Alec Baldwin returned to “Saturday Night Live” this weekend to roast President Trump
Donald John TrumpGuidelines drafted by CDC were rejected by Trump administration citing religious freedom, economic concerns: report Tara Reade represented by well-known lawyer, Trump campaign donor Barr says it was 'duty' to drop Flynn case: 'It upheld the rule of law' MORE, mocking the administration on a score of issues ranging from the impeachment inquiry launched by House Democrats to the president’s decision to pull U.S. troops from northern Syria.
Baldwin also hit Trump for misspeaking last week and saying that the U.S. is building border wall in Colorado.
"I came back for a surprise rally because I heard they’re building a wall on the border of Colorado to keep the New Mexicans out," Baldwin said at a mock campaign rally in Albuquerque, N.M., which he called his "favorite Mexico."
He later led the crowd in a chant, calling the impeachment inquiry a “witch hunt” as supporters yelled that there was no collusion or quid pro quo.
Baldwin later brought out several actors portraying Trump supporters. Comedian Cecily Strong played a woman wearing a shirt that said “Keem Amarica Greab Agrain,” which she joked was a direct quote from one of the president’s tweets.
“This man is under attack. It’s deep state lizard conspiracy, and everyone’s in on it. The CIA, the FBI, the MIC, the KEY, and the MOUSE,” Strong said.
Trump also brought up a supporter from “Bikers for Trump” as well as a woman who offered her gun if Trump wanted to shoot the author of an upcoming book titled “A Warning.” It was written by the anonymous author of a bombshell New York Times op-ed piece that ran last year on “resistance” efforts in the Trump administration.
The sketch also touched on Trump’s decision to pull troops from northern Syria earlier this month. Trump is now reportedly considering leaving a couple hundred troops in the region after bipartisan backlash to the announcement.
Comedian Pete Davidson played a freed ISIS militant from the region, thanking the president for “bringing jobs back to ISIS.”
