"Saturday Night Live" is having its best season in overtwo decades.
And Alec Baldwin is largely to thank. His portrayal of President Donald Trump has been a hit for some time now. But maybe he's a little too convincing.
El Nacional, a Dominican newspaper, printed a story about Trump but accidentally used a photo of Alec Baldwin in his Trump get-up instead of the president himself.

We know, right? Twitter thought it was pretty hilarious.
@AlecBaldwin Wish I could have seen your face when you saw this morning's news. #dominican @ElNacional

The newspaper has since issued a correction.
