TINA FEY’S LEGENDARY Saturday Night Live run as Sarah Palin was unfortunately curtailed by the fact that she lost her 2008 bid to be the Vice President of the United States.

Now Donald Trump is actually President-elect though, it looks like Alec Baldwin’s much-loved impression has a few more years left to run.

And last night he had his run out since the election

He talked walls, ISIS and had a long handshake with Mitt Romney

And just like his pre-election turn, people praised Alec Baldwin’s ability to channel the new President

Whoops!

For some people, the prospect of Baldwin doing this for the next four years is the only glimmer of hope

The good thing about Trump winning is that Alec Baldwin will have a job at SNL for the next four years😂😂😂
