Was the Boss Baby based on Trump? Yes, I know he’s originally from a children’s book. They sure look alike.

“As he settles down, they bring him a Diet Coke, while the rest of us are served water, with the Vice President sitting at one end of the table. With the salad course, Trump is served what appears to be Thousand Island dressing instead of the creamy vinaigrette for his guests. When the chicken arrives, he is the only one given an extra dish of sauce. At the dessert course, he gets two scoops of vanilla ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, instead of the single scoop for everyone else.” –Time Magazine ---

In a now-infamous passage from the adult entertainer’s newly released memoir, _Full Disclosure_ , Daniels writes in granular detail about her alleged 2006 affair with the future commander-in-chief, writing, “I lay there, annoyed that I was getting fucked by a guy with Yeti pubes and a dick like the mushroom character in Mario Kart … It may have been the least impressive sex I’d ever had, but clearly, he didn’t share that opinion.” Source: Rolling Stone This is fun! ---
