She is best known for her impersonation of Sarah Palin in the 2008 election, but Tina Fey says she's found a new source of inspiration this time around.

His name is Donald Trump, and you might know him from the tastefully placed signs tacked onto the sides of some skyscrapers, which it turns out, are not loved by everybody.

Speaking at the Television Critics Association press tour in Beverly Hills, California Tuesday about her new Netflix series, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Fey was asked about Trump.

"It’s great for comedy. It’s one of those things where I’m sure Saturday Night Live wishes they were on the air right now... I do feel like next year at this time hopefully you’ll be doing a panel with just Darrell Hammond being given a lifetime achievement award for whatever sketches come away," she said.

Saturday Night Live's "Weekend Update" co-anchor Colin Jost shares Fey's view on Trump.

"It's crazy. I'm guessing he's still going to be around when we come back so hopefully it will have reached a nice fever pitch. It's just amazing," Jost told Business Insider. "Who would not want to see Trump and Hillary Clinton debate?"

"I don't think he's going anywhere. In the meantime, before it gets to an actual decision, I'm thrilled that he's around because the entertainment value is high."

This will be the first campaign since 1996 without Jon Stewart's running commentary, but maybe Trump's political flowering is just the thing to invigorate a new era in political comedy.
