For actor Alec Baldwin, Inauguration Day represents the beginning of the end of President-elect Trump.
About two hours after Trump tweeted that he’s not interested in allowing ‘A’ list celebrities attend his inauguration on Jan. 20, Baldwin sent out a flurry of tweets Thursday in which he speculates about the day “the most reviled candidate in our history” will become president.
“Unwanted by a significant majority … of voters,” Baldwin tweeted. “A man who has projected little other than an empty braggadocio and synthetic rhetoric about both his qualifications and plans … but Inauguration Day means the beginning of the countdown to when he will be gone. And he will be gone.January 20. The countdown begins.”

Baldwin and Trump have traded jabs in recent months due to Baldwin’s largely unflattering portrayal of the billionaire businessman on “Saturday Night Live.”
Earlier this month, Trump unleashed a response to a skit in which Baldwin portraying Trump during a national security briefing retweeted random people across the United States.
“Just tried watching Saturday Night Live – unwatchable! Totally biased, not funny and the Baldwin impersonation just can’t get any worse. Sad,” Trump tweeted.
The tweet elicited a near-immediate reply from Baldwin, who tweeted back, “Release your tax returns and I’ll stop.”
