    Just think about it. You’re born filthy rich. You inherit 500 million dollars, in the 1980’s. You learn to live off of loans from banks, how to inflate the worth of your “properties,” and how to deflate the worth of your “properties” to scam banks, because unlike your father, you’re an absolute moron when it comes to making an honest buck. Even with the army of lawyers and accountants you inherited from dad.

    So when American and European banks stop loaning you money because you default on all your loans, you need a new source of income. Your best bud Super New York Mayor Man ruined your daddy’s connections with the Pizza Guys, so when some guy who sounded like Chekov from Star Trek called and said he wanted to buy 50 condos at the same time, you knew God was Real.

    Life was good. You still hadn’t made a single honest buck, but boy did those Russian guys like their condos. You even had your own TV show, where everyone could see how much you loved being a bully and an asshole. You even had your own beauty contest, and saw lots and lots of that sweet, sweet 18 year old T and A.

    You. Had. It. Made. Millions of dollars. Eastern Block ex-porn wife who couldn’t stay off of the phone with someone named Vlad.

    It could have went on until you had your stroke on your gold plated shitter.

    But no, your ego is so fragile, you’re such a raging narcissist than you have to play King of the World, too.

    What a fucking idiot.

    Edit: I didn’t mean to imply Fred Trump was honest. I meant that he actually made his money, unlike Donald, who inherited his.

      It’s why society sucks. The people who could change things for the better don’t. They could make things better or just retire. Instead they make things awful.

      He also allegedly liked busting in on sub-18 year olds at those pageants as well. He also allegedly had a long history of using “illegal aliens” as labor so he wouldn’t have to pay them and they had no recourse.

      Listen/watch episode 300A & 300B of The Dollop podcast on Trump and be amazed he went this long without someone (he couldn’t counter-sue away) bringing charges.

      We have no idea how much running for president was Trump idea, vs Russia’s. Trump didn’t want the job, Melania definitely didn’t want him to win, and Trump thought about running a few times before but never cared to do it. He just doesn’t have the balls himself, he’s a huge coward. And Russia provided a lot of assistance and benefited immensely from it. More so than Trump himself.

      So I’m betting there was a call in 2014 or 2015 between Russia and Trump. My bet is there was blackmail or promises made if he ran.

      Now he’s hooked on the attention, but the first time around it’s dubious it was 100% what he wanted to do.

        Seriously, the only thing you have to do to manipulate a narcissist into doing what you want is to kiss their asses, and tell them what they want to hear. It’s that stupid easy.

        Putin destroyed Clinton because he knew she would bring down NATO on his head over any of his invasion plans, just like Biden is doing now. Trump talked openly about leaving NATO. I wonder why.

      Not arguing with you at all on the moron accusation, but Fred Trump’s bucks were just as dishonest as his son’s are.

        I didn’t say he was honest. I said he was a better business man than his son. Fred made his money, Dummie inherited his.
