    Yes, and the word "Trump" is in it. It's not so funny when explained, sorry. Posted 6 years ago

      Lol, sorry! Jokes go over my head way too often. Although, having to have it explained, kind of makes it funnier...I didn't even pick up on "trump" being in the name. But, the orangeness and comb-over-appearance of the gills are very trump-esque. Posted 6 years ago
