'SNL' skewers Trump's Twitter habit, and he immediately proves their point

Alec Baldwin was back on Saturday Night Live this week as President-elect Donald Trump in a skit poking fun at Trump's recent decision to retweet a number of unsubstantiated claims about voter fraud from his supporters -- including a 16-year-old from California.

And did Trump then tweet about the show? Of course he did.

The sketch showed Baldwin's Trump and Kate McKinnon's Kellyanne Conway during a security briefing, with Trump too preoccupied by Twitter to pay attention to his advisers.

"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," Baldwin's Trump told the camera.

"He really did do this," Conway confirmed, before telling the advisers, "There is a reason, actually, that Donald tweets so much: he does it to distract the media from his business conflicts and all the very scary people in his cabinet."

Trump interjected, "Actually, that's not why I do it -- I do it because my brain is bad."

Trying to emphasize that none of this is actually a joke, Kenan Thompson, playing one of Trump's advisors, then pleaded, "Mr. Trump, please stop retweeting all these random, real people. You're not getting any work done."

"That's not true, I was elected 25 days ago and already unemployment is at a nine-year low, millions and millions of people have healthcare, and Osama bin Laden is dead," Trump argued. "Next, I’m going to do what I promised my whole campaign -- I'm going to build that swamp."

World-weary Conway corrected, "Don't you mean drain the swamp and build the wall?"

"No, that's too many things," Trump reasoned. "Just smoosh them together."

SNL also took aim at Trump's recent dinner with Mitt Romney.

"We have to get moving because you have that dinner with Mitt Romney tonight," Conway reminded Trump.

"Ugh, do I have to?" Trump pouted. When Conway confirmed that he did, he asked, "Then can we at least have a picture of us together where he looks like a little bitch?"

After retweeting a couple of other random supporters -- and debating whether he should "have Ivanka send some shoes" to Iran to try and make the region more stable -- Trump insisted he couldn't get to work without his chief strategist, Steve Bannon. And this is how Saturday Night Live decided to portray him:

Trump was not a fan of the skit, tweeting the show was "unwatchable."

But then he was watching TV rather than attending to, you know, affairs of state, so let's call that a win for Baldwin.
