Alec Baldwin To Play Donald Trump On SNL Premiere This Weekend

Saturday Night Live will rely on one of its most beloved guest hosts to fill the shoes of Republican presidential contender Donald Trump when the show returns for its 42nd season this weekend: Oscar-nominated actor Alec Baldwin. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Baldwin will debut his Trump impression on this Saturday’s season premiere (hosted by Margot Robbie) and will continue to play Trump throughout the year. Baldwin has hosted the show a record 16 times and is no stranger to impersonations.  Over the years on SNL he’s impersonated Al Pacino, Bono, Marlon Brando, Tony Bennett and Texas governor Rick Perry.  Yesterday, SNL dropped a season-premiere teaser that shows Baldwin’s Trump facing off against Kate McKinnon’s Hillary Clinton.
