'SNL': Will Ferrell's Sondland tells Alec Baldwin's Trump: 'Keep the quid pro quo on the low-low'

Alec Baldwin once again donned his wig as President Donald Trump on "Saturday Night Live," this time to answer impeachment questions.

In the opening skit, Baldwin's Trump told group of reporters at a news conference on the White House lawn: "Look, I know you probably have a lot of questions for me about this impeachment nonsense."

He acted distracted by the loud helicopter behind him. "Everything is perfect, OK?" he said. "Thanks for all your questions."

The reporters, including cast members Mikey Day and Cecily Strong, pushed for information on the president's relationship with European Union Ambassador Gordon Sondland. Baldwin's Trump responded that he doesn't even know that guy; it's "fake news."

Then he presented notes he took on phone calls with the "biggest, fattest, blackest magic marker," which he said he liked better than Sharpies because of the licorice scent.

Those notes included an order for two large pies with extra cheese and extra sausage. Not quite the set of notes he was looking for originally, Baldwin's Trump concluded.

There was "no quid pro quo," he responded to reporters asking about other conversations.

Then Sondland, portrayed by host and former cast member Will Ferrell, sporting a bald cap, appeared behind Trump.

"Keep the quid pro quo on the low-low. I got it," he said.

Ferrell's Sondland then threw Baldwin's Trump under the bus: He told reporters they had better back off his guy, because everyone loves him – including Ukraine and Russia.

"They’ll do anything for this man. I know – I asked," Ferrell said as Sondland.
