'Saturday Night Live' Takes Aim at Trump's Hot Mic Scandal

Donald Trump continues to provide "Saturday Night Live" with fodder.

Alec Baldwin reprised his role as Donald Trump last night, while "SNL" regular Kate McKinnon returned as Hillary Clinton.

The show began with a spoof of last week's vice presidential debate, which is then interrupted by a breaking news update that makes a nod to the leaked audio between Trump and former "Access Hollywood" host Billy Bush, during which he makes lewd comments about women.






"Looks like Donald Trump finally got what he wanted -- a working microphone," says "SNL" cast member Cecily Strong, who plays CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin.

"I wish I was that hurricane tearing through hot Miami p---y,” says Baldwin's Trump, unaware that the microphone is on. "I would just destroy it."

Trump doppelganger Baldwin then says, "I mean what normal, red-blooded American doesn’t want to impress Billy Bush. You have to admit it’s kind of funny the only Bush in this election that matters is Billy."

The sketch then turns to McKinnon's Clinton, who is dancing and popping champagne at her campaign headquarters, while the Kool and the Gang song "Celebration" plays.

"I'm sorry, Brooke, I didn't see you," says the fictional Clinton. "We were so busy preparing for the debate tomorrow."


Asked if Trump should drop out of the race, Clinton responds, "No! No! No! Give him a shot!"
