Tiger King quiz: who said it - Donald Trump or Joe Exotic?
The President and the disgraced zookeeper have more in common than you might think
Donald Trump had his say on incarcerated former-zookeeper Joe Exotic last week, answering a bizarre question about Netflix TV show at one of his daily coronavirus briefing.
Yes, someone saw a press conference on the global pandemic as the perfect opportunity to quiz Donald Trump on Tiger King.
An amused Trump, possibly relieved that he wasn't required to answer a question on hydroxycholroquine, said: "Do you think he didn’t do it? Are you on his side? Are you recommending a pardon? As a reporter, you’re not allowed to do that.”
He then said he would "look into it".
The 45th President of the United States and the eponymous antihero of Tiger King are more similar than you might think.
Political ambition, hatred for a particular powerful women (we're looking at you Hillary and Carole) and a questionable haircut.
Not to mention a penchant for a vitriol-laced rant.
See if you can correctly select the speaker of the following turns of phrase.
