The art of the deal teaches you to accept any and all bribes no matter how small because accurate representation matters dor all businesses. All businesses matter and if you don't agree you are anti capitalist and basically a traitor communist.

No, It's still criminal to threaten to murder someone. And, it should remain illegal.

When he said drain the swamp, he meant into the whitehouse, not out of it. When he said make America great again he meant like the great depression.
