8th grader gets standing ovation at graduation with impersonations of Trump, Clinton
The No. 1 question you'll have after watching this video: Why doesn’t this 8th grader have his own comedy series yet?
Student Jack Aiello, who recently graduated from Thomas Middle School outside of Chicago, impersonated the 2016 presidential candidates during his graduation speech, and it brought the house down.
He does a pitch perfect presumptive nominees Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders -- and as a bonus, throws in Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and President Obama.
Naturally, Twitter went wild.
Even Cruz commended Aiello: “Nicely done, and congrats on graduating!”
