Don King loves the shock factor, which might explain why his hair looks like he stuck his fingers into a plug socket.

Thanks, I’m here all day.

Anyway his latest attention-grabbing efforts centre around campaigning for Trump, a man so hated by black America he may as well become a cop.

This one takes place in Cleveland, Ohio, and if you make it through the first 35 seconds of his rambling you’ll hear his ‘slip of the tongue’:

Deadspin thought it apt to take a few potshots at both:

…the trouble with trying to describe the sheer absurdity of a presidential candidate cozying up to someone as toxic and criminal as Don King is this: King’s despicable body of work is so expansive that trying to hang his reputation on any one transgression only works to cloud your view of all the other horrible shit he’s done. King once stomped a guy to death outside of a bar, and I’m not even sure that’s his primary disqualification from being a political surrogate.

I guess the simplest way to describe Don King is to say that he is a violent, sociopathic grifter who made a living by taking advantage of everyone he could—including countless punch-drunk boxers—and a career out of manipulating the press and leeching off the success of people with actual talent. He and Trump make a perfect pair.

Yes indeed, I’m inclined to agree.
