Hamill is a vocal chameleon—most of his career, post-Skywalker, has been in the recording booth, and his froglike impression of George Lucas remains the world’s greatest.

As Gizmodo points out, the tweet had already made good source material for Futurama’s Zapp Branigan, which voice actor Billy West was equally happy to re-create.

Hamill labels his Trump take as “#1,” suggesting that additional readings are planned. However, Trump takes office in less than two weeks, after which such tweets will be treason, so Hamill better hurry up.
