A bit rich coming from a supporter of The King of Sleaze himself Donald Trump isn't it? No one, but no one is more sleazy than El Trumpo.

I have no clue what you are talking about. Trump has always played by the rules. In fact I can give you several examples where Trump has done some pretty amazing and generous things without ever taking credit for it. For example, one guy stopped and helped Trump change a tire, so Trump anonymously paid off the guys mortgage. Not to mention the support he has given to various charities over the years including our disabled veterans. And don't even get me started on his professional accomplishments, they rival those of the most successful human beings in history. His success is not built off a single internet idea. No his is built from a long series of successful business ventures leaving incredible land marks all over the world. But of course non of that means anything to you when it's compared to a politician whos only claim to fame are words.

“...For example, one guy stopped and helped Trump change a tire, so Trump anonymously paid off the guy’s mortgage.”

Ummm.....so you’re saying Trump ***anonymously***paid off some guy’s mortgage? Then how, pray tell, would you ( or ‘”the guy” ) know who did it, if indeed the deed were done?
More to the point, what’s “the guy’s” name? Where is he? ( Oh, right. “The guy” is anonymous too, because Trump swore him to secrecy. Because Trump is a modest, humble fellow, who doesn’t want any public praise for his generosity!) But surely there’s other proof? Where’s the video? Where’s the copy of the cancelled check with ‘Anonymous’ signed on the signature line? Or was it paid in cash by a mysterious stranger in sunglasses who works for Trump and is sworn to secrecy?
Do you even hear yourself?

This long-discredited urban legend, starring differing benevolent billionaires including Rockefeller and Howard Hughes and featuring slight variations in the story, has resurfaced recently in several versions involving Trump.
Trump may have floated the story himself.
One version was flat tire, another was mechanical difficulty, some versions feature Trump’s chauffeur, others vaguely imply it was Trump’s driver’s night off, so Trump was alone, in the middle of nowhere—but apparently he had no On-Star, no AAA, no car phone, nothing. In still another version, it was a widow facing foreclosure instead of “some guy.”

People who float these stories, or believe them, are putting their stock in magical thinking. Maybe one day they’ll have a chance meetup with their idol, (and it’s really the money, not the man, that is the object of their idolatry) and they’re hoping perhaps they, too, can change his tire, or shine his shoes, and he’ll be sooooo grateful for this rare, refreshing encounter with the hoi polloi, that he’ll hand over ridiculous amounts of cash to them, too, just like they heard he did for “some guy.”
