The 2016 presidential race has already had its share of crazy developments — the most momentous of which has been Donald Trump reaching the top of the Republican field and staying there for weeks. But this month saw another not-very-serious candidate get surprisingly strong poll results. According to Federal Election Commission filings, Deez Nuts lives in Iowa and is running for president as an independent. And polls show him getting at least 7 percent of the vote in Minnesota, Iowa, and North Carolina. Nuts, of course, isn't a real person. But a real polling firm has been including him in real polls. And the results tell us something about the state of the presidential race — and Trump's prospects for winning the presidency. Who is Deez Nuts? People have been using "deez nuts" as a vulgar slang term at least since it was used in a 1992 hip-hop song. But use of the term soared in March 2015. That's when a video of internet personality welvendagreat saying "deez nuts" into a cellphone and laughing uproariously was posted on YouTube. The video went viral, racking up 17 million views and spawning an internet catchphrase. Google searches for the term "deez nuts" www.vox.com/2015/8/20/9183515/deez-nuts-explained Pictures are from his Instagram page.
