" The problem with Democracy is that everyone is allowed to vote." unknown.
Daddy, preferred his older brother until he went wrong. He still preferred him after the brother died. So Daddy had only given him 40 millions at graduation, read that as kicked out of the house. Do you think you could make a profit if you started with $40,000,000.00?
In a vain effort to make himself look cool, this shameless self-promoter spent that 40 millions and promptly went bankrupt. Well his businesses did, at least 6 times. Because our boy had protected himself by hiring the man who taught him how to promote properly, Roy Cohn.
Roy Cohn, who served as Senator Joseph McCarthy's chief counsel during the "Communist witch hunt" of the 1950s, later became a lawyer and mentor for Donald Trump.
Cohen taught him to tell a lie so many times that people begin to believe it. He taught him to threaten to counter sue so may times that his contractors finally gave up hope of ever collecting what he owed them.
The Newspapers and glossy mags laughed at him. The more he spent to look cool, the louder they laughed.
Women laughed at him, one or two must have chortled at mushroom boy.
Most importantly, President Obama and the Washington Press Corps laughed at him in a very public manner.
He'd show them, He'd show them all.
Indeed he did and against all odds became the President. The problem was it was the folks he saw as idiots & losers who voted for him.
In his first run as President, the World laughed at him and many people hated him. The people he gave high offices to help him, stopped him whenever he went too far. Too far for them, not for him.
So facing age and nearing the end of life, his mission became that before he died he would destroy the Country who had treated him so badly.
