I would make every effort 2 retrain Americans so 2 cre8 jobs. 1 way u make America gr8 again is 2 put it back 2 work."
Baldwin then touched on the controversial appointments of Steve Bannon and Alabama senator Jeff Sessions to high-power positions. "I would make appointments that encouraged people, not generate fear and doubt," Baldwin added.
