We have seen the future, and it sucks.

The Real Trump

7th December 2016

A Reddit that asked people who had met Trump before he ran for President what he was ‘really’ like.

A typical comment:

I went to school with his daughter Tiffany so I had a few interactions with the Donald and all were positive. The one anecdote that I’ll share is from the school plays. Tiffany was involved in the school theatre program and so was my brother so I was usually helping out as an usher for the plays. Donald attended all the plays that were put on despite living across the country from our school in LA. The thing that was most impressive was how here arrived to the plays, he was always late, just 1 minute late. He’d arrive and take his seat in the rear just after the house lights went down so he didn’t draw any attention away from the kids. He’d slip out as quietly as he’d arrived, when he was at the school his focus was 100% on his daughter and not himself. Despite living in a pretty solid liberal area most people from that school admit that’s it kind of hard to square our experiences with him up with the media’s portrayal of him as a brash, egotistical idiot.

    It’s said that even Hitler liked puppies. He was still an evil asshole, notwithstanding.

    But he wasn’t uniformly pleasant, polite, and friendly to everybody he met. Nor are you, so Trump beats the both of you.

    Trump is “uniformly pleasant, polite, and friendly”? Evidently you didn’t watch the campaign, where he was anything but. But then your capacity to deny reality is well-known and well-documented.
