    Link.

    Some of you may have seen a recent addition to my usual asterisks. It is 'Made the New York skyline."

    That said, this is a remarkable insight into the Trump Family psyche. "This is the thanks he gets."

    So, ergo, a property developer must be immune from prosecution as that would be thanks due.

    Amazing.

    This skyline thing is one of Trump’s obsessions.

    Right after 9/11, Trump himself publicly boasted that his syyscraper was now the tallest in lower Manhattan again.

    And, of course, he added ten fictional stories to Trump Tower.

    As a kid I went to a lumberyard with my father. There was a sign on the wall, saying there are three kinds of people in the world-

    People who make things happen.
    People to whom things happen.
    People who don't know things are happening.

    I set out to be a person who makes things happen, and have done so all my life, and it's usually very rewarding.
    But the people to whom things happen- blame those who make things happen for not making what happens to them be what they want. They think they are entitled to that, and you are responsible for them having less assets and happiness than others. They will criticize that person and everything associated with them, trying to extort something for themselves that in truth only they can do for themselves.
    But their logic is becoming equal- by destroying anything better. It's the philosophy of losers.
    The people who don't know things are happening are like blind sheep. They become supporters for those who complainers, because they are the loudest noise.... but have no idea why .

    The potential is the same for everyone. What we do with what we have determines who we will be.... and how we will see things. It's a choice; not a condition you can't change.

    Trump is a man who makes things happen. For every person who steps up and says- "Will you show me how you do that?" There will be a hundred or more complaining and criticizing.... all people who will not do for themselves.

    It's sad- but trying to help such people only makes matters worse.

    Trump’s broadest appeal is to people to whom things happen, and to. People who don’t know thing are happening.

    Trump’s record is not one of building. It’s one of destruction.

    ‘His business failure are spectacular. Banks wouldn’t lend to him. He wrecked an airline, cheated his partners in the Grand Hyatt deal, and he managed to fail spectacularly in an industry where “the house always wins”.

    His presidency was a carnival barker’s delight.

    ‘And when it came time to lead Americans in a crisis, all he oiled do was fellow that he ‘took no responsibility whatsoever’.

    I really don’t understand why any “people who make things happen” would even begin to respect a snowflake like Trump, who plays the victim card practically every time he opens his mouth. I do realize why many in the other groups do. They think they’re entitled, filled with resentments of the sort you describe.

    He may have BSed his way to the White House, but his Presidency was a failure, and he was the force behind a coup attempt.

    I don’t know who would mistake that for “making things happen”. I realize that many people do.

    You are just an echo of the democrat propaganda.

    Bankruptcies: Fact- 50% of new businesses fail within 5 years. Trump has had 6 businesses go bankrupt. However, he has about 600 business entities.... making the real track record quite successful. Further, the largest of those bankruptcies (Trump casino in Atlantic City NJ) was one of about a half-dozen casino failures all at the same time, the result in a huge drop in gambler traffic from Pennsylvania- that was lost when Pennsylvania decided to go into the casino business for itself. Not in Trump's control.

    The accusations of crimes- are so heavily burdened with the obvious taint of political persecution, that you would have to have no moral compass to believe them. They seek to kill the messenger, because they can't beat the message. That should tell you what that they have no lower limit to what they will do. Apparently, you missed that.

    How does it “obviously” appear to be politically motivated?

    Were the frauds and closures of trump business prior to his election also “political persecution”?

    Let me guess, Democrats now have a Time Machine where they can go back to attack the dear master who has never done nothing wrong!

    Either that or he is a twice impeached, lying, bankrupt fraud who has conned his way though his entire life while bouncing between whore to prostitute and sneaking into women’s dressing rooms. (All of this is easily proven with a simple search)

    Apparently, you somehow missed the rest of the post covering bankruptcies. You also overlooked the overwhelming evidence that Biden has sold influence for cash around the world for many years, or you just don't consider that offensive.

    Nobody in power (and most people not in power) have life histories that nobody can take issue with. But the question of qualification for office is the ability and integrity to DO that job- not if somebody has made claims to extort money from them in the past. Virtually all wealthy people have claims being made that are designed to extract money.

    Biden makes Trump look angelic, as well as himself grossly incompetent, and you pass on that.... to rag on Trump.
    When you have a double standard- you have no standards at all.

    You didn’t answer my question.

    Stay on track — this isn’t about Biden.

    Here, let me repost it for you — I will omit any rants going forward so if that’s all you have it would be best if you didn’t even bother to muster up a response.

    Were the frauds and closures of trump business prior to his election also “political persecution”?

    You prove that daily

    He’s been persecuted his whole life! He’s overcome his upbringing as a poor orange child and became super rich!

    Can we get back to Eric Trump and what a feckless waste of space he is?

    And I didn't say he did. He contributed to it in small ways. No one entity built the skyline- but in all walks of life, the doers that make things happen are vastly outnumbered by the whiners, who make nothing happen except misery.

    They don't consider that messing up- they consider that righteous. It's how they think.

    He has a few buildings, some were already built, and his Casinos in AC went bankrupt in the 90's, they always lost money. His business acumen is in his ability to market himself, which he did in the 80's and his TV show, after that, he has nothing to show.

    Jr's statement is completely wrong, and again, Trump did this to himself.

    Not just women but girls. He walked right into the dressing room at the Miss Teen USA pageant where girls as young as 13 were in partial stages of dress.
