Donald Trump rips Alec Baldwin’s impression of him on Saturday Night Live by tweeting to his followers

He is famous for his impersonation of Donald Trump — much to the President-elect’s disdain.

Now Alec Baldwin has pledged to stop mocking Trump on Saturday Night Live ... only if Trump releases his tax returns.

It came after Trump responded to Saturday Night Live’s dig at his Twitter use by tweeting his unhappiness with Baldwin’s impression of him, deeming the spoof “unwatchable”.

The President-elect had attacked SNL before regarding Baldwin’s impersonation of him but it seems like it is still getting under his skin.

In this week’s Trump skit, his adviser Kellyanne Conway is seen getting frustrated as her boss refuses to listen to a security briefing, instead looking at his Twitter account.

“Kellyanne, I just retweeted the best tweet. Wow what a great, smart tweet,” Mr Trump said as the show reminded it’s audience that the real President-elect had retweeted a 16-year-old boy earlier in the week.

“Just tried watching Saturday Night Live — unwatchable! Totally biased, not funny and the Baldwin impersonation just can’t get any worse. Sad,” Mr Trump wrote.

Baldwin refused to let Mr Trump have the last word, tweeting back “@realDonaldTrump, release your tax returns and I’ll stop. Ha.”

Last week, Mr Trump also tweeted that he was displeased with the show.

However, last week, he waited until the following morning to share his views.

“Watched parts of @nbcsnl Saturday Night Live last night. It is a totally one-sided, biased show — nothing funny at all. Equal time for us?” Mr Trump wrote.

Baldwin told him to focus on something important rather than his displeasure at Saturday Night Live.

“Equal time? Election is over. There is no more equal time. Now u try 2 b Pres + ppl respond. That’s pretty much it,” Baldwin’s first tweet read. “You know what I would do if I were Prez? I’d be focused on how to improve the lives of AS MANY AMERICANS AS POSSIBLE.”
