Please make Melissa McCarthy a mainstay like Alec Baldwin for Trump!

Saturday Night Live got Alec Baldwin to play Donald Trump, John Goodman to play Rex Tillerson (Secretary of State for US), cast members Kate McKinnon plays Kellyanne Conway and now Betsy DeVos too and Beck Bennet plays Vladimir Putin.
Melissa McCarthy as White House press secretary Sean Spicer is the new addition to the mock Trump administration sketch show that is slowly building up.
Sean Spicer has been fumbling with the press briefings since he took over the job. For example, messing with Australian PM Turnbull's name after a conversation between the two leaders. Spicer's love for chewing gum is also becoming the butt of a lot of jokes and SNL writers get creative with it. At one point in the sketch, McCarthy's Spicer attempts to do 'dias lunges'.

The sketch is filled with puns. Do pay close attention to 'Radical Moose Lamb' line!

McCarthy has hosted SNL before and has been a guest for specific sketches. But hands down, this is her best performance ever!
