LOL! Why Trump Started Running For POTUS (via Garrison Keillor)

He bet 2 million dollars the Republicans would NOT nominate him.

Now he's stuck doing all this crazy stuff to get them to reject him.

The funniest line was who the bet was with… BILL CLINTON.

You might be able to find tonight's show on NPR. Funny as heck and some great music tonight.

Except it was only one million, and trump was betting he could win. A golf course wager, right before trump announced.

I laughed so hard.

I can't isolate the skit but it is probably somewhere during the first half hour.

Just put yourself up against statesmen (women) and snap: You're instantly equal to them.

But I never thought he wanted to be stuck doing the work.
