      James catches Trump just right...eccentric but not hysterical. In impressionist must respect the full range of the person, and Alec Baldwin was 0% respect and 100% PROJECTION (a rage-filled fanatic). I never thought Kate McKinnon's appearance or mannerisms echoed Hillary, but she captured her PERSONALITY and essence more on-target than a Target Checkout Lady, so she nailed it. PS I'm very conservative and if the actors demonize Hillary or Trump, it's just not funny.
