SNL: Darrell Hammonds Bill Clinton and Alec Baldwins Trump Bond Over Impeachment

After confessing to Jimmy Fallon earlier this week that Lorne Michaels had to perform his Jedi Mind Trick thing to get him back in Studio 8H to revive his tired and shoddy Donald Trump impression, Alec Baldwin was back again on Saturday Night Live.

This week opened with a spoof of Trumps rally in Albuquerque, New Mexicoby far my favorite Mexicowhich over the weekend joined a growing list of cities to send the presidents campaign a bill for unpaid costs incurred during his visit, which took place last month.

After mocking Trumps statement last week in which he bragged about building a wall in Colorado to protect the state from immigrantseven though Colorado doesnt share a border with Mexicohe led supporters in a chant. There was no collusion! they cheered, before being corrected by Baldwins Trump: Not that one, the new one. No quid pro quo! they obliged.

A rotating cast of supporters then joined him at the podium. First a woman played by Cecily Strong wearing a T-shirt reading Keem Amarica Greab Agrain, which she tells him was taken verbatim from one of your tweets, and then a conspiracy theorist played by Aidy Bryant showed up, shouting, The earth is coming for us! Beyonc is white!

Pete Davidson showed up as what seemed to be a young Trump supporter, later revealed to be a freed member of ISIS. I want to thank you for bringing jobs back… to ISIS, he says to Trump. I promise to make ISIS great again.

Kate McKinnons Lindsey Graham was there, as was Alex Moffats Mark Zuckerberg. He got his ass owned by AOC, which means hes one of us now, Baldwins Trump says, telling Zuck, I want to thank Facebook for running our Russian campaign for us.

The highlight for the studio audience, gauging by the applause of the crowd, was Darrell Hammonds return as Bill Clinton, itself a needed master class in how to keep a presidential impression fresh after many years, given who he was standing next to.

When Baldwins Trump tells Hammonds Clinton that hes getting impeached, Clintons eyes deviously narrow. You dirty dog he teases, before Trump interrupts: Its not for that. They dont mind when I do that. Trust me.

The final guest was Fred Armisen surprising as Turkeys President Erdogan, who reassured Trump that were treating the Kurds really well. When Trump informs him that some generalsor vagernals, as I call them, are mad that we pulled out of SyriaErdogan quips, Usually people are mad when you dont pull out!

With that, live from New York, it was Saturday Night.

(Meanwhile, earlier this week on RuPauls Drag Race UK, of all series, possibly one of the best Trump impressions on any comedy show yet aired. It was as part of the Snatch Game episode, in which the shows drag queen contestants do celebrity impressions in a spoof of the classic game show, Match Game, performed by British drag performer The Vivienne. Theres only a brief clip of it online, but trust that it was brilliantand certainly superior to this.)
