TRUMP: He's just jealous of me, that's all. He has a yuge jealousy problem. Yuge!

SANDERS: I don't believe that's the case, Mr. Trump. Of course, there is an easy way to find out. Would you be willing to submit to a polygraph?

TRUMP: Absolutely not! I'm not the one on trial!

(His eyes flare up as he withdraws two gold Ben Wa balls from his jacket pocket and rolls them with his fingers.)

SANDERS: Well then, what about undergoing an evaluation from a psychiatrist to test your state of mind for delusions of grandeur, paranoia, and narcissism?

TRUMP (raises his voice and swings his arms wildly as his face turns a bright orange): Certainly not! I'm not the one who's crazy. You are! All of you--the media, the Democrats, the Hollywood celebrities! I'm trying to run the ship of state properly, by the book, but you're fighting me at every turn!

Take the wall I'm going to build to keep out the Mexicans, a great noble construction project, no more, no less, but the media have ridiculed me and made up wild rumors that Mexico won't pay for it, that it's just another one of my crazy delusions. But I proved them wrong using geometric logic that tunnels and ladders won't work on my wall. Because it's going to be too big and too strong and no one will be able to penetrate it! No one! And as a result, I'll keep the Fatherland safe from our enemies because everybody knows I'm the only one in the world who can do it! But if members of the press or people like you, Mr. Sanders, continue to challenge my authority or question my sanity, I'll have to lock you up or torture you! Each and every one of you!

(There is a hush in the courtroom as the jury and all the spectators look aghast. Trump is visibly shaken and foaming at the mouth. He attempts to compose himself as he realizes he has gone over the edge and proved the defense's case.)
