To: who knows what evil?
Actually, the comics mined the Trump well quite a bit during the mid-80's.

A lot of villainous businessmen had some Trump-like characteristics.

From 1989:

DC has been horrific, distorting the charaters. Lex Luthor was VERY well established as a classic bald mad-scientist type (though he is introduced AFTER the most wicked of evil Mad Scientists ... Dr. Sivana). The classic Luthor wore a lab coat or street clothes. Later they gave him the fancy villain uniform and later still made him an evil businessman (about as original as a demented Frank Capra/Charles Dickens villain).

D.C. also bought the rights to the Captain Marvel character that they had sued out of existence, but forgot to buy the name before Marvel Comics. With the Captain Marvel character they got Dr. Sivana, and they did the SAME thing, turning him into an evil businessman. HELLoooo ... he is a scientific DOCTOR.

REAL Lex Luthor:


REAL Dr. Sivana:

DC Corruption of Dr. Sivana
