All he wants is to be treated fairly, and {insert excuse du jour} is just so totally unfair to the man worth TEN BILLION DOLLARS, that he couldn't possibly overcome the unfair unfairness of it all! Surprisingly (or not), the popular media outlets will quote him and confess themselves persuaded that life for Donald is such an unfair proposition that this latest unfairness is just an unfair step too far. A large majority of voters will disagree, but they're just a focus group or something.
