Alec Baldwin reveals he dreamed Trump was on trial for sedition and a 'noose made of recycled COVID masks' was waiting outside the courthouse
Alec Baldwin has said he dreamed Donald Trump was on trial for sedition with a 'noose made of recycled Covid masks' hanging outside the court.
The actor, 62, who plays the president on Saturday Night Live, tweeted Friday: 'I had a dream Trump was on trial for sedition. And outside the courthouse, a noose was hung from a makeshift scaffold. The noose was made of recycled Covid masks.'
Baldwin has previously compared the president to Hitler and in November called for Trump to be 'buried in a Nazi graveyard' with 'a swastika on his grave'.
The House voted Wednesday 232-197 to impeach Trump for a second time for 'incitement of insurrection,' exactly a week after the MAGA mob stormed Capitol Hill.
Speaking Tuesday House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the president must be charged because of the 'seditious attack' on the Capitol by his supporters.
Though most of the charges brought so far have been misdemeanors, acting U.S. Attorney Michael Sherwin said the Justice Department was considering bringing sedition charges against some of the rioters, effectively accusing them of attempting to overthrow or defeat the government.

Alec has been an outspoken critic of Trump throughout his presidency. In February the actor told the public to wake up before the president's 'fascist thinking' becomes the new normal.
In April Alec tweeted: 'Trump has reached for, and nearly gained, a control of the federal govt unrivaled by other Presidents. He fired huge numbers of govt professionals. He steamrolled the Congress, whenever possible. And now this. If you vote for Trump again, you are mentally ill.'
In February Baldwin tweeted: 'It's official. The United States government is as lawless as the malignant dictatorships we've hated in our foreign policy since WWII.'
'Remember that fascistic thinking takes hold when a standard of living is threatened consistently. People think that things are changing, and downward for most Americans. And that this will become the new normal. They are wholly directed by $,' he added.
'You wonder how Hitler took control of a once great country. For those of you too young to recall the War or its aftermath, simply watch how this GOP-controlled Senate behaves,' he said.
'Their sniveling fealty and lack of courage. And you begin to get it,' he added.
It was this week reported that Baldwin his wife Hilaria are 'living in separate houses' so that the actor can quarantine away from his family amid 'concerns about COVID'.
The SNL star is said to be staying at a rented house in Amagansett in the wake of ongoing scandal over the yoga teacher's fake Spanish heritage.
A source told Page Six that he rented a second home in the Hamptons so that he can quarantine away from his family while he continues to travel into the city for work.
It is unclear why that decision has only just been taken given that the couple had been residing together both in the Hamptons and in their Manhattan apartment as recently as the beginning of January.
Hilaria - real name Hillary Hayward-Thomas - has been accused of faking her European background.
It was this week reported that Baldwin his wife Hilaria are 'living in separate houses' so that the actor can quarantine away from his family amid 'concerns about COVID'. The couple are parents to five children - daughter Carmen, seven, and sons Rafael, five, Leonardo, four, Romeo, two, and Eduardo, four months
Alec and Hilaria were last pictured together on January 2, when they were seen enjoying a stroll on the grounds of their East Hamptons estate alongside their kids and the family's two nannies.
It was reported at the time that Alec had been doing his best to keep his wife's spirits up in the wake of the furious controversy that erupted following a viral Twitter thread that made accusations about how Hilaria had been misrepresenting her background for years.
Posted by an anonymous user, the tweets began, 'You have to admire Hilaria Baldwin's commitment to her decade long grift where she impersonates a Spanish person.'
It was liked 20,000 times and led to dozens of people finding examples of Baldwin using a Spanish accent, a jarring contrast to her childhood in Boston where she was known as Hillary and considered white by her classmates.
The actor, 62, who plays the president on Saturday Night Live, tweeted: 'Bury Trump in a Nazi graveyard and put a swastika on his grave.' He added: 'The majority of Americans made the right choice. Trump is a maniac'

Several videos of Hilaria's past TV appearances resurfaced showing her commitment to a Spanish accent, including one Today show segment during which she seemingly forgot the English word for 'cucumber'.
A number of Hilaria's former classmates also came forward to confirm that she was in fact raised in Weston, Massachusetts, by professor parents - and did not have a hint of a Spanish accent during her childhood and teen years.
'I went to high school with her. Genuinely lovely person, I recall, but fully a white girl from Cambridge,' one wrote.
Alec leapt to his wife's defense in the wake of the claims, taking a thinly-veiled swipe at her critics on Twitter in the week after the thread was first posted.
'You have to kind of hack your way through the debris of Twitter,' he wrote. 'Twitter is just a vast orchard of cr**. There's things that have been said lately about people that I love, that I care about deeply, which are ridiculous. I mean, just ridiculous.'
The couple are parents to five children - daughter Carmen, seven, and sons Rafael, five, Leonardo, four, Romeo, two, and Eduardo, four months.
Baldwin has joked he would be glad to lose his SNL role playing Trump, pictured, tweeting: 'I don't believe I've ever been this overjoyed to lose a job before!'
Baldwin has already joked he would be glad to lose his SNL role playing Trump, tweeting: 'I don't believe I've ever been this overjoyed to lose a job before!'
And in January Baldwin blasted Trump supports for what he described as the 'colossal destruction of everything that matters' in the USA in a lengthy Twitter rant.
'The desecration of those ideals and the near moral collapse of this country falls squarely in the lap of Trump's supporters... as opposed to Trump himself, who is merely what psychology labels the 'objective negative function,'' he said.
'Like fire, floods and earthquakes, it destroys, and only destroys, by its very nature. Without prejudice. It is Trump voters, particularly those who would re-elect him who bear the blame. For the undeniable and colossal destruction of everything that matters to us as Americans that cannot be merely monetized,' he continued.
