People, the only reason that Donald Trump is famous is because of his own vanity.
It is the ONLY reason. The only reason.
There are about 38 dozen billionaires in the United States, and up to 20 times richer than Donald Trump, including several real estate moguls who left Donald Trump in the dust long ago -- the best of them, at the same game and wheeling the same "art of the deal," is worth four times more than Donald Trump. Yet you have never heard of him.
In fact, you have never heard of the vast majority of the other 38 dozen billionaire/entrepreneurs in America.
It's as if third-rate billionaire Trump thought to himself, "What's the point of being a billionaire if you're not famous?" And over the course of about ten years, he deliberately made himself a celebrity household word through marketing, television, and media promotion.
The only reason Donald Trump is famous is because of his own vanity.
That is a crappy quality in an American president. Vote for it at your own risk and with your eyes wide open, and be ready for some serious buyer's remorse if he wins.
I hope Trump loses the primary and actually keeps his word not to run third party. But I don't think his word is worth spit.
