bit,” Rudolph responded.
What followed was a series of rhymes around Harris’ first name, as Rudolph said, “Kamala, take my palm-ala.”
“The American people want to stop the chaos,” Rudolph said, with Harris adding, “And end the drama-la.”
“With a cool new step mom-ala. Get back in our pajama-las. And watch a rom-com-ala,” Rudolph said, with the two later touting their “belief in the promise of America.”

Well bless their little hearts.
Kamala and her crew are still in good spirits when they’re dreams of winning are about to be dashed and crushed into oblivion.
Let them have their little laughs, it might be the last they have.
Because the last laugh belongs to us.
Kamala picked SNL over Joe Rogan… and you want me to believe she's "surging"
SNL most watched episode had 5.3 million views with an election year jump of 8 million.
Trumps episode with Joe Rogan had 43 million on Youtube alone.

Kamala Harris SNL skit DIRECTLY copied Trump’s from 2015.
Can she do ANYTHING original at all? https://t.co/RX3zMprYfo pic.twitter.com/wwbdVJgig1
