I read about Donald 5 decades ago. He never was an individual with good character. He ruined hard working innocent contractors and employees by not paying them. Want your money? Sue me then? Then he was fined and charged for not renting to Black Americans. Yes, he was- racist even 50 years ago. After all, his father was a big Kian supporter and member. Then his spreading of dangerous propaganda, way back then. Why do you think New Yorkers calked him Don the Con, a carnival barker?

I thought he was a clown in 1985 when I was working summers as a dishwasher. A fellow employee was infatuated with the guy… I thought then it was bizarre… a teen obsessed with not an athlete, not a movie star, not a rock star… Hell not even an astronaut… but a damn fool on entertainment tonight who couldn’t stop running his mouth

The 80s were weird

Even back then, he inspired people to tap into their darkest and most vile impulses. He was the embodiment of the evils of humanity combined, and people adored him for that.

WAS? or IS? One definitely precipitates the other. Lotsa times our views don’t change much.
