Just in case it wasn’t completely clear that the writers of Saturday Night Live leaned to the left, tonight’s cold open — featuring former cast member Will Ferrell portraying President George W. Bush — should clarify the issue.
I’ll update the post later when the full video of the sketch is posted but here are a few clips from Twitter.

You get the point: SNL knows its audience is all stressed out about Trump, but hey, let’s have some fun calling Bush stupid again.
And they also blame him for creating ISIS.
Yes, really.
After Ferrell’s Bush character mentions that “we are still in two different wars that I started,” he then poses the question, “What has two thumbs and created ISIS? This guy.”
Some things never change.
