New York (CNN Business) "Saturday Night Live" kicked off its first episode of 2019 by having Alec Baldwin's President Trump play "Deal or No Deal: Government Shutdown Edition."

"The government's been shut down for, like, a month and I spent two hours at TSA in Atlanta. They thought I was smuggling extra teeth in my mouth," explained Kenan Thompson's Steve Harvey, who was filling in for the show's normal host, Howie Mandel.

Thompson's Harvey then brought out Baldwin's Donald Trump to play.

"Earlier today you went on TV and you told the American people that you wanted to make a deal," Thompson's Harvey told Baldwin's Trump. "So we decided to do this in the only format you could understand: a TV game show with women holding briefcases."

Baldwin's Trump explained that he wants $5 billion for his border wall. He then met the members of Congress who were holding "Deal or No Deal" briefcases of counteroffers. The fake Trump kicked off the game by choosing "Fancy Nancy Peloser," a nickname for Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, who was played by Kate McKinnon.
