This weekend, Saturday Night Live lampooned this week's final presidential debate; the one that included infamous mentions of puppets, bad hombres, and nasty women.

Guest-star Alec Baldwin played Donald Trump as a blustery fool, and out regular Kate McKinnon portrayed Hillary Clinton as a rigid, competent "Republican." Comparatively, Clinton came out smelling more like roses, which fits into Trump's narrative of a "rigged" media (he already expressed anger at Baldwin's previous depiction of him). As moderator Chris Wallace (played by host Tom Hanks) pointed out to Trump, the media is just reflecting back the words and deeds of a candidate very far out of his league.

Watch below, as well as a performance from musical guest Lady Gaga.
