Donald Trump sat down for an interview with comedian Theo Von at his Bedminster country club “Some of the stuff started to get a real rattle in it too,” Von explained. “So you’re way up with cocaine more than anything else you can think of?” This prompted an interesting and slightly enigmatic reply from Von, also known by his give name, Theodor Capitani von Kurnatowski III. You'll be your own street lamp.” His curiosity unsatisfied, Trump asked Von if that’s “a good feeling.” “No, horrible,” came the response. “It's a miserable feeling,” added Trump, just as Von expanded at the same time: “But you do it anyway.” The bizarre discussion appears to have taken place around the same time as Trump’s press conference at his Bedminster club last week as he continues his campaign trail for the November election.
