SNL Host Schumer ‘Discouraged’ By Audience’s Lack of Enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton

Comedian Amy Schumer got a surprise during Saturday Night Live when the Manhattan audience didn’t display much enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton.

In her monologue on the October 10 program, she set up a series of jokes by relaying how “I just met Hillary – yeah, I was pretty psyched about that.” After a smattering of applause, she noted her disappointment with the audience: “A little discouraging, the amount of applause.”
