Turns Out There’s a Lot More to Alec Baldwin’s Trump Impression Than Gluing Shrimp to His Fingers

Alec Baldwin is making $1400 per Trump appearance on SNL, and I would say it’s pretty well-deserved because that s**t is hilarious. But what makes his take on Trump so excellent? Is it the way he uses his voice? The weird pauses? The petulant facial expressions? The bronzer that looks it was freshly shoplifted from a CVS by a middle school girl?

Alec Baldwin told us the secret to his bigly successful impression in a recent interview with NYT.

“I see a guy who seems to pause and dig for the more precise and better language he wants to use, and never finds it.”

That’s the realest s**t I have ever seen in my life.

“It’s the same dish — it’s a grilled-cheese sandwich rhetorically over and over again.”

Thanks for such an unpresidented impression, Baldwin. With WWIII on the horizon we really need you in a dumb wig making us laugh about something.
