Here’s a great job for you Donald

A LONDON company has advertised for a Donald Trump lookalike at £50,000 a year.

They tell hopeful applicants: “You must be willing to be subject to weekly spray tans, daily hair stylist appointments and have a striking resemblance to Donald Trump.”

Forget compiling a short list, this would be a perfect job for The Donald himself.

While previous presidents have made memorable speeches – Abraham Lincoln’s The Gettysburg Address, John F Kennedy telling fellow Americans “ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country” – Trump tweets. He tweets so much you can place a bet on how many a week with Paddy Power.

His presidential edicts are issued from Trump Towers in tweets so he won’t be missed. He can still tweet from London in between high fiving bargain hunters at the opening of a new Tesco and no-one will realise it’s not a lookalike but the man himself.

You would think that a chap who is fond of telling everyone how good he is at business might be tempted by an extra pay cheque, plus having his tan and hair taken care of for free, especially as it could open up new career opportunities for when he leaves the White House.

And let’s face it, his continued tenure is looking shaky after the events of the last week.

Paddy Power is offering odds of 2/7 that he will be impeached this year which are not helpful for the good of the US or the Western world.

Give him decent odds and the President might be encouraged to arrange his own impeachment at 10-1 and make a packet.

After that his career as a lookalike would be assured and could be a steppingstone into movies.

Paddy Power are also offering 500-1 odds that he’ll be the next Bond villain.
