The editors of one of the Dominican Republic's oldest newspapers, El Nacional, have apologised to readers for mistaking Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump. The actor mimics the U.S. President on sketch show Saturday Night Live and it seems his impersonation fooled picture editors into thinking The Cooler star was in fact the American leader. The picture of Alec as Trump accompanied a story about the President's stance on Israeli settlements, published on Friday (10Feb17). Baldwin first started impersonating Trump on Saturday Night Live in October, 2016, during parodies of the presidential debates. He hosted the show for a record 17th time on Saturday (11Feb17). El Nacional followed up the flub with an apology in its Sunday (12Feb17) edition, asking forgiveness from anyone who was offended.
