Alec Baldwin perfectly trolls Trump and offers to sing Highway to Hell at his inauguration

President-elect Donald Trump has had an infamously difficult time finding musicians who are willing to perform at his upcoming
inauguration — and he earned a lot of ridicule this past week when he defensively insisted he never wanted celebrities at his big party anyway.

However, there is one A-list celebrity who has offered his services to Trump’s inauguration this year, although it’s likely not one that Trump would accept.

Per The Guardian, it seems that Alec Baldwin — whose impersonation of Trump on Saturday Night Live has regularly infuriated the president-elect — will happily perform at Trump’s inauguration this year.

However, there is a significant catch: Baldwin says on his Twitter page he wants to perform a cover of AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell,” which is presumably where he thinks Trump will be taking the world over the next four years.

Will Ferrell drove Dubya crazy. Remember that? Ditto with the other presidents and candidates lampooned on SNL and elsewhere. Unfortunately Twitter wasn't around back then to give them a forum to rebut those outrages. If it had been, Nixon would never have shown up on "Laugh-In' back in the day, showing, if possible, that he at least recognized humor. I despised Nixon at the time, but would take him any day over Trump. Trump is even more paranoid and has nowhere near the government experience.

he will be filming a movie soon. He gets paid $1400 per episode, but per the article, takes only 7 minutes to get in character.
