Comedian Rosie O’Donnell hasn’t committed to playing Donald Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon on Saturday Night Live, but she’s all dressed up to play the role.

A photo of Rosie-as-Bannon is now posted on the comedian’s Twitter page, complete with a day’s growth of stubble and a scowl.

She also tweeted that the portrayal would get the attention of Trump.

“u know they watch it - cuddled together in short bathrobes in the Lincoln bedroom – eating fast food – tweeting,” she wrote late Thursday night.

Speculation started on Monday, with O’Donnell tweeting that she’d play Bannon on the late-night sketch comedy show, if asked.

“[I]f called I will serve,” she tweeted.

Actor Melissa McCarthy garnered rave reviews – and reportedly also angered Trump – by playing White House press secretary Sean Spicer on SNL last weekend.

There’s no love lost between O’Donnell and Trump, who have had repeated skirmishes on Twitter over the past decade.

Trump has previously called O’Donnell “a pig,” “a real loser” and “a woman out of control.”

Trump’s already unhappy with SNL, especially with Alec Baldwin’s portrayals of him.

Hillary Clinton referenced this during the presidential debates, saying: “This is a man who has called women pigs, slobs and dogs.”

When she was a co-host of The View, O’Donnell said that Trump went bankrupt – something he repeatedly denied.

O’Donnell dismissed Trump as “not a self-made man” but a “snake-oil salesman on Little House On The Prairie.”

She also had harsh things to say about his home life.

“[He] left the first wife – had an affair,” she said. “[He] had kids both times, but he’s the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America. Donald, sit and spin, my friend.”

Trump fired back with Twitter shots at O’Donnell after she announced she was engaged to Michelle Rounds: “I feel sorry for Rosie’s new partner in love whose parents are devastated at the thought of their daughter being with @Rosie – a true loser.”

“wow u r an ass,” O’Donnell replied, via Twitter.
