Alec Baldwin, best known for his role impersonating President Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live, said that people could “not be mean enough” to Trump because he’s wasting the “tremendous opportunity” of serving as president.
“We can’t be mean enough to this guy,” Baldwin told an audience at George Washington University, his alma mater, claiming that President Trump was squandering the “tremendous opportunity” he had been given to serve as president.
“I thought he would take a deep breath and say, ‘I’m the president now,’ and begin to focus on, not only the power and the prestige and all of those kinds of tactile but more common perks and benefits of being president,” Baldwin said.
The talk was also meant to promote Baldwin’s new book, You Can’t Spell America Without Me, a satirical memoir of Trump’s time in office.
Baldwin also claimed he would make a good president himself, and mentioned a possible run for office.
“Would I think I’d be a good president? Yeah, I think I’d be a good president,” he said. “To run for office is something that I want to do,” he said, adding that it “doesn’t seem to be practical with my lifestyle and my children.”
The SNL star shared a similar viewpoint earlier this year, arguing that Trump will win in 2020 unless another more compelling candidate were to run against him. Baldwin went so far as to suggest that he would consider running for office.
“I would love to run for office because I think people need something different,” Baldwin said in an April interview with Extra, adding, “I think that all the people that are on deck in 2020, none of them are going to win.”

They’re never going to grow up
Remind me why I’m supposed to be nice to people like Alec Baldwin?
What does “mean” mean?
Is this coded language for specific action?
wE’RE WASTING OUR time trying to reason with these people. The eGOP is squandering the opportunity not Trump. Trump’s message and focus is clear.
Because as we all know, being President is all about the perks and bennies you get as the POTUS, not on silly things like being an executive, or championing the nation you represent. The Left wants another Obama, full of himself and focused only on living a Versailles Presidency.
Lawless. In their hearts, without moral foundations.
politics IS religion with these folks.
Maybe this whole purge of pedophiles, women abusers and serial rapists in Hollywood is meant to weed out those who cannot run against Trump in 2020.
Sorry Alec, you beat your kid. You cannot run.
from the guy who called his own daughter a pig
Please run, Alec!! I’d love to see a fat turd woman abuser like you run for POTUS. Of course, you’d need to triple down on the Seraquil, Xanax, Zoloft, Atavan and intense anger management therapy.
I think you might have a shot, Alec! Hey, pick George Clooney as your running mate, what an awesome pair the two of you would make.
LMAO
How is he sqandering the presidency and what would he like him to do? We never get specifics from these people.
The thought of Balwin as president makes me somewhat sympathetic....eh the heck with em.
When does the shooting start?
“I’d love to see a fat turd woman abuser like you run for POTUS.”
Actually, he’s a CHILD abuser from way back — his daughter.
He’s an actor Jim.....
Really is sad that so many public figures don’t understand how important it is to uphold the Office of the President of the USA. Anyone can trash the President, but we all unite when we help the office lead.

It’s the immature mentality of all Liberals and it translates to: ‘I’m going to break the rules and you have to let me.’
