WARNING: This Is a Trump Impersonator

CLAY: I know gas prices are skyrocketing everywhere, although small positive: Gas prices have come off about 10% from the all-time highs they have hit. So maybe there was a little bit of speculation going on early in the energy sector. Maybe it’s not going to be as bad… I don’t want to try to sell false positives here, but at least coming back off 10% from the 13-year highs is a positive, even as prices continue to go up across the country.

But we’ve got a Trump impersonator. I want to make sure that everybody out there in the news media who is listening and covers this show understands, this is an impersonator. This is not Donald Trump himself. He has not called into the show. This is a Trump impersonator, Shawn Farash, talking about gas prices. Enjoy.

BUCK: That is —

CLAY: That is unbelievable.

BUCK: He’s the best Trump impersonator I have ever heard. There might be others, but I’ve heard a lot of them. That guy is the best Trump… First of all, it’s great content, too. It’s very well written. He’s not just sounding like him, but he actually is saying funny things about everything. I think Trump would say everything. That was all Trump, stuff that Trump would say.

CLAY: That’s why I say, ’cause if you just got in your car and you didn’t hear my introduction and you just turned that on, you’d be like, “Oh, they’re playing a clip from Trump,” or he’s on the show again. Maybe I shouldn’t have teased that up. I should have just played it.

BUCK: Yeah, I would have let you play it to see if people picked up.

CLAY: That’s right.

BUCK: Clay, if that guy called you and he was like, “Clay Travis, I want to be on your show, the best show,” you know, if he did the whole thing, I would be like, “Yes, sir, Mr. President.”

CLAY: I a hundred percent would think that was Trump.

BUCK: Yeah.

CLAY: If that guy called Saudi Arabia right now, I bet they would talk to him.

BUCK: He could get a deal done!

CLAY: They won’t talk to Biden, but I bet they would talk to the Trump impersonator.

BUCK: He could probably do an international deal as the former president right now on the phone. That guy is amazingly good.
