Alec Baldwin returned to SNL this weekend with his now-iconic Trump impression for the episode's cold open, which featured a recap of Trump's first week as President-elect of the United States. Playing off of news that Trump was unaware of basic requirements for the Presidency, such as the need to hire a full staff for the West Wing of the White House, the sketch was a revolving door of Kellyanne Conway (Kate McKinnon) bringing in various high-profile leaders to meet with the President-elect, who each reveal something that overwhelms Trump.
Baldwin wasted no time responding to the tweet, blasting Trump for focusing his time and energy on a television show rather than focusing on reuniting the country. Check out the Twitter rant below:

You know what I would do if I were Prez? I'd be focused on how to improve the lives of AS MANY AMERICANS AS POSSIBLE.

I'd be focused on improving our reputation abroad, including actually fighting for freedom and not just oil.
