The ongoing hoopla between Fox News Presidential Debate co-moderator, Megyn Kelly and "The Donald" has boiled over into Trump Opting Out of the latest Debate! This is not the first time Trump has gone toe-to-toe with a celebrity counter-part.
Back in the late 1990's and early 2000's, I was fortunate enough to be a regular on MTV's stop-motion animated Celebrity DeathMatch Claymation series. The show was a comedy that pitted famous celebrity's against each other in a boxing ring and had them fight it out to the d-e-a-t-h of one of 'em...sometimes both were squished, stabbed, bludgeoned, shot, or any other manner of outlandish demise. It was a popular tube watcher at the time and is still a favorite among today's young set. Figured when we 1st dipped into the archives in August, for a little Throw-Back Thursday, it could've been with the caveat of having Megyn & "The Donald" duke-it-out at some point.

I do a pretty convincing Trump "You're Fired". But, now it's 20 years into the future...and that voice is sorta so-so for today's Trump. As a matter-O-fact, there ain't too much out there right now for the 'Stump-Trump' sound. That sound seems to have some variation of a New York accent and perhaps a bit rough-around-the-edges thing going on as well. From the podium, he spoke the same. Whereas, Trump may opt for the stentorian thing or a wait & see approach.
Here's a follow-up to our above post date:
It's now 2 1/2 months from our January BLOG posting and we're eager to announce locating that Stump-Trump sound we've all been listening for! It's a spot-on impression of The Donald...and for that matter, an in-your-face Bernie Sanders impression as well. The Stump-Trump projection was maybe the key all along. With an initial almost whispering Nelson Rockerfeller-esque rasp along with a halting delivery, it came together perfectly. WoW, hats off to both of these dudes... and of course the writers. Haven't heard set-ups and rat-a-tat tat deliveries that were that ;locked-in' and as funny since the early days of SNL & SCTV.
