Trump takes kids, parents on private chopper for fun, votes

Donald Trump is going full speed ahead with his presidential campaign. The GOP Presidential candidate is enjoying more media attention than ever, but also more support from the electorate, after he “won” the first GOP debate on Fox News.

The other day, The Donald was in Des Moines, Iowa, to meet children and the parents whose votes he hoped to get in the 2016 Presidential elections. For that to happen, he was determined to pull all the stops, including taking a bunch of kids on a ride in his private, custom-made Trump helicopter.

And this is when he uttered the words, “I’m Batman!” They came in response to a question from one of the kids, whether he was the Caped Crusader.

If you ask fans, the only Batman is Michael Keaton, a statement to which he subscribes. All the other Batmans are wannabes, posers who have no idea what it means to be Gotham’s dark knight.

If you ask the Nolan fans, then the only true Batman is the one played by Christian Bale in the “Dark Knight” trilogy. Only very few will say that Ben Affleck is Batman, and that happens because his first movie as the character, “Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice,” hasn’t been released yet and because they’re not willing to give him a chance.

For a little boy who had the luck to go on a free helicopter ride with one of the most controversial figures in the US, in the entertainment and political landscape, there is only one Batman. And his name is Donald Trump (he also has a rather hilarious toupee, but that’s another story).
