Trump blasts 'Saturday Night Live,' Alec Baldwin on Twitter – again
Donald Trump is at it again.
During this week's episode of "Saturday Night Live," the president-elect took to Twitter to sound off on the show – which skewered him in its opening sketch – and actor Alec Baldwin.

"Just tried watching Saturday Night Live – unwatchable!" Trump tweeted shortly after midnight Sunday. "Totally biased, not funny and the Baldwin impersonation just can't get any worse. Sad."
Baldwin, who plays Trump, quickly fired back.
"Release your tax returns and I'll stop," Baldwin wrote. "Ha."
Baldwin again teamed up with Kate McKinnon in Saturday's sketch, in which a preoccupied Trump ignores his security briefing to retweet his followers.
"I just retweeted the best tweet," Baldwin's Trump says. "I mean, wow, what a great, smart tweet."
After the security team objects, Baldwin's Trump continues, "This could not wait. It was from a young man named Seth. He's 16, he's in high school, and I really did retweet him. Seriously, this is real."
"He really did do this," adds McKinnon, playing Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway.
After taking shots at other Trump retweets, his rumored remarks about unflattering photos and his recent dinner with Mitt Romney, "SNL" took aim at chief strategist Steve Bannon with a sight gag. Check it out here.
