While promising to talk "only" about his "amazing" tax plan, Baldwin's Trump struggled to stay on message. And that wasn't even all of it. Watch the entire sketch in the video above.

Love Alec Baldwin's Donald Trump Impression? Here Is Some of It.

as mentioned in But Saturday Night Live audiences won't have any trouble telling the real president from the fake one, because Baldwin's version of Donald J. Trump is a real dum-dum! Whether he's failing to explain his tax plan, telling Mike Pence (who is not really Mike Pence, but actor Beck Bennett) to leave sporting events early, or trying out jokes that would have bombed in the Catskills fifty years ago, this President Trump just can't stop screwing everything up! Pretending Mike Pence doesn't like to hear the word "abort" in any context. Calling Mike Pence inside a prominently branded Starbucks that presumably got NBC some of that sweet, sweet coffee shop product placement revenue. Telling the old joke about marriage being between a man and a woman, then another woman, then another woman.
