Donald Trump doesn’t appear to be a fan of Sacha Baron Cohen, and Sacha doesn’t seem to care one bit.

The POTUS is one of the main topics of the new movie, “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan”, and he shared his thoughts on the flick with reporters.
In the film, Cohen’s iconic Kazakh newsman character is given the mission of delivering a gift to Trump’s Vice President Mike Pence in order to save Kazakhstan from the disgrace it faced from the first Borat movie.
He notably dresses up in a padded suit, wig, and heavy make-up to impersonate Trump at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Maryland in February (20) and, when asked by reporters on Air Force One if he saw the footage, Trump insists, “I don’t know what happened.”
“But years ago, you know, (Cohen) tried to scam me and I was the only one who said no way,” he recalled. “That’s a phony guy and I don’t find him funny.”
“To me, he’s a creep,” Trump added, according to Voice of America White House bureau chief Steve Herman. However, his comments don’t appear to have fazed the Brit, who took to Twitter to share an article about the comments and wrote, “Donald – I appreciate the free publicity for Borat!”
Asked if he’s seen the #Borat2 footage and if he’s worried about security breaches, @POTUS replies: “I don’t know what happened. But years ago, you know, he (@SachaBaronCohen) tried to scam me and I was the only one who said no way. That’s a phony guy and I don’t find him funny."

Donald—I appreciate the free publicity for Borat! I admit, I don’t find you funny either. But yet the whole world laughs at you.
I’m always looking for people to play racist buffoons, and you’ll need a job after Jan. 20. Let’s talk!https://t.co/itWnhJ8TQF

(2) In fact, the NY Post today reports "it looks to me like an exaggeration through editing."
As soon as I realized it was a set up I called the police, which has been noted in THR article on July 8th.

(4) We are preparing much bigger dumps off of the hard drive from hell, of which Joe Biden will be unable to defend or hide from. I have the receipts.
