[edit]- In the 1989 film Back to the Future Part II, Biff Tannen (Thomas F. Wilson) turns Hill Valley's courthouse into a gaudy casino/hotel (à la the Trump Plaza hotel) where he lives an obnoxiously luxurious lifestyle. In his office is a portrait of himself that was based on one of Donald Trump. Co-writer Bob Gale says that the Trump connection was definitely intentional.[58]

McDonald's was one of the first to feature him, in a spot in which he looked a bit uncomfortable, and Verizon Wireless nabbed him for a commercial that mimicked his role on "The Apprentice."
- ^ Lazare, Lewis (May 20, 2004). "Check-card spot cashes in with Trump". Chicago Sun-Times. p. 65.
Trump leans over the edge of the tower to watch his card plummet to earth and lets out a funny "uh-oh." As a voiceover explains that Visa check-card holders aren't responsible for unauthorized purchases -- a fact we're supposed to believe Trump has no knowledge of -- the television star and real estate mogul makes his way to the street, where we next see him bent over the bin frantically searching for the card -- an amusing image indeed, given the Trump persona we now know so well.
