He's an asshole all the way to the bone. He's made assholery into an art form. He's an asshole's asshole.

There were reports that he and his team were surprised by their election night win. Maybe the real goal was to use his elevated political stature to facilitate more business deals for himself, raise tons of campaign donations by teasing for 2020, and amuse himself by making Hillary's presidency a living hell.

and I'm in my late 60s. Trump, a fellow New Yorker, has ALWAYS been this way. Now it's amplified and visible on a national and international scale and stage. He has always been a horror.
