Think Leslie Jones Can’t Play Donald Trump? You’re Wrong, Bigly. – Huffington Post

When the world got a taste of Melissa McCarthy as White House press secretary Sean Spicer and Rosie ODonnell floated a Steve Bannon-infused profile picture, the internet demanded an all-female cast to play Donald Trumps administration on Saturday Night Live.

But the internet probably didnt expect a Leslie Jones masterpiece.

I never dreamed I could play the president, Jones says during a behind-the-scenes style skit that aired Saturday night. But then Melissa played Spicer and I was like, Yo, why cant I play Trump?

As seen in the video above, Jones trained with determination to be the next orange-glazed POTUS golden toupee, eyebrows and all.

The impersonation, Jones warns her cast mates, is not a jab at Trumps fragile masculinity and it isnt a commentary on race and politics.

Jones says with certainty: Its about giving America what it wants.

Things, however, dont turn out as planned.

Trump has dutifully expressed his loathing for SNL, especially since theyve doubled down on POTUS since he took office, but reports this week revealed that he may have been most peeved that McCarthy, a woman, played Spicer on last weeks episode.

Now, with Jones attempting her own version of the Donald, the world awaits a reaction from the Commander in Chief.

Jones may have just entered a Trump Twitter war, but from the looks of it, shes not concerned at all.
