Just went through 4 'search' pages of the 'trump-gotti connections' and did not see much recent. Batch of credible articles in 2016 [Newsweek, Politico, etc., few more in 2017l, pair in 2018].

trump only seems to model himself on gotti - hair, fat, walk, clothes, low speech/education, obsessed with bullying enemies, boasting, lying, payoffs, illegal tactics, disdain for law, ethics, morality, common decency - list seems endless.
