Rolling Stone's New Article on Trump
I love Rolling Stone. This article is gonna be in the May 26 issue and in the online archive tomorrow. Here's some greatest hits from the CNN (excerpts? copy of the article?):


"We sell them at Macy's. They sell great. Hey -- I have the number-one-selling tie in the country. What color tie do you like? Your tie looks like shit. Do you want a tie? It's not a bribe. They're nothing. I sell shirts, PVH, Phillips-Van Heusen. Cuff links."


"Trump cuff links!" he shouts. "They're magnificent! Everybody's buying them! If I said I got them at Harry Winston, for $100,000, you'd believe it! Forty-nine dollars at Macy's! Macy's doesn't even want to carry other brands! We blow them out!"


As he said in his 2007 book, "Think BIG and Kick Ass in Business and Life," "I figured it was the bank's problem, not mine. What the hell did I care? I actually told one bank, 'I told you you shouldn't have loaned me that money. I told you the goddamn deal was no good.'"
Or, as he casually says today, "I play with the bankruptcy."

1. "I play with the bankruptcy."Jeezuz. My ex and I had to declare several years ago;
I had to have heart surgery and it wasn't until later we found out that HIS EMPLOYER HAD NOT BEEN PAYING THE PREMIUMS. Hence, no insurance and it was money a young couple with a toddler just didn't have.

I really could not have thought I could revile him any more. I was mistaken.Someday, I want to see the bastard get his comeuppance.

2. I have fun with the syntax
I have a great relationship with the blacks

I play with the bankruptcy

Also, I'm sorry to hear about your prior situation. These sorts of things would be impossible in a single-payer system.
