As it turns out, there is already a speech written for Donald Trump when he cleans up the Ides of March primaries and clinches the Republican nomination. Well, sort of.

Jon Favreau, a former speechwriter for President Barack Obama in the White House and during his campaigns, penned a piece for The Daily Beast published Friday that imagines how the Manhattan businessman would celebrate his nomination on March 15 before supporters in Cleveland.


"It’s not something I necessarily enjoyed doing, anymore than I would enjoy channeling the voice of Kim Jong Un or a Kardashian," Favreau wrote, noting that more than 90 percent of his material is lifted directly from Trump's past remarks and statements. "Enjoy. Actually, please don’t," he pleads, before getting to his draft.

Indeed, the majority of the speech is a mix of Trump's most recognizable lines on everything from education to the way the rest of the world treats the United States.

"Here’s the story, folks: We won. We did it," Trump said. "You know I can’t help myself, I’m just gonna read a few of the exit polls here: Trump wins by 7 points in Missouri, 5 points in North Carolina, 2 points in Illinois. Come on Illinois, what’s wrong with you? You can do better than two. Florida, 5 points. And folks, right here in Ohio, we won by 12 points. Beautiful. Incredible. I love you, I really do."

Favreau, incidentally, is not the first former presidential speechwriter to look ahead at what the future months might hold should Trump win the nomination. In a POLITICO Magazine piece published Wednesday, Matt Latimer, who wrote for George W. Bush, imagined what the first presidential debate between Trump and Bernie Sanders might look like.

For starters, the fictional Trump's running mate is Oprah Winfrey and he has already ratcheted up his attacks on Sanders' democratic socialist message. In reality, Trump has already said that Sanders is beyond "socialist" and possibly "communist" with his policies.
