Alec Baldwin: I think SNL viewers "want a little bit less" of my Trump impression

Indiewire

“We did it like once a month, this season,” Baldwin tells Indiewire. “Last season, I did it a bunch, and the season before that — the first season — I did it almost every show. I think I did it every show. And I think people are, uh, they want a little bit less of that. And whether I do it much longer, remains to be seen. I don’t — Interestingly enough, the same thing applies there, as everywhere else: if the writing is good.” Asked how his impression has changed over the past few years, Baldwin says: “We’re not doing a David Fincher movie here, or a Soderbergh movie, where we’re gonna etch some finely rendered impersonation of Trump. I made him as two-dimensional as I believe he deserves to be made. And we’ve certainly vulgarized it from time to time, beyond certain limitations. But it’s essentially us repeating back what he says, and just holding up a mirror to what he says and does.”
