I don't understand how people don't see Trump for the con man that he is.

before the rest of the country did. His PR machine worked overtime to brag about his successes (real or not-- mostly not) and the TV show cemented his reputation as a business "genius".

All of those pictures you've seen him with real bigshots weren't exactly staged but Trump just barged in and demanded the picture. The bigshots were usually just too polite to object, or didn't want to make a scene. Some complained, some sued, but everyone wished he would just go away. I have no doubt some would have liked to punch him.

So it was excruciating to witness that POS get such bullshit help from the media & still to this day not be indicted or removed somehow. It's not like there was a shortage of crimes to "get " him for. In fact the list of crimes keeps growing. Ugh.

And he's their guy to destroy it.
