Trump Takes to Twitter to Criticize SNL's Portrayal of His Twitter Use
----------------------------------------------------------------------

In other news, President-elect Donald Trump took to Twitter early on
Sunday to slam the latest episode of "Saturday Night Live." He wrote,
"Just tried watching Saturday Night Live–unwatchable! Totally
biased, not funny and the [Alec] Baldwin impersonation just can't get
any worse. Sad." Trump wrote the message shortly after Baldwin poked fun
of Trump's use of Twitter on the show.

Alec Baldwin (Impersonating Trump): "Kellyanne, I just retweeted the
best tweet. I mean, wow, what a great, smart tweet."

Security Adviser: "Mr Trump, we're in a security briefing."

Baldwin: "I know, but this could not wait. It was from a young man named
Seth. He's 16. He's in high school. And I really did retweet him.
Seriously, this is real."

On Sunday, Alec Baldwin responded to Trump on Twitter. Baldwin wrote:
"@real Donald Trump. Release your tax returns and I'll stop. Ha."
