Meryl Streep is capable of ANYTHING.
One of the true Hollywood greats, the legend that is Meryl Streep has covered many roles in her time as an actress, imitating famous people in history such as Anna Wintour in The Devil Wears Prada and Margaret Thatcher in Iron Lady.
Another successful tribute she can add to her belt is an uncanny parody of US presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Following the many sexist, racist suggestions that Donald Trump has said throughout the run-up to the elections, it’s hard to deny he is not the favourite to win the presidential race.
Meryl took a serious pop at the American businessman at the annual Shakespeare in the Park gala in New York, with the help of fellow incredible actress Christine Baranski.
The Oscar winner wore a fat suit, hair piece and terrible orange makeup to replicate the image of Trump, and the result is UNCANNY.

Meryl and Christine performed a rendition of Brush Up Your Shakespeare from the musical Kiss Me Kate, a song which advises men to woo women with the power of quoting Shakespeare.

How absolutely incredible.

If anything, she looks better than Donald himself?
I’m not holding my breath for Meryl to play Trump in a future biopic. If only…
