Alec Baldwin returns to

Alec Baldwin has returned to “Saturday Night Live“But the actor, who won an Emmy for playing former President Donald Trump, didn’t step into that role — he returned to play Saturday night Fox News' Bret Baier in an opening sketch that manipulated this week's interview with Kamala Harris.
Baldwin received loud cheers from the audience before revealing he was playing Baier, who he joked: “Yeah, I look like someone made a businessman in Minecraft.”
Rudolph's Harris laughed nervously after shaking Baldwin's Baier's hand and said, “The pleasure is not ours.”
The skit poked fun at Baier's real-life interruptions of Harris, with Baldwin repeatedly interrupting Rudolph in rapid-fire fashion.
Rudolph, after several interruptions to the first question: “May I please finish?”
Baldwin: “I’m asking you to.”
Rudolph: “Well, then you have to listen.”
Baldwin: “Well, I can’t because I’m talking.”
Rudolph: “Well, when are you going to stop?”
“Maybe when I go to bed,” Baldwin replied as the audience laughed loudly.
The skit also mocked a moment that Baier acknowledged was a mistake by playing the wrong clip of a Trump response.
The clips allowed “SNL” to bring in mini-sketts, including one starring Dana Carvey as President Joe Biden, who has played the role since the beginning of the comedy sketch show's 50th season.
The skit ended – many interruptions later – with Harris asking, “Before I go, can I just say what I've been meaning to say the whole time?” Live from New York, it’s Saturday night!”, and Baldwin joined her.

Baldwin hosted the record-breaking series “SNL” 17 times, but has not appeared there recently. His involuntary manslaughter trial for the fatal shooting of a cameraman on the set of the film “Rust” ended in a mistrial in July.
