The actor took to Instagram Saturday wearing a red 'Make America Great Again' cap similar to the ones worn by Trump's supporters on the President-elect's campaign trail.
But this time there was a pretty big difference: In a reference to the intelligence reports that say Russia hacked the US to sway the elections, the words on the cap were written in Russian - badly.
The words 'сделать америки здорово снова' on the hat do indeed read 'Make America fantastic/great again' in that order, according to former CNN Moscow bureau chief Jill Dougherty.
But the grammar is wrong and nothing like a real Russian would use, she said.
In fact, that is the exact translation given by Google translate.
Trump has yet to respond to Baldwin's latest pop at his political career, although he did launch a three-tweet rant on Saturday night in which he said that those who didn't want closer US/Russian ties were 'stupid'.
'Having a good relationship with Russia is a good thing, not a bad thing. Only "stupid" people, or fools, would think that it is bad!' he tweeted.
'We have enough problems around the world without yet another one. When I am President, Russia will respect us far more than they do now and both countries will, perhaps, work together to solve some of the many great and pressing problems and issues of the WORLD!'
On Thursday President Obama was given a report from the CIA and other intelligence agencies that allegedly identified the Russian officers who passed hacked Democrat emails to Julian Assange via third parties.
