SNL did a recent parody on a political ad titled "Racists For Trump."

Watch, vote and discuss this issue and the ad.
Here is the YouTube link (it is only 1 minute and 15 seconds long) : https://youtu.be/Qg0pO9VG1J8

There is some truth.  The ad highly exaggerates it, but of course that is sort of how comedy works.

Yes, agreed.  And it is mostly really funny because of Trump's recent failures to disavow racist endorsements.

Poor old Donald.

Must be feelin' the Bern after that one.

Satire is completely necessary during this campaign. I think Donald has learnt his lesson about the KKK.

People wanted a reason to hate him. Now, it's starting to define his political campaign.

Wow.
About 85% percent say there is "some truth" behind this ad.
Very clear majority from Atlas members.

Completely ridiculous. Actual Trump supporters would never be so polite and reasonable, no matter what their beliefs.

From this image, it seems that people just don't learn.
A Confederate flag mixed-in with support for trump.
Now what could this possibly mean/represent ?

Very nice.

Of course, there should be a similar ad featuring Hillary and her email server, but there's no equal time requirement for satire, so far as I know.
