Channel Nine’s Today show just can’t seem to catch a break.

With their already plummeting ratings, the breakfast show chose to air a cringeworthy segment this morning as they featured a Donald Trump impersonator.

Hosts Georgie Gardner and Deborah Knight awkwardly giggled along as comedian John Di Domenico presented his skit of the US president which he tailored for Aussie audiences.

The interview started off confusing straight off the bat as the two hosts didn’t introduce John by his own name, but by claiming that they were interviewing Trump himself.

As they crossed “live” to Washington D.C., John said: “Hello, Australia. I know how much you love me. And I just want to let you love me. And I just want to let you know everything’s going great!”

The actor is known for his impersonations of Trump, which he has been doing for 12 years. He then took aim at the leader of the free world and referenced the Mueller Report.

He also issued a few awkward compliments to the presenters.

“I just wanted to share it with you, my favourite people, the Australians, especially Deb and Georgie, who by the way, you look tremendous. You look really, really incredible. I have to tell you!” he said.

The two, who were in on the joke, then asked the comedian about Trump’s recent visit to the Queen and Scott Morrison’s election win which took the country by surprise.

“Scott Mo. I love that name. That’s a good one, I have to tell you,” said John, who deliberately mispronounced Morrison’s nickname, ScoMo.
