Alec Baldwin and Kate McKinnon made a return to the Saturday Night Live stage this week with their spot-on impersonations of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. They joined Cecily Strong (playing ABC News reporter Martha Raddatz) and Alex Moffat (as CNN anchor Anderson Cooper) to reenact the second presidential debate.
"Welcome to the second and worst presidential debate," Strong says as Raddatz, who swiftly takes a shot.
The skit pulled many of the questions and candidate responses line for line from the actual debate. The sketch saw Baldwin fielding questions about Trump's notorious Access Hollywood comments about sexual assault, addressing whether or not Trump was a positive role model for children, and responding to a black voter's question about moral fiber by talking about the inner cities. He also made sure to comment on how McKinnon's Clinton should be in jail, but not before stalking McKinnon around the stage like a shark in one of the sketch's funnier moments.
Bobby Moynihan also makes an appearance as superstar-in-the-making, red sweater-wearing, undecided voter Ken Bone.
"You're not going to turn out to be a weird little creep or anything, are you?" Strong asks Moynihan.
"Maybe," Moynihan says as the camera slowly pans into his grin.
Just like the final question at the real town hall debate, SNL's skit closed on the question of one decided voter who wanted to know what each candidate likes about the other.
McKinnon, referring to the audio released last week that featured Trump bragging about sexually assaulting women, responds with a resounding mic drop: "Well, this one’s actually easy. Donald Trump and I disagree on almost everything, but I do like how generous he is. Just last Friday, he handed me this election.”
The Donald didn't appreciate the skit as much, firing off this tweet Sunday morning:
