Trump. [ APPLAUSE ] Live [00:08] from New York, it's [00:13] Saturday night .>> Secretary Clinton .>> Whoo, okay. [00:17] [ LAUGH ] [00:19] [ LAUGH ] [00:21] [ SOUND ] [00:23] When [00:26] the [00:28] woman's speaking [00:34] up somebody's sniffing here. I call it Trumped up, [00:38] trickle down because that's exactly what it would be. I don't [00:42] know, I guess if I had to call it something off the top of the [00:44] old dome with no prep whatsoever. I don't know. I guess I'd [00:48] call it Trumped up trickle down economics.

They're [01:02] going to Mexico. They're going to China. I was against the [01:06] war in Iraq. I then spoke to Sean Hannity, which everybody [01:10] refuses to call Sean Hannity. I had numerous [01:12] conversations with Sean Hannity at Fox. And Sean [01:15] Hannity. I was against the war. Ask anyone in the world [01:19] named Sean Hannity. I told Sean Hannity.

Laborers like my own human [01:36] father who made, I guess drapes, or [01:40] printed, drapes or sold drapes or [ INAUDIBLE ] Some of it [01:44] said in entertainment, some of it said somebody whose [01:47] been very vicious to me, Rosie O'Donell. I said very tough [01:50] things to her and I think everybody would agree that she [01:53] deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her. Why are we [01:56] talking about this woman? We should be talking about the [01:59] important issues like Rosie O'Donell [ LAUGH ]. How she's [02:05] a fat loser. [ LAUGH ] And everyone agrees with me, and I [02:09] just wanted to bring that up in a presidential debate ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4521150/hillary-clinton-on-alec-baldwin-snl/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4521150/hillary-clinton-on-alec-baldwin-snl/"},"headline":"Here's What Hillary Clinton Had to Say About Alec Baldwin's Donald Trump Impression","datePublished":"2016-10-06T14:52:29.000Z","dateModified":"2026-10-07T06:49:37.790Z","description":"\"It was amazing.\"","url":"https://time.com/4521150/hillary-clinton-on-alec-baldwin-snl/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Hillary Clinton","Television","Saturday Night Live","U.S.","Alec Baldwin"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltee9868421b2743d1/6988a8ed0a4a228f409cb877/gettyimages-489127872.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Ashley Hoffman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/ashley-hoffman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltee9868421b2743d1/6988a8ed0a4a228f409cb877/gettyimages-489127872.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Democratic Candidates Attend New Hampshire Democratic Party Convention","caption":"Democratic Candidates Attend New Hampshire Democratic Party Convention","creditText":"Scott Eisen-Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4521150/hillary-clinton-on-alec-baldwin-snl/","name":"Here's What Hillary Clinton Had to Say About Alec Baldwin's Donald Trump Impression"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"SNL's Donald Trump vs. Hillary Clinton Debate Compared to the Real Thing","description":"Saturday Night Live has consistently leveraged presidential debates for influential satire, and during this week’s premiere, they tackled the first great debate of 2016 for laughs.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/6f4JIVbn/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2016-10-03T19:02:22.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/6f4JIVbn.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4521150/hillary-clinton-on-alec-baldwin-snl/","duration":"PT2M21S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4521150/hillary-clinton-on-alec-baldwin-snl/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
