Somebody could kidnap Trump and demand a ransom for his return. The kidnapper could also offer to *keep* Trump in return for a kind of reverse ransom. The bidding war could be really amusing.
I wanna make it clear that real kidnapping is a truly heinous thing that I wouldn't wish on anyone, including a political figure who I strongly disagree with.
But, as the basis for a reality TV show - which are never based on actual reality - it might be a winner.
Your proposal about kidnapping reminds me of "The Ransom of Redchief", a marvelous short story about the kidnapping of an incorrigible child. (written by O.Henry. It's one of the nicknames my father assigned me in the 1950s.)
There's a variation on that joke.

O. Henry
Ransom of Red Chief is one of my favorite O. Henry stories.
Mine, too. See my note below.
Love it could be both interesting and very funny to watch.
It could be a reality TV show! "The Abductee" or something like that.
As long as they promise to never return him.

Love this toon and blog...Elmo's a good start. I swear it sounded like Vance was asking someone to shoot Harris...what a bunch of thugs.
Well.. you know... parity and all.
Trump will grift on anything. He'll grift on a good economy, he'll grift on a bad economy. He's a cult leader.
Before the end of the week, he'll claim credit for the stock market rise. Again.
Next time they stage something have the actors wear HARRIS-WALZ shirts.

Spoken like a true criminal.
