    All I can say is, WOW. I about doubled over laughing when I first saw that ad. The one that I saw was larger than life outside the sharper image store in our local mall.

    I’m surprised that while he is wearing a Trump tie in that photo, that he didn’t take the opportunity to pull up his sleeve to show his Trump watch while pointing to the Trump Beef.

    Nothing says “Business Food” like trump steaks.
