Donald Trump calls SNL impersonation 'boring and unfunny'

BEVERLY HILLS, CA - JANUARY 15: Donald Trump, wife Melania Trump, and Actor Alec Baldwin (R) arrive at the NBC/Universal Golden Globe After Party held at the Beverly Hilton on January 15, 2007 in Beverly Hills, California.

Donald Trump is not happy with "Saturday Night Live."

Trump and Hillary Clinton have been the focus of recent skits on the weekend comedy show, which parodied the two candidates' performances at the presidential debates.

With Kate McKinnon acting as Clinton and Alec Baldwin playing Trump, the two have exaggerated moments at the debates and poked fun at both candidates. 

But Trump isn't laughing. 

The Republican presidential candidate tweeted Sunday morning saying, "Watched Saturday Night Live hit job on me.Time to retire the boring and unfunny show. Alec Baldwin portrayal stinks. Media rigging election."

SNL's Saturday skit, which spoofed the second presidential debate, showed an audience member posing a question to Trump and Clinton: "Do you feel that you're modeling appropriate and positive behavior for today's youth?"

Baldwin answered "No, next," before an Anderson Cooper character asked, "So you don't care about the kids?"

"I love the kids, OK? I love them so much I marry them," Baldwin said.

Trump recently came under fire for allegedly walking into dressing rooms of former teen beauty pageant contestants and for making comments about Paris Hilton when she was only 12 years old.

Another scene in the skit shows an undecided black voter named James asking Baldwin-as-Trump if he believes he can be a "devoted president to all the people." Baldwin responds by calling the man "Denzel" and talking about violence in inner cities.

He also said his Democratic opponent "has committed so many crimes, she's basically a black."

AOL said that there has been "a shift in how Trump has been portrayed" on the show, saying that "Television critics have noted that the depiction of the real-estate magnate has taken a darker turn since Baldwin stepped into the role at the beginning of the season."
