Alec Baldwin's Donald Trump couldn't enjoy his big legislative win Friday with the passing of the Republican tax bill thanks to the news that Gen. Michael Flynn is cooperating with Special Council Robert Mueller in the cold open of the latest "Saturday Night Live."
Baldwin's Trump found himself visited by a ghostly Flynn, "the ghost of witness flipped," played by Mikey Day.
"You came to get me? I knew it!" Baldwin's Trump said. "It's the Muslim stuff, right?"
"No," Flynn answered. Trump then listed off a series of other scandals he suspected Flynn might be coming after him for.
"For calling Mexicans rapists? The Roy Moore stuff? Draft dodging? The birther stuff? Pocahontas? The Central Park Five? For making fun of the handicapped reporter like this?"
"No, I'm not here about any of that stuff," Flynn explained.
In a political riff on Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," Flynn called himself "the Ghost of Witness Flipped" and told Trump he'd be visited by three more ghosts who could bring down his presidency.
The first ghost was Billy Bush, played by Alex Moffat, to remind Trump about the "Access Hollywood" tape. Trump recently had reportedly suggested the tape was fake — it included audio of Trump talking about how he sexually assaulted women and got away with it because he was famous.
