The latest episode of Saturday Night Live was a star-studded event including Ben Stiller as Donald Trump’s incompetent lawyer Michael Cohen, Scarlett Johansson as Ivanka Trump, and Martin Short as doctor Harold Bornstein.

The real draw though was Stormy Daniels in the flesh—playing, of course, herself.

The adult actress, who claims she had an affair with Trump in 2006, appears at the end of the skit when Cohen calls her at Trump’s request. Alec Baldwin reprises his role as the president and asks Daniels what he can do to end the scandal “once and for all.”

Daniels gets the last word.

It’s amazing, watch it here:

 

PLEASE—BEFORE YOU CLICK AWAY!

“Lying.” “Disgusting.” “Scum.” “Slime.” “Corrupt.” “Enemy of the people.” Donald Trump has always made clear what he thinks of journalists. And it’s plain now that his administration intends to do everything it can to stop journalists from reporting things it doesn’t like—which is most things that are true.

We’ll say it loud and clear: At Mother Jones, no one gets to tell us what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please do your part and help us reach our $150,000 membership goal by May 31.
