Donald Trump shamelessly tries to piggy back off Ronda Rousey’s popularity

"That man never drank a Duff in his life."

A politician hopping on a bandwagon for his own personal gain? Stop the presses! Donald Trump claims that Ronda Rousey likes him, but it seems that the 2016 Republican candidate may not be fully aware of how the UFC women's bantamweight champion really feels about him. In a recent interview with CNN, the host of the reality TV show the Apprentice said Rousey is a great example of women being good fighters. He then dropped the bombshell of a claim about the most dominant female MMA fighter in the world.

“Some of them are really, really good. I’ll tell you what, I know some woman that are just — Ronda Rousey is an example, who likes me. I’d take her on my side as a fighter.”

According to the floppy-haired goon, he's liked by Rousey, but what Rousey said when speaking to very same TV station may suggest otherwise.

“I mean, I wouldn’t vote for him. I just really wouldn’t trust the guy with running my country, that’s all. … I’m not really going to get into specifics of it, but, I mean, I don’t want a reality TV star to be running my country.”

If that isn't an overwhelming endorsement, I don't know what is. Hat-tip to Time
