"Saturday Night Live."

The latest episode of "Saturday Night Live" opened with Alec Baldwin continuing to impersonate President-elect Trump in a sketch mocking Trump's use of Twitter.

At one point "SNL" cast member Kate McKinnon, impersonating Trump's adviser Kellyanne Conway, defends Trump's tweeting habits, saying, "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."

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

Though the sketch got a lot of laughs, someone who wasn't laughing was Trump himself, who tweeted on Saturday night that Bladwin's impersonation of him "can't get any worse."

Baldwin then responded to Trump's tweet, telling him, "Release your tax returns and I'll stop."

Trump has said publicly in the past that he will release his tax returns when the IRS is through with its audit of him.
