Kelly Ripa Does Donald Trump Better Than Donald Trump: See All the Live! With Kelly and Michael Costumes

Kelly Ripa Does Donald Trump Better Than Donald Trump
Live!'s Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan won Halloween once more in their series of amazing costumes, including Ripa as Donald Trump and Strahan as Empire's Cookie; see all the photos!

It’s all about that hairpiece!

Per usual, Live!‘s Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan owned the Halloween costume scene, dressing up in an epic string of couple and individual costumes, including Star Wars‘ Princess Leia and Luke, and Katy Perry and Left Shark. But there’s an obvious winner here: Ripa as Donald Trump, complete with that presidential candidate’s unforgettable hairstyle.

Revel in Ripa’s pursed lips, the pinstriped suit, the wide red tie, and, of course, the heavily teased ‘do. Beyond perfect, right?

Of course, there was plenty more hilarity where that came from. Strahan did Empire‘s Cookie Lyon (played by Taraji P. Henson on the series), wearing the sassy former jailbird’s leopard dress, tipped hat, bouncy curls, and serious side eye to perfection. (He gave Robin Roberts, who also did Cookie, a run for her money!)

Earlier in the week, Ripa revealed a sneak peek at her take on Kim Kardashian‘s champagne-popping #BreaktheInternet Paper cover, complete with the reality star’s ample booty. So it should come as no surprise that Strahan got into character as her husband, Kanye West, during the episode, too.
