SNL Video: Alec Baldwin’s Bret Baier Grills Kamala Harris for Fox News
Saturday Night Live brought back a familiar face to poke fun at Kamala Harris’ contentious sit-down with Fox News.
Alec Baldwin, who’s hosted SNL more than anyone else and played Donald Trump during the 2016 election season, returned to Studio 8H to play Fox News host Bret Baier, who grilled Harris in a TV interview this week — and admits he looks “like someone made a businessman in Minecraft.” Baier challenged Maya Rudolph’s Harris with tough questions right away: “Give me the exact number of murderers you let into this country.” Harris, though, boasted about the drug cartels she broke up as a prosecutor (“If I was in Breaking Bad, it would’ve ended in three episodes”) before taking time out to film viral TikToks in the middle of the interview.

Baier then threw to a clip of James Austin Johnson’s Donald Trump, rambling about Al Capone, Scarface and body-switch movies. (“They’re switching bodies and doing Freaky Fridays and Hannah Montanas.”) We were also treated to Trump dancing aimlessly to “YMCA,” while Harris mocked his infamous Coachella rally and its transportation snafus as “an Old Testament Fyre Festival.”
Baier pushed Harris to say something horrible about Trump voters (“They’re at least fat, right?”) before putting on the charm: “You’re very sexy when you’re angry, you know that?” But Harris wasn’t fazed: “Yes, I do.” Plus, Dana Carvey’s Joe Biden popped in to warn Floridians about the recent hurricanes — and complain about the disappointing Joker sequel. The interview wrapped up with Harris terrifying Baier with words like “abortion,” “uterus” and “menstruation.” Oh, and Trump had to sneak in that he considers January 6th “a day of love”… before dancing off to “It’s Raining Men.”
