Johnny Depp: Trump is a ‘brat’

Johnny Depp, who played Donald Trump in a full-length viral spoof, says the GOP presidential front-runner is “a brat.”

{mosads}“I approached Donald Trump as what you kind of see in him when you really watch him,” Depp told a crowd Saturday at Arizona State University in a video first posted by TMZ. “There’s a pretense, there’s something created about him in the sense of bullydom,” the “Pirates of the Caribbean” star continued.

“But what he is, I believe, is a brat,” Depp said, “He’s a brat.”

Depp donned a blonde wig to portray Trump in a 50-minute faux television adaptation of the real estate mogul’s book, “The Art of the Deal,” in a Funny or Die video last month.

The 52-year-old Golden Globe winner slipped back into his Trump impression while speaking to the college students, saying as Trump, “Everything is mine — even if I don’t own it.”

“I’m going to build a wall,” Depp continued to laughs from the audience, “a fabulous wall, a sensational wall. And all my billions are not going to have to pay for it.”
