This week’s Saturday Night Live featuring Kristin Wiig as host featured another appearance from Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump. In this post-election win cold opening, Trump is completely baffled by and overwhelmed by the job of president of the United States. Also, he takes back every single campaign promise he ever made. Kate McKinnon is a harried and guilt ridden Kellyanne Conway. Jason Sudeikis makes a cameo as Mitt Romney.
Just to be fair, here’s a skit that mocks Liberals who live in the so-called “bubble.” For frightened progressives, a domed community provides a 100% alternate reality to Trump’s America.
And once again, nearly the entire Weekend Update is devoted to the presidential election and its aftermath.
Part 1 – Donald Trump hires Steve Bannon and wants to split time between the White House and Trump Tower.
Part 2 – President Obama criticizes the spread of fake news, Dwayne Johnson is named Sexiest Man Alive. Pete Davidson and Willie (Kenan Thompson) stop by.
Donald Trump tweeted a reaction to SNL early Sunday morning:
I watched parts of @nbcsnl Saturday Night Live last night. It is a totally one-sided, biased show – nothing funny at all. Equal time for us?

And…Alec Baldwin responded with a flurry of tweets:

You know what I would do if I were Prez? I'd be focused on how to improve the lives of AS MANY AMERICANS AS POSSIBLE.— ABFoundation (@ABFalecbaldwin) November 20, 2016

I'd be focused on improving our reputation abroad, including actually fighting for freedom and not just oil.— ABFoundation (@ABFalecbaldwin) November 20, 2016
