If Trump were a car he would be a ford pinto.

[shockey80]

He would pretend to be a luxury car; look at me I am an amazing car, perhaps the best ever. Climb aboard and we will make America great again. Millions of people fall for it and climb aboard, then the ford pinto catches on fire and burns everyone.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. Or an Edsel. Those didn't blow up, though; they just looked bad.

[Motley13]

2. Edsel

3. Except I liked my Pinto...

The Mercury Bobcat version until the day about six years in when the stick shift came off in my
hand on the interstate...oh well....

[Dave Starsky]

10. I had a Bobcat and drove that thing into the ground.

I don't remember ever having a problem with it. That thing took whatever punishment I could give it.

16. You beat me to it!

The Yugo came to mind as soon as I saw the OP.

[ornotna]

5. Youre giving him too much credit

More like a Reliant Robin.

[Mrs. Overall]

6. Or if he were a phone, he'd be Samsung's Galaxy Note 7

[Siwsan]

7. I'm thinking more along the lines of the AMC Gremlin

This one is even the right color.

[Doreen]

19. Yup. came to my mind first.

8. That is a good analogy and I would like to add a fitting anecdote...

My mother-in-law had a Pinto station wagon. One day, upon returning home from shopping, as she was getting out of the car, she saw light from flames. She went in to tell her husband the car was on fire. He came out and pushed the car out into the street so it would not burn their garage or other cars as they waited for the fire department. My husband, who was out there by then said people just drove past, very close, like it was no big deal that this car was on fire and could get worse if the flames reached the gas tank.

That seems to be what a lot of Americans are doing right now.

9. I liked my Ford Pinto station wagon

Bought it used and abused from an old lady.
I drove it from San Diego to Hartford, CT to Pittsburgh, PA,
and for several years after that.

13. It would be a Russian vehicle.

[GoCubsGo]

14. Nope. He's a 1961 Corvair.

Unsafe at any speed.

[NastyRiffraff]

17. If he were an operating system
