A shirtless Vladimir Putin, played by Beck Bennett, stopped by the White House to address Russia's alleged involvement in the presidential election in the latest Saturday Night Live sketch. "All lies, made up by some very bitter people who need to move on!" Trump, played by Alec Baldwin, declares to the delight of Putin.

"We think you are the best candidate, the smartest candidate, the Manchurian Candidate," Putin says before gifting Trump with a suspicious Elf on the Shelf doll to put right next to his internet router. Watch the hilarious five-minute cold open above to see what happens when Trump's pick for secretary of state, Rex Tillerson, played by John Goodman, also shows up and has a mini-reunion with his friend, Putin.
