Meryl Streep went all out during her Donald Trump impersonation in New York. The actress was almost unrecognizable sporting orange makeup and donning a messy blonde wig and a fat suit as the Republican presidential candidate at the annual Shakespeare in the Park Public Theater Gala event.

Streep was joined by her "Mamma Mia!" and "Into the Woods" co-star Christine Baranski who dressed up as Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. They had Shakespearean banter at a musical faux-debate at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park.

"You'll let me know why it is all the women say no," Streep's Trump sang, to which Baranski's Clinton replied, "Brush up your Shakespeare and the women you will wow. Just declaim a few lines from Othello, and they'll think you're a hell of a fellow."
