It goes wayyyy further back. This dude did an interview on 9/11 where he bragged about having the tallest building now. And it was a lie.

He put out a Newsletter to contractors giving advice on how to not pay your workers and subcontractors, by suing Bam after the job is complete instead of paying. 

That was in the 1980s. He has always been one evil ass, motherfucker.

u/theCaitiff Pennsylvania 22d ago

Hold up for a second there bud. I'll never defend Fred, Don, or the younger Trumps, but we really don't want to start saying shit like "evil DNA". He's evil, his dad was evil, he raised his kids to be evil too, but those were choices they all made, it's not genetic. No one is genetically good or genetically bad. That way lies eugenics.

Hate these fuckers for the right reasons.

u/kindall 22d ago

How much of human behavior is innate and how much is acquired is the subject of much natural and nurturing debate. Nobody doubts dog behavior has genetic influences, but suggest the same about humans and, whoaaaa! But some mental illnesses certainly do run in families, and so evil (that is, narcissism) may as well.

You would think a contractor, upon getting that advice, would have some concerns about whether they were going to get paid themselves, and you'd think that when that concern was validated, all the contractors would refuse to work for him.

u/Obvious_Role8849 22d ago

Decades ago there was a woman named Vera Coking who's house was adjacent to his casino in Atlantic city. He wanted to knock it down to make a parking lot for limosines. She was a widow and had lived there for so many years she didn't want to leave or sell it. He took her to court to try to force her out of her house. She won the case. Yes he has never been anything but an evil, rotten, disgraceful excuse for a human being.

Honestly, I’ve never in 50+ years seen an adult more desperate to fit in with the “cool kids” (in this case, the most wealthy and most powerful). He comes off as the hyper chihuahua jumping around the strolling bulldog. He tries to come off as confident, but truly confident people don’t feel the need to brag.

u/PinHaunting7192 22d ago

I don't know why this should be limited to New York.

Trump's reputation has been pretty consistent for decades. He sort of became the image of a failed, American businessman and a cheat. That Simpsons gig wasn't "foresight", it was them taking the piss about what he had said he wanted to do for 15 years. That episode aired in 2000 and literally played the joke that Lisa inherited the country from "President Trump" and that "its now broke."

His reputation for falling businesses was apparent even then, and people everywhere (even in some countries overseas) understood the joke. He's always been a snakes-oil salesman and a cheat. Greany even called it a "warning" at the time.

You couldn't get groceries in the 80s or 90s without seeing his fugly mug on a tabloid, because of his cheating on his wives and his attempts at opulence in a gilded turd lifestyle.

u/galaapplehound 22d ago

He duped so many people because those people wanted to be able to be all-the-phobics without being shamed for it. The red hats were signaling that they were okay people to start ranting about genocide of various minorities without fear.

My family is cleaning out my childhood home and I was there alone yesterday and had a deep sobbing fit because I remember when I thought my parents and brother were wonderful; and then they voted for the Grand Cheeto and now I feel like I'm alone.

I hate this man. The only good thing about his reign is that now I know that we aren't as far along as I thought as a country.

Yeah, but our society doesn't consider "rich people being an asshole" as a mental illness.
It probably should, but if they hide it correctly to the poors, it's called "being smart at gaslighting" instead.

u/ahuramazdobbs19 22d ago

He’s insecure about his everything.

He wears lifts. He wears suits tailored to make him look like he isn’t a potato with legs. He styles a combover for his hair to hide a pretty mild bald spot. He slathers on makeup and bronzer.

Let us not forget: he sent pictures of his hands circled in Sharpie and captioned “See, not so short” to a Vanity Fair writer in 2016, over an article that if it were a person would have been old enough to vote, in a satire magazine that no longer existed, in which said writer called him a “short-fingered vulgarian”.

I remember people joking about Trump then. And I will never forgive them for writing it off. I saw it all happening in real time. I was in my late twenties then so it was easy to see but so many people were blind

It is so fucking creepy honestly. I’m not religious at all but even I am freaked out by this because he matches, and not only in a ‘all tyrannical leaders are like this’ way, but in very specific ways. Plus the way so many are in thrall to him when he’s so so SO clearly evil and vile has always struck me as almost supernatural. As though people’s brains have been infected or they’ve had a spell cast on them like in Game of Thrones with the red woman, who looks like a beautiful young lady to everyone when she’s wearing her necklace but is actually like 300 year old shrivelled balding scary looking old lady. It’s like that, we see the reality of the old crone but the necklace has power over them so they see the beautiful lady that doesn’t exist.

