Donald Trump began Saturday morning by making thinly-veiled racist jabs at Puerto Rico and its capital's mayor, and Saturday Night Live finished the day with a hilariously incisive Alec Baldwin sketch taking down the president's non-response to the island's devastation.

But SNL didn't leave it at that - some of the most pointed Trump criticism of the night came courtesy of Weekend Update co-anchor Michael Che, who straight up called the president a "bitch" and a "cheap cracker," lambasting his Tweets and insufficient aide efforts. "This isn’t that complicated, man," Che said. "It’s hurricane relief. These people need help. You just did this for white people, twice. Do the same thing."

Che also touched upon the national anthem protests, saying that black people "love the flag."

"It's not personal," Che continued, "You've just got to understand: There's fifty stars on the American flag, but black people, we only feel welcome in like, eight."

Jay-Z, the night's musical guest, also continued to support Colin Kaepernick's protest by performing wearing a football jersey bearing Kaepernick's "7" on its front and "COLIN K" on its back.
