Donald Trump meets his mini-me
Donald Trump wants to give the Presidency another go and is currently on the campaign trail in the USA. A new president will be elected in the USA in November this year, and Trump will almost certainly be the candidate on the conservative side. During one of his latest appearances, which he made at the Liacouras Center in the US state of Philadelphia, he met a very special fan who certainly made an impression on him.

Admittedly, the boy had gone to length to catch the former President's attention, not only by dressing up in an amazingly similar costume, but also by putting on a blonde wig with Trump's typical quiff.
Donald Trump clearly likes the boy's devotion
This did not go unnoticed by Donald Trump. While some might consider the costume cartoonish, the convicted felon seemed to like it. He was particularly generous and gave the stunned boy, who was visibly emotional with tears rolling down his face, a 20-dollar bill on which he had previously put his signature.
