Every time I watch an episode of "The Millionaire" on YouTube or even SCTV's parody of the show with John Candy as Michael Anthony and Joe Flaherty as John Beresford Tipton (whose face Anthony reveals to the camera because he hasn't been paid in three weeks), I can't help thinking: what if Donald Trump gave away a million dollars each week? Then I see a problem: whereas Mr. Tipton never wanted anyone to know he was the donor, Trump would be publicizing it to the hilt. And how many assistants would he fire before he found the right one--if any? Would he even embark on such a scheme? Let your imagination run wild. And while you're at it, enjoy the show, especially the Tipton/Anthony conversations at the beginning of each episode.
