"Hello, how's it going? Let's make this quick, because I've got a lot of trade wars to escalate," Saturday Night Live's President Trump (Alec Baldwin) began his joint press conference with the leaders of several Baltic states. After his prepared (and extremely unprepared) remarks are finished, Trump turns his attention to his own inner monologue, mainly concluding he is very bored and would rather be watching Roseanne, as she is "like a good Rosie O'Donnell."
After a brief nap while the president of Lithuania is speaking, SNL's Trump decides to get honest with assembled members of the press. Of his one-sided feud with Jeff Bezos, owner of Amazon and The Washington Post, Trump concedes his hatred because Bezos is "way more mature than me and he admits to being bald, so I feel threatened on two levels."
