[SML] Trump's mic- not political

Chip,
This reminds me of the "education conference" Trump sponsored at our
school in Spring 2015 before all this craziness actually began.  My
department supervises the theatre but is ill-equipped with wireless
mics.  We did have one dead-lowest quality omni-directional Sure
lavaliere mic though and the Donald Wanted it.  We borrowed the rest
of the mics from the Student Center.  Naturally the Donald's mic was
hollow sounding and running on the jagged edge of feedback because it
was an omni.

He "fired" my ATD when the ATD came out and brought him a handheld mic
because of the lousy mic quality.

Don't know if he ever paid the bill for that one, since it is a
different office on campus that deals with outside bookings.

BTW, he got a bad review from the school newspaper and pledged never
to come to my school again.  Our loss.
