When he was a businessman/property developer. AC casino owner and a TV reality host?
I first heard about Donnie Divot back around 1980, and he was not at all well thought of in New York even then. He was viewed as coarse, boorish, and a social climber who couldn't get invited into the top circles. That is when he invented John Barron to "leak" news stories about himself to the gossip mags.
He's alway been nothing but an ill-tempered, emphatically ignorant blowhard.
I'm in the no I never liked him crowd. There's something about him that made me not to be able to trust him. I remember when he brought his girlfriend Marla Maples along on a family vacation and brags about it on the Howard Stern show. "Donald joked about putting Ivana and Marla in a boxing ring for a celebrity fight. Donald called the prospect of Marla and Ivana getting in the boxing ring an interesting fight that he would likely see in person." Look up the many interviews about Trump on Howard Stern.
Anyone who would do something that low and despicable to his wife is just rick low life in my eyes and not of fit character to run our country. I don't trust him, and with the many lies coming out of this presidency it is patently clear that he is all about Donal first. Where does his loyalty fit into our country? I'm sure Mueller has a good idea.
No, I found him crass, braggy, tacky, a bully and a fake business man trying desperately to get recognition.
It's one thing to be "tacky", crass, and aggressive on an individual or a business scale, but quite another to be motivated primarily by self on a national/international scale. If it makes HIM look good in his own eyes, it's acceptable. Now he's gotten the chance to be a big player on the biggest stage. As long as he gets his strokes, all is well. This time unfortunately, an entire nation gets to go along for the ride.
I had no issues whatsoever with Donald Trump the celebrity. Everybody knows that he was born into wealth and used his dad's money to create his own wealth. That's fine, we all hope to be able to do that for our kids.
I always knew Trump was kind of a jerk, it's his schtick. He's an outspoken, loud-mouthed, arrogant businessman. And there are plenty of people like him in this world, so again, I had no issue with him.
But to think he is qualified to run this country is absurd. I honestly don't think Trump truly cares about making a difference or wants to help people, he just wanted to be POTUS to say that he was POTUS. This is all about him, not us, the American people.
And the way Trump lied and conned his way into the Oval Office by lying and deceiving millions of low-IQ voters, just telling them what he wanted to hear. I actually applaud Trump for exploiting the stupid, he was very good on the campaign trail. He knew what got people riled up, and he fed them the red meat they craved. He really is a good salesman.
I found his antics bizarre on the Apprentice. If you are interested in his character, watch the episodes. The things that stood out to me were his sexism, overall perviness, and the fact that he didn't listen, cut people off, and made rash decisions.
He has always fit the stereotype of the "ugly American."

Never liked him. Didn't vote for him. However, if a do-over of the 2016 presidential election were held today, I would vote for Trump over Clinton. The Democrat's post-election behavior has been unbelievably childish and hate filled. I've never seen a group as unashamedly racist, sexist, and hateful as the Dem's current "leadership". I wouldn't trust a Democrat to wash my car, much less run the country.
He was an obnoxious drip then and remains one today. He’s always been a BS artist.
