Sorry, Used Care Salesman!

I'm sorry, but Trump reminds me of a used car salesman. Not the real life used car salesman but the one portrayed in shows and movies of like the 50s, 60s, and 70s. You know, they would wear plaid lime green pants white shiny shoes. And then they would match that nicely with an orange shirt with a powder blue jacket and a bright yellow tie. And to top it all off a floppy toupee. On top of all his flashy clothes would be his outgoing character. One that would be loud and would never shut up, because he didn't want you to get away. And the only thing coming out of his mouth was bullshit and lies. Anyway, that's how I see Trump. I've heard he wears a blue suit with red tie, but I always see him in his clown suit.

"The Yugo famously holds the reputation as one of the most ridiculed cars in history. Imported from former Yugoslavia in the 1980s, it was plagued by erratic quality control and mechanical failures. "

a Yugo was speeding across the Mackinac Bridge, in high winds, ended up at the bottom, under 150 feet of water.

Funny thing. When "Consumer Reports" was testing automobiles, the Yugo broke down after 20 minutes.
CR sent for another one....after 30 minutes the other one broke down !
The Dude that was testing it said "Well...it did improve some.".. Jesus !
