The over-the-top and often raunchy costumes and antics of Sacha Baron Cohen as Borat are back, which means more names to the list of unsuspecting victims duped by the comedian playing the role of a Kazakh journalist. On that list include some big names, including Rudy Giuliani. Probably the highest level target was Vice President Mike Pence, where Cohen as Borat dressed as Donald Trump to present Pence with his daughter, who he had slung over his shoulder. And it wasn’t movie tricks or stunt doubles to get the Vice President on camera, Cohen as Borat really did crash a Pence speech dressed as Trump and he did get thrown out? (via Vulture).
It was the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, where it went down, and it was reported back when it happened without people realizing who it was. From The Hill on February 27, 2020, “Security escorted a man dressed as President Trump out of the Conservative Political Action Conference during Vice President Pence’s address on Thursday. The protester began to yell during Pence’s address to the gathering at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center before he was intercepted by security.” And a user posted on Twitter footage of the exit back when it happened.
