Pete Davidson was no fan of Kanye West's unhinged rant during last week's episode of Saturday Night Live, and he expressed his opinion during this week's episode.

The comedian used his spot on the "Weekend Update" segment of Saturday's episode to rip into Kanye, who was last week's musical guest. He first talked about working with Kanye West for an entire week, and how the Chicago rapper wore the Make America Great Again hat during all of the rehearsals. Davidson also refuted Kanye's claim that he was bullied by the 'SNL' crew not to wear the hat.

"He wore [the MAGA hat] all week. No one told him not to wear it. I wish I bullied you. It might upset someone, like your wife, or every black person ever," Davidson said in the segment.

Davidson has always been candid about his own struggles with mental illness. “Being mentally ill is not an excuse to act like a jackass,” Davidson continued. “I’m quoting my therapist, my mom, and my mailman.” He also broke out a MAGA-lookalike hat which read, "Make Kanye 2006 Again."

We won't immediately know how Kanye feels about the 'SNL' skit, as the rapper has recently deleted his Twitter and Instagram accounts.
