Donald 'Talk To The Hat' Trump is not (I suspect) a man much given to introspection. He thinks he's great, therefore, he must be great. Quod erat demonstrandum.
But a bunch of Muppets saw through that nonsense 10 years ago. And that should give any man pause. It happened in an episode of Sesame Street entitled 'Grump Apprentice'.
The episode introduced a loud, abrasive, obnoxious character, Donald Grump. With his flashy suit and orange hair, he is, we're told the 'trashiest' resident of the Street.
'His name is on every piece of trash in town,' remarks another Muppet reverentially.
Grump spouts his 'you're fired' catchphrase, boasts and acts like, well...like Donald Trump.
In the end, he's fired himself (by Oscar).
The gang on Sesame Street had Trump's number; will it be long before the American public does too?
