They were married, incidentally, by Norman Vincent Peale, the prophet of Positive Thinking, and then Trump put his bride right to work supervising the interior decor for all his projects.

...trouble. And gets it. Thugs drill him with lead, he gets wet paint on his jacket, a bear trap snaps on his leg, and a window slams down on his fingertips. Nordberg's partner, Lieut. Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen), solemnly swears revenge. But before he has * brought the evil Vincent Ludwig (Ricardo Montalban) to justice, Drebin must do business with a killer fish, a body-stocking condom, a ballplaying assassin (Reggie Jackson) and the Queen of England.
