Trump Proves Beyond Doubt that hes not related to an Orangutan
A comedian, a millionaire and an orangutan. It may sound like the beginning of a screwball joke, but Donald Trump isn't laughing.
The famously outspoken real estate magnate has sued famously outspoken television host Bill Maher, demanding the $5 million Maher offered to give to charity if Trump could prove his father is not an orangutan.
But legal experts say Trump is unlikely to get a dime from Maher, the host of the HBO series Real Time With Bill Maher, because his offer was clearly made in jest.
"It's parody," said Bryan Sullivan, a Los Angeles entertainment lawyer. "You know Bill Maher is a comedian and a satirist. The offer is so ridiculous."
Trump, however, has taken the comic at his word.
"Attached hereto is a copy of Mr. Trump's birth certificate, demonstrating that he is the son of Fred Trump, not an orangutan," Trump's lawyer, Scott Balber, wrote to Maher last month.
When Maher did not respond, Trump filed a breach of contract lawsuit last week in Los Angeles Superior Court.

Now that The Donald has proven beyond any doubt that he is NOT the offspring of an orangutan, he should perhaps stop acting like one and throwing his feces around.
