Watch: Donald Trump vs. Hillary Clinton Town Hall Debate Cold Open - SNL


Saturday Night Live is milking the latest election as long as it lasts, so it should come as no surprise that the long-running sketch comedy show is parodying the most recent debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.


Kate McKinnon reprises the Clinton role while Trump is played by Alec Baldwin. Though technically not a cast member, Alec Baldwin has signed on to play Donald Trump this year. Leslie Jones played town hall member Patrice Brock, asking the first question, "Do you feel that you are modeling an appropriate and positive behavior for today's youth?"

"Hi Patrice," said Mckinnon (Clinton), "Let me start by walking over to you just like I practiced. Right. Left. Right. Left. Right. Left. Look. Speak," in a nod to Clinton's obviously scripted behavior and the wikileaks emails that shed light on Clinton's many scandals including how Clinton was notified of at least one question by CNN before a March town hall debate.

"I strive to be a positive role model for all children," said Mckinnon (Clinton), "like my daughter Chelsea, and my granddaughter Chelsea Jr."

The next few minutes couldn't replicate the actual debate's energy and the sketch took a somewhat dark turn when Hillary acknowledged the four woman Bill Clinton allegedly raped, by referring to them only as mistresses. However, it got a little lighter with the introduction of Ken Bone, as played by Bobby Moynihan.
