It’s embarrassing when you forge a sick note from your parents to bunk a day off school, then get caught red-handed and have to make that call to the folks admitting your guilt.

Of course you were just a kid back then, not a billionaire business mogul who would one day run (somehow with great success) for the presidency.

Only in the ‘stranger by the day’ world of the Donald could something like this happen, Trump posing as his own publicist in a recorded interview from back in 1991.

Now first up here’s the audio from that call in full, Trump using the name ‘John Miller’ to shed some light on his relationship status, with some excerpts below from the Washington Post:

John Miller:  Have you met him?  He’s a good guy and he’s not going to hurt anybody.  The one article said he was going to throw her out of the apartment is total nonsense.  He is going to always treat her well as he treated his wife well.  I mean, he paid his wife a great deal of money.  He did it in a very bad period of time and, ultimately, that was settled.  There were those that say that that was even put that way.  I don’t know if you heard that but that Trump became poor until he got his divorce.  And then all of a sudden, he’s been doing very well and I guess you probably heard that, too.

But he treated his wife well and he treated — and he will treat Marla well.  He’s somebody that has a lot of options, and, frankly, he gets called by everybody. He gets called by everybody in the book, in terms of women.

Interviewer:  Like who?

John Miller:  Well, he gets called by a lot of people…

A lot of the people that you write about, and you people do a great job, by the way, but a lot of the people that you write about really are — I mean, they call.  They just call.  Actresses, people that you write about just call to see if they can go out with him and things.

Interviewer:  You can’t say, like, did Madonna ever really call?

John Miller:  He was so set up with that…

Interviewer:  What about this Ivana thing?  It says in the Newsday Trump also told friends that when he and Ivana met last week, she indicated that she would be interested in reconciliation?

John Miller:  Ivana wants to get back with Donald, but she —

Interviewer:  Really? After saying on Barbara Walters that she never would?

John Miller:  What is she going to say?  What is she going to say?  She’s going to say when he’s with somebody else and had other people lined up, is she going to say, “Yes, I want to get back.  I want to get back.”  You know, she’s a pretty savvy woman and she’s not going to say — I mean, he’s living with Marla and he’s got three other girlfriends, and then, and she’s not going to say, I really want to get back, you know?  She wants to get back, she’s told it to a lot of her friends and she’s told it to him, but it’s so highly unlikely.  That’s off the record.  He left.  I mean, it was his choice to leave and he left.

I could go on but you’re getting the drift I’m sure. Next stop, denial city. Here’s NBC:

Donald Trump on Friday denied that he posed as his own spokesman in a 1991 telephone interview, despite an audio recording that reveals his publicist had a remarkably similar voice…

“It was not me on the phone. And it doesn’t sound like me on the phone, I will tell you that. It was not me on the phone,” Trump said on TODAY. “Let’s go on to more current subjects.”

What a sad little man ‘ol Donald is, although you can rest assured his supporters will somehow find a way to sweep another case of dishonesty under the carpet to keep greasing the tracks of the Trump train.
