Former President Donald Trump made a surprise appearance in a Florida court on Monday, but it wasn't for any serious legal matter. Instead, Trump was there to try out his new career as a clown. And judging by the laughs he got, it seems like he might have a future in the circus.
The court, which normally deals with serious criminal cases, was transformed into a circus tent for the occasion. Trump arrived wearing a bright red nose, oversized shoes, and a rainbow-colored wig. He waved to the crowd and honked a horn as he made his way to the witness stand.
The judge, who was also dressed as a clown, asked Trump to explain why he was there. "I'm here to make people laugh," Trump said. "I've always been a clown, but now I'm taking it to the next level."
The audience erupted into laughter as Trump started juggling three rubber chickens. He then pulled a rabbit out of his hat and pretended to make it disappear. "Where did it go?" he asked, as the audience roared with laughter.
Trump also showed off his balloon animal skills, making a giraffe, a poodle, and a giant elephant. He then proceeded to make a balloon wall and pretended to climb over it, a reference to his infamous border wall proposal.
The highlight of the show was when Trump brought out a pie and smashed it into his own face. "This is what I think of the fake news media," he said, as the crowd cheered.
After the performance, Trump thanked the court for the opportunity and said he was looking forward to his next gig. "I hear there's an opening at Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey," he said. "I think I'd be a great addition to their clown troupe."
While some critics have accused Trump of making a mockery of the justice system, most people seemed to enjoy the show. "It was hilarious," said one audience member. "I never thought I'd see a former president juggling rubber chickens, but here we are."
Only time will tell if Trump's clown career takes off, but for now, it seems like he's having a lot of fun. And isn't that what really matters?