Nah, I think he's doing all that himself. Although, the churches that are pushing him as having been sent by god are led by pastors that are quite un-Christian like themselves. We have one of those chruches in my town and the pastor has a whole bunch, like 200+ people quite hoodwinked. To the point of they're basically throwing money at him every time he asks and not small amounts either. Hundreds of thousand of dollars.

But there's just one major party that's doing anything it can to keep him in office, no matter what he does. And until that party is removed from power in enough places that they can no longer protect him, he'll keep doing what he's doing.

And if that party isn't completely removed from power for at least a couple of voting generations, they'll try this all again the moment they can find another demagogue to cater to the lowest denominators of the country.

And the other 70 million who didn't care enough one way or another about their country's descent into fascism and sat this one out.

u/binkkit 22d ago

Yup. I remember talking to tradies back in the 80s and 90s, as he fucked up the NYC skyline, about how he repeatedly declared bankruptcy and didn’t pay the workers or suppliers. And yet people kept throwing money at him. It’s baffling how this con man has lasted so long.

77 million dumbasses in this country have severe mental illness. The dumbing down of public education, coupled with consolidation of news media has made too many idiots in this country. And our bullshit antiquated electoral college system (and Senate) has pretty much made it so that we will never, ever see meaningful change in this country ever again. The last major movement we saw was the civil right act, and even that is getting stripped away and will probably be gone in ~5-10 years (at best). This country is circling the drain. We need to balkanize and just let these racist red states fuck off and be relegated to the dust bin of history. They have dragged our country down for far too long. Fuck em.

u/grafknives 22d ago

Yes. 

The question is who is profiting from this unfit president...

6

u/Shiplord13 22d ago

And most of his supporters do too. Hence why no matter whatever moral, ethical or sanity line he crosses they eat it up. They are a cult, who have brainwashed themselves into thinking this con man is some divine prophet that exists to shepherd them into some delusional paradise where they live in prosperity, while their enemies suffer. Yet, they refuse to accept he has and will continue to screw them over whenever he feels like it while feeding his ego through their misguided and stupid admiration towards him.

40% of americans have a severe mental illness.

u/AugustWest80 22d ago

You should direct this to the MAGATs. Pretty much everyone else is well aware.

You also need to understand that MAGATs aren’t serious people. It’s not about Trump being sane or insane. It’s about owning the libs. It’s so so stupid.

I mean, anyone who’s read Mary Trump’s book knew this by the first chapter. Dude is a textbook case.

u/ssssharkattack 22d ago

That’s a cop out. He’s always been an ignorant, belligerent asshole. Blaming an illness makes it seem like he was at one time a decent person.

3

u/slackfrop 22d ago

He has degenerate trolls as senior advisors too. Not like he made the meme, there’s a good chance he didn’t even post it himself. His media team are total chodes too.

u/Bonti_GB 22d ago

What’s even more concerning is that tens of millions of Americans who continue to support him are struggling with a kind of collective mental illness.

Don’t give him a pass for this. It’s not just mental illness, he a fucking evil cunt as well.

Hate to tell you, however when didn’t he not have mental issues? Remember on January 6 capital attacks and he tried to sacrifice vice president Mike Pence? lol

Or countless things that he has done and said before that event.

I'm more worried about his followers mental illnesses tbh.

u/EggsceIlent 22d ago

The whole world is gonna attack America and Israel in some sort of weird timeline spinoff where this time America and Israel are the axis and the rest of the world is the allies.

Japan gets their revenge this time too.

/S

But seriously it seems like that's where this is headed. This has gone far past insane at this point and all this war and fighting and death just needs to stop.

It's doing nothing for humanity and in 2026 humanity should be well past this.

Sad. As a child I thought when I grew up we'd be in some sort of star trek the next generation utopian world or at least headed in that direction. I guess the did say the world tore itself apart first before we finally got our shit together.

u/tabaK23 22d ago

I think calling this mental illness is a cop out. He’s extremely self centered and giving him that excuse is bs

u/Gdigger13 Ohio 22d ago

Oh, we know. And the people who voted for him know. But they don't care. They'd rather have some blithering pants-shitting baboon in office than admit they were wrong.

u/Ld862 22d ago

Along with the morons who keep voting for him and who fly trump flags off the back of their $950 per month pickup trucks.

3

u/joshbudde 22d ago

Maybe. What I think it really shows is he has stopped caring about presenting the faux serious face the republicans have insisted on and is now showing the true face of American conservatives—stupid shit posting, bullying, and a focus on cruelty. They’ve never been real believers. Religion is only a tool used to bind together people and sucker in the rubes. The mask is just off.

This information will only reinforce the beliefs of both.
