Alec Baldwin should play the role of Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner

*There is no way that Trump was going to allow himself to be associated with a group of "lying" journalists" who have become "enemies of the people" and are in the business of peddling "fake news" to Americans.

It's too bad that Trump is so very sensitive and his feelings can be hurt so easily because America needs a president who is stable and remains under control in stressful situations. I think that this dinner would prove to be more than he could possibly handle without coming unglued.

An unidentified source revealed that Trump once tried to be more personable and friendly toward others that didn't share his beliefs and opinions; so Trump thought he would poke a little fun at himself, to try to be somewhat self-deprecating. But it just didn't work because, after he criticized himself, he didn't laugh it off and, instead, erupted in a fit of anger.

There's another strong rumor going around indicating that Trump is going to hold his own dinner that very evening, kind of in competition with the Correspondent's dinner. His guests will include his wife, his daughter Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner, Reince Priebus, and his top advisers Steve Bannon and Steve Miller.

The conversation will, no doubt, focus on Trump's war against the corrupted, incompetent, lecherous media and how he and his advisers can turn the American people against it. Trump, as we have seen, is not the greatest advocate of free speech, that is, unless journalists write articles praising him and all the achievements he has mad; at least in his own mind.

So here we have this great dilemma because Trump will not attend the dinner. How will we fill this massive void? Is there someone who can fill in as his replacement? Oh, I know, I know!

The perfect substitute for Trump would have to be none other than Alec Baldwin.

Now I don't know If Baldwin will even be invited to attend this dinner; or whether he might be asked to be the host and then perform a comedy skit in which he would play the role of Mr. Trump, just as he does on Saturday Night Live. Just recently Baldwin indicated that, if invited he would accept.
