A rarity in politics: being cool 😎

🎤 Whisper Transcript (en) ⏱ 32s

"As the mayor, he was launching some swimming event dressed in a suit with a shirt and tie. Now, a lot of politicians don't like showing their bodies, though I think that given Donald Trump clearly fancies him madly, I'm sure he's got a perfectly presentable physique. But he decided to take part in the swim, just dive in wearing his suit and shirt and tie. Now, I can think of both politicians. That is going to look so weird as to be absurd. He just looked cool. He looked really, really, really cool."
