Donald Trump gets around. This week he's in Cleveland for the Republican National Convention. Will he walk away with the nomination? Probably. Will anything House of Cards -ish happen? One can only hope. Will The Donald be dominating the news cycle? Most definitely.
Now seems as good a time as any to recall a simpler time when Trump was a random rich dude who popped up in TV shows and films once in a while. If you needed a tycoon to bust out a giant cell phone and drop a line about being filthy rich, he was your guy. Even before The Apprentice he'd racked up IMDB credits on shows such as Spin City and Sabrina the Teenage Witch. He's done The Jeffersons, been a punchline on The Golden Girls, and has been berated by the Fresh Prince's cousin. Hell, if this political bid falls through, he'll always have Hollywood.
And we'll always have these cringe-inducing clips. Roll the tape.
