So this is presidential material? Hogwash.
sma hat...it looks like to me!!
They’re not old. They’re prematurely orange.
Trump?
No, he's the Joker.
You've got that right.
...Trump?

Actually, that’s Steve Miller.
Vince has probably already got the word out to his staff writers: “See if we can work up anything for these two gomers for the next Wrestlemania...Hair vrs. Guitar, a ‘loser leaves town’ kinda thing...something along those lines”.
Good one:)
