I feel like there’s be some ethical, possibly legal, problem with presenting an imposter as an opponent at an official debate. It’s a bad precedent. Besides, Baldwin comes with too much baggage right now
I didn’t say he was worse than Trump, just that running a shoddy film production that culminated in him fatally shooting someone doesn’t make him a good associate of a presidential candidate
I would argue that 34 felony counts doesn’t make Trump a good presidential candidate, but that didn’t stop him. What’s Alec Baldwin gonna do that will stop him from running at this point??
It almost has to be Alec Baldwin doing Trump at the no-show debate. Recent complications aside, his impression has always been the definitive one.

Shane Gillis gets the Trump scumbaggery down just right.
It takes a scumbag to play a scumbag.
Oh boy what’d he do?
Really? baggage is what makes him worse than Trump?

I don’t think anyone here is going to dispute that. Just that Harris doesn’t need to associate herself with Baldwin
They could replace him with Harrison Ford again.
Sure there would be trouble if they honestly and seriously tried to get him to present himself as the real Trump. Parody however is free and clear.
There are FEC rules about debates:
"The debate must include at least two candidates and must be structured so that it does not promote or advance one candidate over another. (FEC.gov)
They should just have her on SNL sending multiple trumps at once. Probably at least Baldwin and James Austin Johnson.
