It makes me want to vomit, but Trump will probably win. His faults as a human being are numerous and grave, but his rat cunning is something else. And he doesn't care what he destroys along the way.
I watched some 30/30 docos on Kayo (when I had it). There were heaps of very interesting stories on there, so good that it didn't matter if i was a fan of the sport or knew the athlete at all, just fascinating stuff to watch. Anyway, one of them was about the USFL, a short lived spring alternative to the NFL (that plays in 'the fall'). Long story short - Trump tried to buy an NFL team but couldn't, so bought a USFL team. The USFL had carved out a nice niche and was doing well, but Trump wasn't happy being in the spring, it had to be in the fall coz that was the bigger stage. He stooged enough of the other teams in the USFL to agree they should change to play in the fall and sue the NFL for being a monopoly in the fall comp. He won the case, and was awarded a dollar, coz the case couldn't prove they'd actually lost anything anyway at that stage, coz they played in the spring so hadn't actually been disadvantaged... Anyway - he bankrupted the USFL, and destroyed the entire comp, and everyone in its livelihood. His final words were something along the lines of 'it was a crap comp anyway, the fall comp is all that matters, and if it can't be in the fall comp, then stuff it'. He's an A grade, self centred, selfish, butthole. The kind of kid that would break your toy just so you couldn't enjoy it.
