I said I was familiar with his abilities, and he had shortcomings. To be honest, I dont think hes the best we can have, I said. Id like to see him either come up to speed, where he can help me a lot more, or maybe theres something else he can do.
Instantly, Donald was enthused. Yeah, I never liked the guy. I dont think he knows what the fuck hes doing. My accountants in New York are always complaining about him. Hes not responsive. And it isnt funny. Ive got black accountants at Trump Castle and at Trump Plaza. Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day. Those are the kind of people I want counting my money. Nobody else.
I couldnt believe I was hearing this. But Donald went on, Besides that, Ive got to tell you something else. I think that the guy is lazy. And its probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is. I believe that. Its not anything they can control .?.?. Dont you agree? He looked at me straight in the eye and waited for my reply.
Donald, you really shouldnt say things like that to me or anybody else, I said. That is not the kind of image you want to project. We shouldnt even be having this conversation, even if its the way you feel.
Yeah, youre right, he said. If anybody ever heard me say that .?.?. holy shit .?.?. Id be in a lot of trouble. But I have to tell you, thats the way I feel.

(51,672 posts)I emailed her and asked her if the French hate us. She said, "No, they feel sorry for us and hate him". That made me feel somewhat better. I had to leave the US in 2004-5 for my own sanity due to Bush and one of the places I chose to live for a little while was Nice, France. I thought they would hate me due to "Freedom Fries Bush" and brought a copy of Michael Moore's book "Dude, Where's My Country?" to read a in public. The French were very sage and had the philosophy that older countries have..."good leaders and bad leaders come and go and this too shall pass".

(51,672 posts)I am even more embarrassed to be an American now than I was during the Bush heyday. We are a country of arrogant, entitled idiots who are racist misogynists and incorporate religion and guns into our politics and think we can get away with anything since our country has big money and big guns instead of high morals. We suck now more than ever.
YES, I am really pissed off and should be. We all should be screaming it at the top of our lungs.
