He kept a pet ape called Tata while in Indonesia

Now he keeps a court jester called "Slow-Joe" for his amusement.

He wears $1,500 (£952) Hart Schaffner Marx suits” Let’s see...ten of those is equal to...that WHOLE wardrobe issue of Sarah Palin.....

Math challenged I see, 1,500 *10 is 15,000 not $150,000

• He ate dog meat, snake meat, and roasted grasshopper while living in Indonesia
