Former US President Donald Trump is not in a mood to spare actor Alec Baldwin, it seems. Trump has claimed that the tragic death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the 'Rust' set might not necessarily have been an accident.
Trump and Baldwin's bitter relation is well-known, largely based on the actor's lampooning impersonation of him on 'Saturday Night Live'.
Trump addressed the 'Rust' incident and Baldwin's role in it on Thursday on conservative radio host Chris Stigall's podcast.
"He's a troubled guy. There's something wrong with him. I've watched him for years. He gets into fistfights with reporters," Trump said.

He went on to question how the gun was loaded with live ammunition."As bad as it may have been kept, meaning you know the people that take care of the equipment and the guns and everything else... But even if it was loaded, and that's a weird thing-- maybe he loaded it," he said.
Asked about Baldwin's 'SNL' impersonations, Trump claimed they were "terrible".
"There's something wrong with him. He's a sick guy. I mean, I've seen him for years because he did. I thought a poor job of imitating me," he stated.
