![]() DONALD TAKES A DNA TESTA Story by angel![]() Donald is out to prove that he, at least, is 100% white.![]() MELANIA is sitting at the vanity in her bedroom, a colorful little box in her hand. DONALD enters the room. D(suspiciously): Melania, what do you have there? M (startled):Oh, it's nothing, Donald! (she attempts to hide the small, colorful box she was holding under a pillow). D:Let me see that box right now, Melania. M (looking guilty): All right, Donald. (She hands it to him) D (snatches the box out of her hands, looks at it) What's a DNA? (He pronounces this 'dnah'.) I never heard of it. What makes you think you have it? Maybe I should get tested, too. Is it some new disease? M:No, Donald. It's D-N-A; everybody has it. D (angrily): Well, that's stupid.If everybody has it, why test for it? And how much did the test cost? M: $99. D: WHAT?? That's like, almost a hundred bucks! For just finding out you've got something everybody has? Do you mean, like, EVERYBODY? Even poor people? M:Yes, Donald. D: Even the Blacks, the Koreans, and the Canadians? M:Yes, Donald. Everybody. See, the test tells you what KIND of DNA you have. D:(smiling a little); Ohhh--so I guess rich, white people have the best kind, then. M:I got one for you, too, Donald. ********************************************************* Scene II, Six weeks later. DONALD and MELANIA are in the oval office, and a page comes in with the mail. ********************************************************** M (excitedly): Oh, Donald! Look! Our DNA test results are back! D: (steepling his fingers):Excellent! MELANIA TEARS THE ENVELOPE OPEN AND TAKES OUT A SLIP OF PAPER M: Hmmm, I am 76% Eastern European, 23% Western European, and 2% Asian. D: Must be why you like rice and fish-- and those vegetables...disgusting! M:Now you, Donald! D (opening his test results): Let's see...78% Western European; that makes sense, since I'm like, totally Scottish...10% Eastern European--hey, maybe Vladimir and I are related--10% Oompah-Loompah hey, wait! That's not even real! Some guy called Lorry from Scotland, Male told me so!--it would explain stuff, though-- and 2% AF... what's AF? AFGHANISTAN? M: No, Donald, it's-- D(interrupts):Oh, good. I knew I wasn't part sand XXXXXXX(censored) M:No, Donald, it stands for AFRICAN. Almost everyone has African blood. That's why when Steve Bannon was here, he wouldn't take the test. D(with horror):AFRICAN!!??!! No, that can't be right. Look at me! I'm white--sort of; like the other part of a Creamsicle! That can't be right. Melania, burn that paper! (he grabs the paper, looks madly around for a match or a lighter. Finding none, he eats the paper). There! It's gone. You'll never say anything about this, Melania. M: Donald, if you want to stay married to me, you'd better not sign that law you've been talking about that reverses LOVING V VIRGINIA. I would have to divorce you. You wouldn't want me to be married to a XXXXXX, would you? D: Shut up, Melania. This never happened. I'm going out to look directly at the sun.
