Trump wants Darrell Hammond to replace Baldwin

Ignoring all the recent setbacks his administration faced this week, Donald Trump, the president of the United States of America, took time out for an early morning rant against actor Alec Baldwin who impersonates the president on comedy sketch show Saturday Night Live.
Early Friday morning, the southern hemisphere woke up to Donald Trump's error-filled Twitter rant against the actor.
The agony remark was a response to Alec Baldwin's interview with The Hollywood Reporter in which he likened portraying Trump to agony.
“Anybody over this guy,” said Baldwin. “It doesn’t matter. We have to get rid of him.”
Trump misspelt the actor's name and the word 'dying' in the first tweet. After realising the mistake in about 10 minutes, he deleted the tweet and replaced it with a correct one. Keeping the hate unchanged.
Alec Baldwin, whose dying mediocre career was saved by his terrible impersonation of me on SNL, now says playing me was agony. Alec, it was agony for those who were forced to watch. Bring back Darrell Hammond, funnier and a far greater talent!

In the tweet, he wanted actor Darrell Hammond to be brought back because watching Baldwin is agony for Trump.
Darrell Hammond impersonated Trump on the late night comedy sketch show until 2016. During the US Presidential election year, Alec Baldwin took over the responsibility. The sketches also won him an Emmy last year.
Both, Hammond and Baldwin, are yet to respond to the Tweet.
