This is my personal favorite Trump story. At the time he was putting up his Tower, Jackie Kennedy was fighting to preserve New York landmarks like Grand Central Station. Jackie was beloved by the entire country and was the absolute queen of high society. The building where Trump wanted to build was considered one of the most beautiful on 5th Avenue. Trump promised to preserve the building’s façade, then demolished it. His own architect told him not to do it, but he knew better. Not the worst thing he ever did, but just mindbogglingly arrogant and stupid.
I’m a native New Yorker. Donald was a fixture in the local media for decades before he broke into national fame.
I’ve never heard a single story where he doesn’t come off as a petulant loser with an endless well of wantiness.
At least you could say Nixon had a strong work ethic; that Reagan really could give a speech; that Bush Jr. loved his family. Hitler liked dogs. You can’t even say Trump likes his pets.
It may not be the worst thing he ever did, but it’s a perfect display of how petty and selfish he is. People asked him not to do something, and because he thinks those people are beneath him, he went and did it for no reason other than to show them that he can do whatever he wants.

I prefer the Mash’d Tater Head story, personally. Only victim is him.

You can say he really, REALLY loves his daughter, tho…

The Lanisters and Targaryens give me less ick.
