‘SNL’ Mocks Trump’s Town Hall Answers About Testing for COVID-19

“Saturday Night Live” (📺SNL) is tackling President Donald Trump’s performance during his NBC News town hall held on Thursday.

Actor Alec Baldwin, notorious for his portrayal of the president, mocked his answers after being asked about how often he is tested for COVID-19 and whether he was tested on the day of the first presidential debate.

Kate McKinnon, playing NCB’s Savannah Guthrie, asked Baldwin as Trump when was the last time he tested negative for COVID-19.

“There are so many tests Santana. I get tested all the time,” Baldwin said.

He added, “There are so many COVIDs Savannah, COVID-12, COVID-14.”

When asked if he was tested on the day of the debate Baldwin responded, “There have been so many debates Savannah.”

Watch the exchange below:

McKinnon as Guthrie grew frustrated and told Baldwin there has only been one debate.

She asked if he still had symptoms.

“No, not at all. I’m doing great. My doctors say my lung is beautiful. I have one beautiful lung now. It’s turned basically into glass so it’s very strong,” Baldwin said.

He added, “I had a small fever. It was around 100. Celsius. But I did great. I never died, never saw hell or the devil. He never showed me a list of my sins. I was just alive and strong the whole time.”

McKinnon turned her attention to a question asked by a once undecided voter Paulette Dale played by Chloe Fineman.

“Greetings Mr. President. I have to say you have a great smile. He does. You’re so handsome when you smile. Come on, let me see those chompers,” Fineman said.

Baldwin smiled and Fineman responded, “There we go. You’re so beautiful.”

Despite Dale’s compliments at the town hall, she told the Miami New Times she is leaning toward voting for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, as IJR previously reported.
