Anyone want to predict the actors in the post-election movie?

I see another Game Change type of film being made after this debacle is over. My suggestions for the movie roles:

Hillary: Blythe Danner
Trump: Alec Baldwin
Kaine: Tom Hanks
Pence: Michael Keaton
Kellyanne: Kristen Wiig
Ivanka: Scarlett Johansen
Tiffany: Amanda Seyfried
Uday and Qusay: Gregg Sulkin and Chord Overstreet
Bill: Darrell Hammond
Melania: Renee Zellweger
Chelsea: Amy Adams
Chris Christie: Jeff Garlin

Didn't Baldwin leave his daughter a phone message calling her a pig?

Can't remember all of the details, but it was a very ugly divorce and he was allowed phone calls with his daughter at appointed times, several of which his daughter blew off, which pissed him off.

The Trump campaign has already hired a lot of actors already to provide a cheering backdrop for his public appearances. I think anyone in Actor's Equity or with a SAG card who can show that he or she got paid by Trump to cheer for him should get first crack at any movie roles.

Michael Douglas as Bill Clinton

I can't imagine anyone else playing Kaine other than Hanks. And Amanda Seyfried as Tiffany is just too perfect! Ooohhh, I wonder who should play Marla?! You know there has to be a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff happening with her that will come out after the election.

He doesn't strike me as an ass-man. I picked Zellweger because of the eyes. I bet she could be made up to look just like Squinty McGolddigger.
