I live in New York. New York City is Donald Trump's home town, and we've been watching him smear himself across the news since the 1980s.
Donald Trump lost New York City by 90% in 2016 and 2020, and people were literally dancing in the streets when he lost in 2020.

If a man is despised by his hometown, you'd think that would be a huge red flag for voters. Also the fact that a bunch of southern rednecks who despise city people and northerners, got behind a Manhattan real estate developer, and believe he's one of them.
Apparently, being hated in New York was a big green flag for many of his voters.
There are no red flags on the road towards fascism. It makes more sense when you realize his supporters love that he is hated.
Why can’t they get it through their worm-eaten brains that he wants to be loved by the Manhattan elite and that, deep down, he loathes them?
This is purely rhetorical venting, pay no mind

He had a lottery where the winner got to have dinner at the White House with him.
No one ever won.
In the end, though, they all won... a free subscription to trumps newsletter!
The caravan from 2020 has resurfaced and is going to be at our door step in November! Watch out!
Spy magazine back in the late '80s and early '90s was basically an NYC magazine and they used to mercilessly rip on Trump. Every year they did a "Top 10 Worst People, Places or Things" list and he was always on it. One year, the only mitigating factors in his favor were his offer to pay for the funeral of a child killed by a bear (which he probably reneged on) and the fact that he didn't run for office.
They also did a prank once where they sent checks for tiny amounts to millionaires to see who would cash them. Trump survived the first round by cashing a check (that he actually hand-endorsed) for something like $1.30, and he was one of two recipients to cash the last round of checks for 13 cents. Dude has been the exact same bit of trash for his entire life.
Spy Magazine were the ones who called him a 'short fingered vulgarian.'
His response was to claim his hands were normal sized.
