The Donald Show

Imagine: Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the USA. I keep thinking of the possibilities. One possibility is a new reality show. Recall that Trump hosted and co-produced a reality show called The Apprentice. He knows how reality shows work. He is experienced at starring in a reality show. So how big a leap is it to imagine a new Trump reality show called The President?

With cameras in the White House, we could watch The Donald in the Oval Office as he deals with foreign dignitaries (“You damn sure will pay for that wall, amigo!”), manages Cabinet meetings (“You’re fired!”), and irons out America’s most pressing problems, such as political correctness.

Talk about transparency in government! If we could switch on our TVs and watch our Chief Executive “behind the curtain” as he threatens our adversaries with annihilation if they misbehave, and then backs up his threats by pushing the Big Red Button that launches our nuclear arsenal, well … it might be a very brief reality show, but it would be entertaining to the end.
