Trump Blasts SNL On Twitter After Comedy Mocks His Uncontrollable Tweeting
"Just tried watching Saturday Night Live - unwatchable!," wrote the 70-year-old. "Totally biased, not funny and the Baldwin impersonation just can't get any worse. Sad." Trump posted just 15 minutes after the show, that ironically mocked his incessant tweeting, ended. In the episode, Baldwin's Trump and Kate McKinnon as adviser Kellyanne Conway are seated at a desk in Trump Tower as two men are trying to brief him on Syria. Trump, however, keeps getting distracted by his phone and retweets random supporters. "I just retweeted the best tweet," he tells McKinnon. "I mean, wow, what a great, smart tweet. This could not wait. It was from a young man named Seth. He's 16. He's in high school. And I really did retweet him. Seriously. This is real." "God, Seth seems so cool," he says. "His twitter bio says he wants to make America great again." McKinnon, as Trump's campaign manager, attempts to cover up for the distracted president elect: "There is a reason Donald tweets so much. He does it to distract the media from his business conflicts and all the scary people in his cabinet." "That's not true," Baldwin's Trump says. "My brain is bad." Meanwhile, in response to Trump's message that Baldwin's impression couldn't get any worse, the actor himself replied: "Release your tax returns and I'll stop. Ha."
President elect Donald Trump took to Twitter to rail against 'Saturday Night Live' and Alec Baldwin's impersonation of him on Sunday.
