Actor Zach Braff on Saturday suggested Alec Baldwin do his impression of President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner after Trump announced he wouldn't be attending.

"Alec Baldwin time to suit up," Braff, known for "Scrubs" and "Garden State" tweeted.

"I will not be attending the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner this year. Please wish everyone well and have a great evening!" Trump announced earlier in the evening.

Presidents usually attend the dinner, which typically includes the discussion of political journalism as well as some lighthearted joking about both the press and the president. The last president to skip the event was Ronald Reagan in 1981, as we was recovering from an assassination attempt.

This year, the event is planned for April 29.

Braff wasn't the only person to suggest Baldwin, who has become the go to "Saturday Night Live" Trump impersonator, stand in for the president at the White House Correspondents' Dinner:
