On Thursday night, British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen unleashed a satirical attack against GOP frontrunner Donald Trump. Appearing at the U.S. premiere of his new movie, The Brothers Grimsby, in Westwood, California, Baron Cohen pretended to endorse Trump for president, calling him “the ultimate soccer hooligan." Cohen then predicted that Trump, who he claimed is in need of money after having squandered away a fortune, will pick Bill Cosby as his running mate. The 'Borat' actor added, "Some out there are worried about Trump. It’s absolute nonsense, all right? History has shown that a loud, ranting bloke shouting out racial hatred at rallies has never hurt anyone.”
