Leo MacGary on the West Wing.

It would be a hard thing for them to turn down.

But inappropriate and possibly illegal??? before being elected.

He would enjoy every opportunity to publicly dis Trump. And, as an added bonus, he will get to dis all the Repubs in Congress.

Hell, Bloomberg might even pay for the pleasure!
