They both made each other a lot of money in the late 80’s, but does Mike Tyson really believe Donald Trump can be the leader of the free world.

Speaking to HuffPost Live on Monday, Tyson talked about why Trump had earned his endorsement:

“Let’s try something new. Let’s run America like a business, where no colors matter. Whoever can do the job, gets the job,” Tyson said.

While Trump has gotten criticism for his inflammatory comments about immigrants, Tyson was quick to come to the candidate’s defense. Tyson admitted that Trump’s words were “crude,” but he said he doesn’t believe Trump actually “thinks of Latinos in that way.”

That would be great, except I’m not sure how many women or men of color Trumps employs, so I”m not sure his current business practices will make America any better.
