A number of people have played Trump in recent months.

But I don’t think any of them have nailed it as much as this:

Alec Baldwin and Kate McKinnon played each of the Presidential candidates, and each respectively played the roles perfectly.

The swagger, the lip pursing, the voice, the hand gestures. It was wonderful.

They picked up on the most relevant points in last week’s debate. From Trump sniffing, to the constant mumbling in the microphone. I’m not a fan of Baldwin at the best of times, but his delivery was to the letter and more.

It was almost scary how well he played him.

Kate McKinnon played a very convincing Hillary too. The awkward segues into what she wanted to say, and her small shoulder wiggle. The one that spawned all the Shaquille O’Neal comparisons.
