30. Normally such a ridiculous idea

Would Merit a sarcastic reply

However I will not because it is comedic gold for a video short.

The great Trump Escape

Opening scene is Trump in the motorcade complaining he needs to use the bathroom and they pull up to a 7-Eleven. He jumps out of the limo and scoots into the bathroom having grab the football before anybody can realize it.

Next scene is the Secret Service standing guard outside the door asking if everything is okay. Swipe to Interior shot of trump squeezing his ass outside of the window in the back with a plane ticket to Moscow clutched in his teeth.

Final scene is Trump running down the alley clutching the football in both hands, toupee flapping, screaming for a taxi to take him to the airport. Behind him is a mass of Secret Service agents chasing him like the Keystone Cops.

Final cut back to the limo with a befuddled military officer holding the actual football and asking a secret service agent why the president ran off with his lunch.
