As if Donald Trump doesn’t have enough going on these days, a resurfaced video of the infamous SNL comedian, Pete Davidson, talking about one of his past experiences with the new-ex-president, when Trump served as a guest host on Saturday Night Live, is going viral across social media and it’s not a good look for the big guy.

Speaking on an episode of Complex’s Open Late podcast, one of the hosts opened the conversation with the exclamation, “Donald Trump!”

“I have one story I’m allowed to tell,” Davidson says with a grin already spreading across his face, “and it’s hilarious.”

“Okay. So he’s like… He doesn’t really know how to read,” Davidson begins as the podcasts hosts question, “For real?”

The notorious comedian and Kim K ex goes on to note that Donald “loves to improv.”

Davidson goes on to recall being at the table read with the New York real estate “mogul” and former reality TV “star,” where Trump would attempt to “read” each line before saying, according to Davidson, “Uhhh. I’m not gonna say this. I think I’m gonna say it the way I wanna say it. Is that okay?”

He goes on to describe a sketch where Donald Trump was supposed to be at Disneyland with his daughter, and the line was supposed to be, “Alright! Let’s get outta here! Turkey Legs?!”

But, apparently, Trump didn’t read the line correctly and ended up actually calling his daughter “Turkey Legs.”

Davidson went on to add as the whole podcast panel howled with laughter, “He doesn’t get it! He thinks everybody’s laughing with him, but we’re all laughing at him. He would be like, ‘I did a good job, right?'”

The hilarious clip resurfaced and went viral as part of the viral new “Laugh At Trump” hashtag that’s spreading like wildfire after the scandal-plagued and felony-convicted former president backed down from the upcoming debate against Kamala Harris.
