If there's one thing that has been on everyone's mind this year, it's definitely the US Presidential Elections! There were many moments that made us wonder if we were on The Truman Show and the circumstances leading to the current presidential elect, were indeed surreal. Saturday Night Live’s (SNL) ratings have been soaring from their presidential election parodies this year.
