We were driving in the car and Mila turns to me and she's like, 'I don't think that our son's name is Walt. I think it's Dimitri, and also I think that Donald Trump is going to be the next president." He then joked: "I had missed the whole name thing, because I was like, 'What are you talking about? Trump is not going to be president'’ Then, like, two days later I remembered that she said it, and I was like, 'I think you're right about the name.'"
