If I Ran, I Would Win: Alec Baldwin On 2020 Bid For Oval Office

  • If I Ran, I Would Win: Alec Baldwin On 2020 Bid For Oval Office
American actor Alec Baldwin feels he can beat Donald Trump in the 2020 US Presidential run.
 
 
"If I ran, I would win," he said, during an interview on a radio show, reports The Hollywood reporter.
 
 
"I can only think of a couple people who I think could beat Trump. If I ran, I would win. I would absolutely win. I 1,000 percent would win."
 
 
However, a bid for the real Oval Office is highly unlikely, because of his hosting duties on ABC's Match Game revival and his wife, Hilaria Baldwin, "would kill" him, according to the report.
 
 
The actor further emphasised that he wants to see "a healthy" Republican Party, so that the Democrats have "a smart opposition to keep them on their toes."
 
 
"I'd like to see the Republican Party get back to [John McCain or Mitt Romney]," he explained during the interview, adding, "I'd like to think that this thing with Trump is a one-off."
 
 
On that note, though Baldwin's portrayal of Trump on 'Saturday Night Live' drew criticism from the president himself, it also earned the actor an Emmy.
