Alec Baldwin was back at it again Saturday evening, portraying President Trump during the cold open on Saturday Night Live.
In this week's episode, Baldwin's Trump was holding a rally in "Albacore," — er, Albuquerque — New Mexico where he was joined on stage by a series of overly enthusiastic local supporters. Eventually, some more recognizable faces appeared next to Trump, including Kate McKinnon's Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Alex Moffat's Mark Zuckerburg, while Pete Davidson played a very happy member of the Islamic State who couldn't wait to thank Baldwin's Trump for freeing him from prison in Syria.
