I think the most honest, sincere and understandable misunderstanding people, good people make about the piece of shit

Is the assumption that he is not a complete idiot, that he must know something about business and has some education and knows something about general subjects.

He doesn’t.

I am not saying this because I hate him because obviously we all hate him, I’m saying it because it’s true and it’s something Lawrence O’Donnell and other New Yorkers have said about him for years, who know him way better than I do or anyone here.

It’s true that he knows absolutely nothing at all about business, about restaurants, about hotels, about casinos, about golf courses.

Nothing.

That is all. :hi

Oh, let alone government or politics.

He is a brutal psychopath.

It would be unwise to underestimate his power and danger.

But yes he is uneducated, probably illiterate, has no knowledge about any topic unless it relates to
Power and money. And how to commit crimes.
