If you haven’t been following the saga around Seth Meyers’s pitch for Chicago President starring Donald Trump, well, it seems neither has Donald Trump. Basically, after realizing that Trump’s behavior isn’t emblematic of a man who actually wants to be president, Meyers came up with a plan, offering Trump the chance to be president … on TV in NBC’s Chicago President. After sweetening the deal to no effect, Meyers has now decided to take a cue from Trump’s book, The Art of the Deal. Since the book was very ghost-written, Meyers figures he’s got a pretty good shot at outwitting Trump with its logic. The book’s advice? Hardball. So, Donald Trump, how would you like to star in Chicago Vice-President?
