00:00I'm going to huff, I'm going to puff, and I'm going to blow this whole thing.
00:06Alec Baldwin is claiming that one of Donald Trump's family members enjoyed his SNL impersonations of the president.
00:12According to reports, Baldwin claimed at a 92nd Street Y event that Trump's former press secretary, Sean Spicer,
00:19once revealed that Melania Trump was a fan of the Emmy winner's portrayal of her husband.
00:24Page Six quotes Alec as saying,
00:42While the claim is not confirmed and Spicer has yet to weigh in as of March 27th,
00:47it's no secret how Donald himself has felt about Baldwin's performance in the past.
00:51Before he was first elected president in 2016,
00:54he reacted to SNL parodying one of his presidential debates.
00:58Mr. Trump, same question.
00:59Do you feel you're modeling appropriate and positive behavior for today's youth?
01:03No, next.
01:06So you don't care about the kids?
01:08Anderson, I love the kids, okay?
01:10I love them so much I marry them.
01:15I've been helping kids my whole life.
01:17In 1992, I helped a kid named Kevin McAllister find a hotel lobby.
01:25You might remember the documentary Home Alone 2 lost in New York.
01:29At the time, Trump said about the performance,
01:41And the back and forth didn't end there.
01:43In 2018, Baldwin addressed his Twitter feud with the president
01:46in an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
01:49I gotta say, you playing Trump on Siren Live, we've all loved it.
01:54It is fantastic.
01:56And you won an Emmy, well-deserved Emmy for it.
01:59But in some article, I think it was with Vanity Fair, maybe you said like,
02:02it's like agony.
02:04It's not like agony, it is.
02:06Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:07It gets exhausting after a while.
02:09Well, the president himself said that.
02:12Exhibit A.
02:13Alec Baldwin, whose dying mediocre career was saved
02:16by his terrible impersonation of me on SNL,
02:18now says playing me was agony.
02:20Alec, it was agony for those who were forced to watch.
02:22Right.
02:24Well, the interesting thing is nobody,
02:26the interesting thing is nobody's actually forced to watch.
02:29I found that out.
02:30We don't force anyone to watch.
02:31You're choosing to watch, yeah.
02:32Yeah, but Trump forces people to listen to him.
02:35I guess we call them government employees.
02:36But anyway, we call them the cabinet.
02:39But anyway.
02:40You tweeted back,
02:41agony though it may be, I'd like to hang in there,
02:43at least for the impeachment hearings,
02:45the resignation speech,
02:46the farewell helicopter ride to Mar-a-Lago.
02:49You know, the good stuff, the good stuff.
02:51Yeah, it was a good comeback, dude.
02:55Oh, gosh.
02:57That was a good comeback.
02:58It's kind of surreal, though.
02:59You know, the president of the United States.
03:00I said to somebody, does he have like alerts
03:03or does he sequester himself for just a period of like tweeting?
03:06Like, is he there, as they say,
03:08watching Fox and Friends in the morning?
03:09He's got like his triple order of bacon.
03:11He likes bacon.
03:12Apparently, he eats like a lot of bacon.
03:14He loves bacon.
03:14Apparently, he loves bacon.
03:15He likes lots of bacon.
03:17And he's got his phone and he's watching the news
03:19and he's in his boxers and his bathrobe
03:21and he's like tweeting, tweeting.
03:23And then, or does he get like alerts?
03:26Like, is he in the middle of like a session?
03:27He's like with North Korean diplomats
03:29and they're talking about nuclear weapons.
03:30He's like, hold on a moment, please.
03:32Alec Baldwin, loser, loser.
03:34Alec Baldwin has a new movie out.
03:36Really horrible movie.
03:38Mediocre career.
03:40Does he, does he, does he like tweet throughout the day
03:44or is it like a big binge thing?
03:46Yeah, I don't know.
03:47Like, it's like an oasis.
03:48He like drinks a big long drink in the morning and he goes on.
