Various Impressions

Anne, in touch with middle America
“I looked for the competencies of the man.

What saddens me the most is that people don’t practice what they preach.

Thomas, Technician
My first impression was years before he became famous on the Apprentice. I picked up “The Art of the Deal” (his ghostwritten book) at the library on a whim. The first few chapters were OK but it got repetitive. I loved the Apprentice and I wish he had stayed there. He had some talent in that role.

Michael, First I listen, then I decide for myself.
I’ve never been impressed, even before his was president. And I blame the media for creating him. They gave him a lot of attention and never condemned him while encouraging his odd behaviors.
Still to be on point as long as I have been aware of him I was not impressed.

Marie, Author
Frankly, I never paid much attention to him. I understood he liked attention and thought rather highly of himself. He never struck me as particularly intelligent.

I knew he was behind the birther nonsense and figured him for a racist and an idiot, screaming for the spotlight. Why would anyone believe his bullcrap? Oh, yeah…

I’m hard-pressed to think of a wise or compassionate decision the old blowhard has made during his presidency. But one thing is certain: regardless of what he says or to whom, his presidency has served only to benefit Trump. I can only hope the next president is an adult and the next administration is capable one and will work to undo the harm this bastard is busy inflicting.

Gordon, Attorney
My first impression of him was in the ‘80’s. He was on “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous”. I concluded then that he was a show off, a braggart, and a bullshit artist. I called him”Don the Con” back then and he’s done nothing to rehabilitate himself in the intervening decades.

I, for one, am LESS impressed with the trumpster in the dumpster than any or all of the above.
