He doesn't look like Trump. But his personality?
"We are going to have the best product that ever existed," Levine exclaimed Friday while discussing an innovative alternative to the hazardous chemical styrene that his company is developing.
The Trump-ness of the comment isn't surprising. As a teenager in the early 1960s, Levine spent a semester as Trump's roommate at the New York Military Academy, an expensive boarding school along the Hudson River.
And Levine is quick to explain that both his and Trump's attitudes were molded there.
"The school taught you how to be a leader," the lifelong Paterson resident said. "It taught you: Show me a sore loser, and I'll show you a loser."
That's why, Levine said, he fully understands Trump's mindset — a mix of grandiose confidence and bulldogish aggression that has upended the crowded GOP race and helped Trump grab an unexpected lead in the polls.
"I understand it more than you can ever perceive," Levine said. "He is so mentally strong."

Wow Donald’s military school roommate was found and interviewed. Can’t say much for the POS in the White Hut.
But by golly, when it is Trump, they are falling all over themselves trying, most likely, to find a person who will bad mouth him.
LOL
I think it makes Trump look good. TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT !!!!!
Jefferson Sessions as Vice President
Department of State, (return INS.) – John Bolton
Department of Justice - Trey Gowdy (Suggested by The Donald)
Department of Treasury, (includes former Homeland Security, (Customs) – Carl Icahn (Offered and Accepted)
Department of War, (change the name back, include VA function.) – Gen. James Mattis
Department of Interior, (includes legitimate functions only of former Transportation, Homeland Security (Border Patrol,) and Energy Departments) – Gov. Palin
Department of Labor and Commerce – ELIMINATE
Department of Health and Human Services - ELIMINATE
Department of Homeland Security – ELIMINATE
Department of Education - ELIMINATE
Department of Energy – ELIMINATE
Department of Housing and Urban Development – ELIMINATE
Department of Veterans Affairs - ELIMINATE
Department of Agriculture – ELIMINATE
Department of Transportation - ELIMINATE
This proposed model has the President directly managing six subordinates which is optimal.
In non-cabinet level jobs
Sheriff Clarke should be FBI Director
Michelle Bachman as IRS Commissioner under Secretary Carl Icahn in Treasury
Admiral James A. “Ace” Lyons as Secretary of The Navy.
LTC Allen West as Secretary of The Army
Lynnette “Diamond” Hardaway and Rochelle “Silk” Richardson would be great as President Trumps Co-Press Secretaries.
I saw an old video from the eighties drug up on YouTube with some people claiming that any black employees at a Trump casino had to disappear before Trump and wife visited because they were racists.
Bernie Mac had a funny bit about boarding school.
Would that NYMA had better taught the US Constitution.
I’m assuming that chapel/synagogue attendance was then mandatory. One would suspect he wasn’t paying much attention there either.
Other than that, more power to him.
Because most of the ones that went to school with the turd are either scared or dead!
McCain went to the Naval Academy. He doesn’t seem to know the Constitution either. I don’t know if he went to chapel.
Dr. Carson acknowledged that it's not appropriate to question one's faith. FWIW, there are many stories about Trump's charity and kindness to those in need. Look at his crusade to help Veterans as an example.
I don't understand this hating on Trump. He's waking the nation up and making people feel hopeful and part of it.
THAT takes guts and determination!
Fire everyone who the usurper appointed. Eliminate all the czar departments.
Pieces of.puzzle falling in place. America will see what a completely vetted candidate looks like. How refreshing!
Trump has roommates that attest to his a.) having actually attended said school and, b.) to his education’s (great) influence, on the person he is today.
Thanks for the ping!
The interview actually makes Trump look good. His fiorina comment is immature and a school boy type comment... not good.
I’d still rather vote for Trump than anyone though.
Has the MSM showcased any of Barry Soetoro’s roommates?
