The daredevil climber who attempted to scale Trump Tower on Wednesday is a 20-year-old man who traveled to Manhattan from Virginia and staged his stunt in the hopes of winning a meeting with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, police said...
He was taken to Bellevue hospital in Manhattan for a psychiatric evaluation, and it was not yet clear what charges he might face for his high-rise high jinks....

he climber’s ascent ended abruptly around 7 p.m., when emergency responders were able to yank him in through a 21st-floor window of the glass skyscraper after a harrowing two-hour negotiation. He had been hoisting himself slowly up the glass facade using giant, hand-held suction cups...

Trump had better get his Property Management folks to clean those Brass Lights. They are filthy.He is reputedly such a stickler. I'd say "heads will roll", but I guess I really can't say that any more.

the guy kept moving sideways and up and down, trying to evade the police as they broke through ventilation ducts to try to get to him. Wow, add all those repairs to the already massive costs caused by this stunt.

There are just too many lawyers nowadays. Even if his family disavowed him and didn’t want to sue if he went splat, some opportunist cousin would come out of the woodwork and get a lawyer. It’s Trump, you know. Being him is like being an elephant constantly battling red ants.
