Alec Baldwin’s Surprising Confession About Playing President Trump on ‘SNL’

On Thursday, only “Extra” was with Alec Baldwin as he prepared to host “Saturday Night Live” for a record-breaking seventeenth time this weekend. “Extra” correspondent Hilaria Baldwin, Alec’s wife, went behind the scenes of “SNL,” where he got candid about being on the show and taking on the role of playing President Donald Trump. “I enjoy being a part of it,” he said, before admitting, “Playing him is not a lot of fun. He’s tense, he’s angry, he’s pissed off, and that’s not fun to play.”
