No, his political affiliation may have changed but he’s always been sleazy and dishonest.

Sorry to hear you can’t sea with that. Honesty counts for me. For people who are poor and tell their story, people who work hard and for people who inherited it all, all fine with me and I favor people who can dea with people who don’t lie and accept if they are wealthy or poor.

Trump haters never want to hear and see how much Trump and his family have done for charity. Thousand times more than Obama but the Trump haters only love Obama and hate Trump for whatever reason they can’t even explain.

How can anyone hate a person who has given so much to other people.

I considered him a gaudy reality tv show celeb, but in the world of tacky tv, it works.

I'll bet your a clock puncher? So you know nothing about business and then has the audacity to think you know it all. You can't know anything unless you at least try to start a business. You can't succeed unless you try and most times it fails. A know it all that never tried yet knows everything even though he never even tried.

Trump was just another celebrity. And just like the media they go where they'll make money. Celebrities are all egotistical including Obama, the celebrity president. I laugh that people would rather have a smooth talker who doesn't do anything good like Obama than someone who will fight for Americans.

No wonder people are so screwed up and struggling. They don't get it.

Not a clock puncher. I run my own business and even if I didn’t, that doesn’t change the fact that Trump is a con, cheater and liar in his business dealings.

When in business are you in business to succeed to to help your competition? Anyone in business knows that most businesses fail, some even after successes.
Yes, I have assisted many people in starting businesses.

Never watched the show because I had already seen it - lived near Atlantic City when he turned the place into a Ghost Town and ripped off everyone he came in contact with.

Not a human.

Started a bunch of businesses in my time. Most made it, some didn't as much...never ripped a single person or investor off, never defaulted on a loan, etc.

These were "only" multi-million dollar businesses, but still...it's a matter of personal ethics and morality.

I sold two of my best businesses...in fact, three of them...to people I would SWEAR would pay me back every penny no matter what happened to them.

That is how normal and honest business people work all over the world.

My last venture was a "failure". I obtained a patent, developed products and spent a couple hundred grand. The products were great, I just didn't have the energy or years to devote to it. So I sold it for a few dollars and took my losses of years of hard work.

Didn't bring anyone down with me.

You liked him as an entertainer playing a part?

I think one big problem is that Americans have a tough time separating reality from fantasy. Reality TV, in the minds of some, is actual real (as opposed to being totally staged)....

Yeah, those naked people surviving on an island somewhere....don't have 40 person support and camera and producing crew hovering above them at each moment!
