“It’s leave. It’s make like a tree and leave!”

Old Biff

My first impression of him 40 years ago when I first heard of him was "What a jerk".

I thought he was a boorish pig, a sexist swine with a big mouth.

I never watched a single episode of "The Apprentice."

Trump 2025 is a more toxic version of the scumbag he's ALWAYS BEEN.

I recall reading other articles about him being an up-and-coming New York real estate tycoon that were positive, but also made him out to be a total asshole. i never understood why so many of these articles were intended to be positive when he was a classic male chauvinist pig.

Never watched "The Apprentice" either, and I'm still proud of that.

As a Chicagoan, who can see that abomination of a building from points in the suburb where I live, I happily raise my middle finger to it.

I'm from the NY/NJ area and well aware of Trump. And HATED him. A complete buffoon and hustler and business failure - and they gave him a show on business?

I thought the premise was interesting, but why not someone with actual business success and experience. Why not Warren Buffet? Or Jack Welch? Hundreds of choices - and they pick Trump?

during my teen years. Hated them from Day 1. Both Chump and his father should have been in jail in the 70's but they had already perfected their methods of paying off those who needed to be. Anyone in the tri-state area knew who and what they were(are). Mark Burnett brought them to national prominence with The Apprentice - another trump family lie. Burnett owes this nation a huge, down on his knees apology for releasing this kraken.

I tried to tell all the people I knew before he got elected who he really was. After his first 2-years I told them:

"Next time people from the tri-state area tell you about one of their own - believe them!!"

It was bad enough the first time, but to go back to the well for a second drink of trump?...No frickin' way! There's a reason this "favorite son" received only 11% of NYC votes in 2016. WE KNEW not to vote for this shyster. He's nothing more than a mobster in a cheap suit. He'll skirt the system and rob you blind until the day he dies, and Jr., Erik, and Barron will be right behind him for the next generation.

I was thinking this morning how this thug touches EVERY aspect of our lives now and he's still not satisfied. When you get all the way down to our daily needs and pleasures and he now controls these, it's just too damn much. Need an aspirin? Tariff. Read a paper? Censorship. Watch your favorite TV show? More censorship to the point of being eliminated. Three years, three months left of this crap, and who knows what's coming up behind?
WHERE IS MY AMERICA?

condemning the Central Park Five to face the death penalty. He's a fucking cretinous sociopathic bastard.

...the fact that he never retracted it or issued an apology tells you all you need to know about him.

He was LITERALLY a child who threw rocks at babies. ROCKS.

When he owned the New Jersey Generals of the upstart USFL. I recall his antics in ruining that moderately successful league and it showed me what a complete crumb Trump was. After that, I took note when I heard his name in the news. It became obvious as time went on just how wretched a human being he actually was.

That is why it has always mystified me that more people couldn't see it for themselves.

Clearly stated.

he was popular back in the 80's.

I tried to watch The Apprentice once and lasted
about 10 minutes, total yuk.

When the opera director Peter Sellars did those
shows on PBS, he set The Marriage of Figaro
in the Trump Tower penthouse. It was really
really out there.

What a lovely couple hitting national news headlines!

He was a piece of work all right... an out and out
Nazi, and raised Donald to be a nazi.

...back when the news was the news!

No longer the case!

Because that is exactly how he behaves.

While most bullies are certainly picking on those who are less powerful, I still remember a few in high school who weren't afraid to mix it up with whomever, just to save face. Trump seems the type that would be utterly petrified of any physical altercation whatsoever. I find it difficult to believe he ever played sports.

Screenwriter Tony Gilroy said the script called for Pacino’s character to have a decadently evil New York City apartment. They used Trump's penthouse apartment in Trump Tower.

To Quote Gilroy from the interview:

Jimmy Breslin, in his Newsday column of June 7, 1990.

i got enough of the short fingered vulgarian.

without the GUARDRAILS and surrounded TOTALLY by 'yes men' and hangers-on for what they can suck out of this second and definitely MORE RABID stage of Trump.

I didn't find out until about 10 years ago.
