All he did was focus on how much he could take, and never once did he consider what he could give

He likes to say how he is best at everything, and he is at everything despicable and corrupt with no saving graces whatsoever.

(5,815 posts)4. His take on everything is: How will I benefit from this?
Never once in his miserable life has he been interested in the common good. It is always all about him and he benefits. If he doesnt benefit personally, it is not worth his precious time.
History will not be kind to tRump because he has done nothing to deserve praise or kind words of remembrance. He has been a selfish bastard for his entire life and has been recorded for posterity as a mean spirited, petty rat. So history will treat him accordingly. Not much he can do to change his fate. He has done this to himself and most people will celebrate when he is dead and gone.

he figured out that all he needed was his inherited fortune and his father's business connections to manipulate his way to "stardom" and "power" using bribes and intimidation. Same with "10-yacht, 2 helicopters" Betsy DeVos and others. At one time having a lot of money often meant you had done something to deserve it.
