"Having lived in NYC and known Trump as the page 6 gossip fodder buffoon who was repeatedly bankrupt and renowned for not paying his bills, I was shocked that people could even contemplate voting for him for dog catcher.

I blame the inability of people to understand the difference between a character played in the grade B Apprentice Reality TV show and a real person."
