and cleaning porta-potties at a burrito-eating contest in August, I know what I'd choose. Lunch with Trump would be a soul-killing experience involving soggy hamberders and soggier fries and cold KFC, washed down with Diet Coke, plus one scoop of ice cream while he got two, and you'd have to listen to him bloviate about his inauguration crowd, and he probably emits a foul odor of hairspray and meat farts. Please, give me the porta-potties.

for the event, even though he was in the area campaigning.

Trump people don't care about following any stinking rules.

You “could” win, but you won’t if they don’t actually draw a name.
