I have probably written something on this before but it needs repeating. Donald Trump is a failure, pure and simple. I just do not get it and how he does it. A little history. When any of his teachers reported on Trump they all said, "dumb as a door". Every business he has ever been connected with has failed; gambling: went broke along with at least 6 bankruptcies. The trump school - not only a failure but a conviction for fraud. Claims of being rich - as far as I know not only wrong but, yet again, more fraud. This just goes on and on. There are, for instance, at least 6 books that cover just how he screwed somebody over. As a matter of fact there is a book about books about Trump, "The Lessons of Reading Every Book About Trump". I remember when Trump first ran. A newspaper started keeping track of Trump lies. They stopped keeping track at, if I remember correctly, at something like 8,000 lies! (and this was only when he ran for president the first time)

Trump is, basically, a man of lies and failures. As far as I can tell the only place he has actually had success was in politics and, hopefully he will eventually fail there too.

I wrote this so there is no confusion here. I have been following him for years and he has never let me down yet. I just thought there might be some who are not up to speed on Mr. Trump - hopefully this might help in that regard.

I am also really confused as to his popularity and success at politics. It makes no sense to me but, obviously, does makes sense to all of his followers. I remain confused. Its like a pack of people determined to commit suicide for absolutely no known reason.

One can only wonder?

He hasn't failed on being a cult leader!
His followers are all brainwashed just like cult followers. For a pathetic little man, he sure has had success in leading the gullible.


Good doesn't always win!

I have always thought that the iron bunch of them that adore and the same that followed him when he had his TV show. I'm not sure that it will take another show that the same group loved to move them right along. Then, again, who knows? I remain convinced that the TV Media invented, supported and gave trump what he needed and it was all free. Everybody else has to pay but media felt he was a money maker for them (and actually said that one right out loud)

i posted a question on https://www.quora.com/ asking what Trump's secret was. I received a LOT of answers. If half of them are right then its stuff nobody knew because, say the Democrats, apparently either didn't know or didn't care. Either way. I too never knew some of this stuff. If anybody is interested I think you can just search for Trump and find them.

Many replies and some pretty interesting............
