    If you told me that one of the stars of "Billions" was going to portray Rob Ford, I'd have bet $0 on Damian Lewis and a lot on Paul Giamatti.

    He looks like a blond version of one of the hosts of "Two Fat Ladies."

    Remember when they did the ridiculous make-up job on Biff in one of the Back to the Future movies to make him into an adult version of himself?

    I am guessing “Run This Town” is taken from something Ford said to Hulk Hogan as they armwrestled at Toronto’s Fan Expo some years ago (I was not in attendance).

    Hogan: “After I take this match, I’m gonna take your job! They’ll call me Mayor Hogan!”

    Ford (meekly): “I run this town, man.”

    Pretty cool if that’s where they got the title.

    EDIT: Dammit I was wrong. Ford said “own,” not “run.” So there goes that.

    Clearly Trumpists' favorite Canadian politician.
