Alec Baldwin and Jimmy Fallon faced off on The Tonight Show on Thursday, battling to out-fib each other in the game Box of Lies and showing off their impressions of President Trump.
In Box of Lies, each contestant picked a nondescript container and attempted to trick his opponent about the boxs bizarre contents. Fallon lapsed into President Trump-speak when trying to describe a human hand-shaped arrangement of stuffed olives. Its the grossest thing Ive ever seen in my entire life, he said.
After picking a new box, Baldwin countered with his own impression of the president, scrunching up his face and attempting to convince Fallon that his box held a big fat, juicy burrito from Honduras. The Honduran that delivered the burrito here to this studio, we had him deported, Baldwin continued, adding political bite to a usually innocuous segment.
Both these actors have relied on their impressions of President Trump for laughs in the past. Last month, Fallon poked fun at the presidents impulse-driven decision making and mocked his executive order temporarily banning or limiting immigration from seven countries. Baldwin is a more practiced Trump imitator: his impressions have been a crucial component of the latest season of Saturday Night Live, which he is hosting this Saturday.
