Donald Trump walks into a bank to cash a check. As he approaches the
cashier he says, "Good morning, Ma'am, could you please cash this check
for me?”
Cashier: "It would be my pleasure sir. Could you please show me your
ID?”
Trump: "Truthfully, I did not bring my ID with me as I didn't think
there was any need to. I am Donald Trump, the President of the United
States of America!!!!”
Cashier: "Yes sir, I know who you are, but with all the regulations
and monitoring of the banks because of impostors and forgers and
requirements of the banking legislation, etc., I must insist on seeing ID.
Trump: "Just ask anyone here at the bank who I am and they will tell
you. Everybody knows who I am.”
Cashier: "I am sorry, Mr. Trump, but these are the bank rules and I
must follow them.”
Trump: "My goodness. I am urging you, please, to cash this cheque.”
Cashier: "Look Mr. Trump , here is an example of what we can do. One
day, Tiger Woods came into the bank without ID. To prove he was Tiger
Woods he pulled out his putter and made a beautiful shot across the bank
into a cup. With that shot we knew him to be Tiger Woods and cashed his
check.
Another time, Andre Agassi came in without ID. He pulled out his
tennis racket and made a fabulous shot; the tennis ball landed in my
coffee cup. With that shot we cashed his check.
So, Mr. Trump, what can you do to prove that it is you, and only you?”
Trump stands there thinking, and thinking, and finally says, "Honestly, my
mind is a total blank, I have absolutely no idea what to do, I don't have
a clue.”
Cashier: "Will that be large or small bills, Mr. Trump.”
