May 2017

As a New Yorker, I've had news of this asshole shoved down my throat for about 50 years.

Is there a camera within a quarter mile? So's Trump. A microphone with 50 feet-- there's Trump...

It got to the point that you would expect a press release every time he took a good shit.

In the beginning it was all about his grand plans and great future. then when everyrhing was falling apart it was about how things weren't falling apart, but that was part of the plan...

Trump Air was a success! Atlantic City showed his genius, not because he blew it and went bankrupt, but because he was smart enough to get out early...

And so it went. Every time he blew his nose and it was a slow news day we got glorious news of the greatest snot ever.

He never, ever accepted responsibility for his bad management. Even when the banks took away his checkbook, that was "winning".

I'm really a little surprised that it took this long for him to say "You're fired" to someone. He took such pleasure in it during the show.
