Earlier this week in Manhattan, Melissa McCarthy – who’s the host of tonight’s SNL – was seen, and photographed, propelling herself through city streets, right around Trump Tower, on a “mobile podium” dressed as White House press spokesperson Sean Spicer. And after the week of events we’ve all dealt with, this week’s show had better be up to the occasion. McCarthy will be, that’s a given. But the writing, tonight, needs to be especially sharp. Our country desperately needs it, and deserves it.
