So now Wollman rink is fine and the Presidency of the United States is a festering mess.
I guess now both are on thin ice.

He personifies everything that is wrong with this country.
The man has his uses; for example exiting the Paris Climate Accords/shakedown stage right.

Speaking of DT and the 1990's just read that the Plaza Hotel is up for sale; *again*.


DT had a golden opportunity with the Plaza, and promptly proceeded to screw things up which in the end cost him the place.

I feel the same way about the Kardashians and every "Real Housewife of wherever".

Instead, the White House is a festering mess.

I come from the camp of a grilled cheese sandwich as president is better than Hillary, so I personally don't care how bad Trump does or does not perform. We stole your SCOTUS seat. That's more important than anything else in the end. Gorsuch lasts much longer than Trump. Should the wrinkled up biddy die, we own the court for decades to come.

Under the Wicks Law an exception had to be made to let Trump do that. Without contractors construction is a festering mess. It is taking four or five years to redo some exits where the FDR Drive and the Harlem River Drive meet. By all accounts Trump did a good job there. Some of his other works such as Trump Steaks and Trump University maybe not so good.
