WATCH: Alec Baldwin returned as Donald Trump on SNL last night and absolutely killed it

Alan Loughnane

The role he was born to play…

Following his absence last week, Alec Baldwin made a return to Saturday Night Live last night as he once again took up the role of Donald Trump.

This time, he was offering “inspiring words” to American troops on the eve of an attack from aliens.

When we say inspiring, we mean that Baldwin’s Trump erupted into a spiel of nonsensical jabbering which ultimately meant that the earth was doomed.

The aliens are laughing at us. They’re killing us and laughing at us,” Baldwin’s Trump said in the sketch. “Here’s what we’re going to do. We’re going to bring coal back. You won’t believe how much coal we’re going to have. You’ll say I never knew there could be so much coal.”

Have a look at the full sketch below…
