Meryl Streep makes a ridiculously good Trump in this hilarious clip

Just when we thought Meryl Streep had played every character worth playing, the Oscar-winner goes and surprises us by dressing up as none other than Donald Trump.

Dressed in a comically long red tie, fat suit and orange wig – with a face full of badly applied fake tan – the 66-year-old actress joined Christine Baranski on stage last night at the annual Shakespeare in the Park Public Theater Gala in Central Park.

The two actresses looked the part as Meryl sang lines like "You'll let me know, why all the women say no" to The Big Bang Theory's Christine who was dressed as Hillary Clinton.

The performance of Brush Up Your Shakespeare from musical Kiss Me, Kate was highly praised on Twitter as audience members tweeted excitedly about the rather unusual duet.

All we need now is for Meryl to run for president.
