Donald Trump's got some interesting moves...just like Drake!

The Republican presidential candidate hosted NBC's Saturday Night Live this weekend, amid protests held outside 30 Rockefeller Center.

During the show, he appeared in a parody of Drake's new music video, "Hotline Bling." The result: Spectacular, of course.

He began the show with a monologue that included two Trump impersonators, yet another joke about Rosie O'Donnell and some heckling from Larry David, who has been playing Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on SNL.

The musical guest was Sia, who performed with her signature face-hiding wig and sang "Birds Set Free" and "Alive."

"Amazing evening at Saturday Night Live!" Trump tweeted.

"Live-tweeting"

And speaking of tweeting, Trump, known for his scathing Twitter posts about his opponents, played a key role in another skit in which mean tweets attributed to him were shown while cast members performed. (No, he didn't actually tweet them, we checked.)

Examples:  "This sketch is not funny. @TaranKillam is a dumb loser" and "Kate McKinnon was born stupid."

"White House 2018"

Trump is president, so imagine what the world is like now...Cecily Strong plays his wife, Melania Trump, who steals the show and notes that the White House is the smallest place they've ever lived in. Plus, daughter Ivanka Trump makes a cameo.

After the show, Trump tweeted several compliments posted by fans.

".@nbcsnl - So much fun last night!" he wrote.
