After Jim Carrey and Jamie Foxx, Alec Baldwin has come to Kathy Griffin's defense.

Baldwin, who has been impersonating Donald Trump on "Saturday Night Live", took to Twitter to show support for the embattled comedienne following her teary press conference where said she felt bullied by the President and his family, reported Ace Showbiz.

"Dear Kathy Griffin," he began, "Kathy....Baby...I've been there. The whole Henry Hyde thing w Conan, where we bring out an oxygen mask at the end? A joke. That's what I thought. That's what we intended.

"No one walked out of the studio and said, 'No! We're serious!' No one. But all your gutless, weasels in the GOP insisted that I actually threatened Hyde. They played the victim beautifully."
 

He went on, "...Noone believes you meant to threaten Trump. Trump is such a senile idiot, all he has is Twitter fights."

He concluded, "Ignore him. Like the leaders of all the other countries in the world. Ignore him.
