Donald Trump continues to gain over his opponents in a variety of polls as he works to secure the Republican nomination for president, and now it seems he has found one more fan - Dennis Rodman.

Rodman took to Twitter on Friday and wrote; '@realdonaldtrump has been a great friend for many years. We don't need another politician, we need a businessman like Mr. Trump! Trump 2016.'

Trump seemed to genuinely appreciate the endorsement as well, writing back to Rodman; 'Thank you @DennisRodman. It's time to #MakeAmericaGreatAgain! I hope you are doing well!'

The exchange comes as a bit of a surprise as Rodman is infamously friends with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.

Trump on the other hand, like most other Americans, does not support the tyrannical dictator, though he did call Rodman's trip to the country 'smart' in one interview.

In that 2013 same interview, during which he was promoting the latest season of The Apprentice on which Rodman appeared, Trump also took a dig at the president saying Rodman going to North Korea was 'a lot better than what we have' with President Obama.

Trump was singing a far different tune however a year later when Rodman spoke of the mogul possibly going to NBorth Korea with him, writing on Twitter; 'Dennis Rodman was either drunk or on drugs (delusional) when he said I wanted to go to North Korea with him. Glad I fired him on Apprentice!'

Rodman is all about getting attention, and his m.o. is by being outrageous.

“Rodman is all about getting attention, and his m.o. is by being outrageous.”

Hence his support for Donny. Birds of a feather, and all that.
