With the help of a $4,000 custom-made wig, professional Donald Trump impersonator John Di Domenico has been transforming into Trump for more than 10 years. Although not a natural look-alike, the entertainer impresses with his spot-on imitation of Trump's voice and mannerisms. 

But as the real Trump makes increasingly controversial comments, Di Domenico says its getting harder to play him for laughs. His recent comments about barring Muslims from entering the U.S., for instance, have him wondering if he might have to hang up his wig. 

"I can't even comedically touch that. It's so radioactive," he tells Shad.
