He does look like Christian Bale in American Psycho doesn't he?

Given how much that story had Trump specifically in mind, that's not a surprise.

Is it awful to say I wouldn't be surprised if he strangles a hooker in 10 years?

I'm not saying that, but I am saying other people are saying it, the best people

I wish that was real. I'd buy stock in every popcorn manufacturer, because it'd be such a shit show.

I wouldnt watch it, but I'd definitely watch people making fun of clips of it.

This could work if you wanted a reality TV version of the office redone to be a comedy news show, it could be fun watching barron try to pull off satire with behind the scenes trouble

Ha, didn't get me this time Onion... there's absolutely no way he can read in general, let alone read an autocue and also talk.
