Trump spent an entire lifetime conning people in his real-estate and development business, whether to investors or to contractors: "95% of units will be sold in the first month and you'll get your investment back"; "we'll pay you upon completion of work." None of this, of course, true. And don't forget what he was promising Trump University students.

The guy's a hokey salesman, snake-oil hawker, from the old days. He's selling snake oil now.

* Goniff is the Yiddish word for " thief, swindler, crook."
