I wonder how many crooked rich people have taken advantage of Trump.

All you have to do is praise Trump, pretend you like him, pretend you are loyal and you are in. He will listen to you. He will give you what you want, Trump may be one of the most easily conned fools in our country.

A sort of unsuccessful Bernie Madoff. He's dead now (and none of us stockholders went to jail for it).

One day a guy called him, interested in buying the company. The CEO became convinced the guy was a multi-billionaire. The CEO pulled out all the stops and spent over $120,000 giving this visitor the Big Tour.

The guy offered to buy the company for $100,000. Of course by the time the CEO told us about the offer, the number had trumped to $20 million.
