   Those of us like me who grew up in the #NewYork area knew #Trump was a fucking sleazebag in the 1980s

   But the #justice system let him slide time and again, eyes glazed over

   #Punitive force feeds the #crime you intend to stop- for low grade #crimes by the #poor (that #bigotry always demands heavy #punishment for)

   But #narcissism #amorality #plutocracy, plotting great #malice, persistently: utterly different

   They are always obvious as hell for years, decades

   They can be stopped early

   Must be

     the guy who ghostwrote "The Art of the Deal", Tony Schwartz, confirmed it was all lies and #Trump was a massive piece of shit

     “I feel a deep sense of remorse that I contributed to presenting Trump in a way that brought him wider attention and made him more appealing than he is... I genuinely believe that if Trump wins and gets the nuclear codes there is an excellent possibility it will lead to the end of civilization”

     everyone knew

     everyone. knew.

     @humanhorseshoes

     remember Biff Tannen the blonde bully in #BacktotheFuture?

     the writer based him on Donald #Trump

     hilarious

     "In the second film, which was celebrated this week as part of Back to the Future day, Tannen becomes a successful businessman who opens a 27-story casino and, in an oddly prescient touch, uses his money to influence US politics."

     many many Americans knew 100% what a piece of shit Trump was, and is. For decades. Our justice system failed us
