The actor made sure to clarify, “I don’t agree with that.” Baldwin has been vocal about his opposition of the former host of The Apprentice long before he was ever elected president.

The 58-year-old actor is no stranger to comedy, having played an NBC executive on the massively successful sitcom 30 Rock, which mocked the weekly production of a sketch show similar to Saturday Night Live. Baldwin can also be heard in the upcoming animated film The Boss Baby, in which he plays a sophisticated baby of some sorts. When comparing his character in the family film with Trump, Baldwin said, “There are some similarities, especially the lack of happiness.”
