In December of 1988, Mikhail Gorbachev, Secretary General of the Soviet Union, came to address the United Nations. I went to New York for one day to do a segment on Fox TV with Gordon Elliott's Good Day, New York. Fox thought it would be fun to see what would happen if they took Gorby 2 to New Jersey knocking on doors the same day Gorbachev was arriving. I was so successful that Fox said, Let's hire limos and turn him loose on New York- totally unplanned and serendipitous. The Gorbachev motorcade was on one street, and I was on another. As Gorby 2, I shook hands with 100,000 New Yorkers who thought they shook hands with Gorbachev. The prime moment was when Donald Trump came out of Trump Tower to greet me in front of about 5000 people. The Fox TV cameras captured it for the evening news on Maury Povich's Current Affairs. Everywhere I went in Manhattan, people would stop me on the street and say, You're the guy who got Trump.
