And don’t say “he’s better than Biden “, that’s too easy.  I’m amazed at how he still has this following. Sure some have peeled themselves away. But as a whole, some are still sticking by him, so what’s the “why” here.

Recent polling shows Biden Vs Trump as a dead heat, about 47% to 47%.  Where does that 47% come from? I’m guessing half of that is Trump’s base who will stick with him no matter what. The other half is voters who aren’t happy with Biden and/or concerned with his age.

What is it about trump? Forget you polling of this and that, it's doesn't say the "why".
Kudos to you for at least chiming in, the other pussies wouldn't know what to say without sounding really stupid.
I'd probably get the typical meathead response, "Well He's better then Biden"....in my best meathead voice

He's terrible at running anything and is dumb as hell.  But he has a great instinct for tapping in to the psyches of millions of angry, uninformed, gullible people telling them what they want to hear and then conning them out of their money and their votes.
There are far too many of them but fortunately (I hope) not enough to swing the next election.

…is very very simple. The American People just want someone who represents them and works in their interest. 99.9% of everyone in Washington doesn’t. All of them are on the take. Trump isn’t. That’s why the establishment hates him so much.

forgotten how well their families were doing financially under Trump.  Gas was cheap, interest rates were low, food prices were 30-50% lower than they are now, and taxes were lower.  Biden cannot claim that he measures up to Trump in ANY of these areas that are important to American families.  Other areas that are important to some are the disrespect Biden shows to the active military and veterans, his flooding of American cities with illegals, and his weaponizing of the DOJ.  But most importantly, as James Carville said, "It's the economy, stupid."  

ALL THIS!!!

Here’s the deal haters of Trump have become so conditioned that they can’t see past this hatred (that they love to dwell on) to the point that they will accept the worst behavior by a president in at least the last century if not the century before it. But the bottom line is the Obama presidency sucked. Trump comes along and lifts everyone out of that. Biden takes over and things don’t improve but drastically decline. So people think back to when things were pretty good and think? Huh? Trump for whatever his faults were? Wasn’t as bad as this asshat!

Do you ever remember seeing entire football stadiums full of people chanting “fuck you Obama?”

This is all koolaide regurgitated by a lefty who thinks he’s an intellectual but in fact is someone who can’t think for himself. The left wing press loves individuals like this.

CDL covers it very nicely below.

So ask yourself, why is it he's universally hated here in the city of his birth? The answer: we see through him. Whereas clowns like you just hear what you want to hear. So Trump tells you what you want to hear and you're stupid enough to think he's smart.
Lost, stupid and conned is no way to go through life, Son.
It doesn't take an "intellectual" to understand this. Just someone who's not blindingly stupid.
Buy a clue.

Name OF THE ARTICLE…  

More-new-yorkers-voted-for-donald-trump-in-2020-than-in-2016.

This would indicate that your statement that he’s  “Universally hated” is untrue. Sooooooo does that make you a? What’s the word? Or in this case words…FUCKING NO GOOD DIRTY L I A R! 🤬.  

PS better than being a word thief I guess. OH WAIT… you. Are one of those toooooooo

Here’s the deal Trump might be as flawed as you think he is but… the reality is better than Obama and way better than Biden.

It seems that Rep voter registration was up 18% in 2020 over 2016. Most of the increase was in the Latino and Bengali communities. Some might be 2nd or 3rd or more-th generation but some might be more recent NYC immigrants with less legacy knowledge of Trump and Trump's "Art of the Steal."
.
Republican George Santos also defeated an incumbent Dem on Long Island (technically not one of the 5 boroughs of NYC) but showed how campaigning on lies and deceit can very effectively distort an election outcome.  
.
I also grew up in NY and know very well what a lying buffoon Trump was and is. This is headline news that school kids and adults talked about. In the 1970s, "United States v. Fred C. Trump, Donald Trump, and Trump Management, Inc., 1:73-01529 | U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York" was headline news about the **blatant racism** of the Trumps in their FEDERALLY funded housing projects. And Trump was charged again when he failed to live up to the terms of the first settlement. ... Hiring ILLEGAL immigrants from Poland to do the construction work on Trump Tower and then NOT PAYING THEM!! BRAGGING about how great a builder he is, promising to build Trump Tower for $100 M but it ended up costing $200 M.

Trump Shuttle (NYC - Boston) - Headline news in NYC. Trump OVERPAID to buy the Eastern Airlines Shuttle, launched Trump Shit-tle in June 1989, completely bungled the business, never had a profitable month and was out of business in Sept 1990.  
.
Trump tried wheeling and dealing to develop Hudson Yards starting in 1985 but no one wanted to work with that lying, scheming, cheating, bastard moron, thus leaving it a desolate, undeveloped eyesore for decades. NYers hated Trump's broken promises. Trump was bought out by other groups and development finally began. ... Trump tried to have NY name an ice rink after him and Koch told him to fuck off.  
.
From the 1970s onward, year after year, law enforcement, Justice, city councils, and others would allow Trump to get away with all sorts of crimes and violations which only spurred him on.
.
(More recent examples: Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) who voted to acquit Trump during his first impeachment saying, 'I think he's learned his lesson.' (She voted to convict Trump during the second impeachment.))
.
I doubt very much that legacy NYers voted for Trump. I am guessing, without proof, that the shift was due to NEW New Yorkers who were brainwashed by Fox News and Trump's tweets.

WAAAAAAAaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!
Of course, Loooooser never uses extreme language to make a point.
What a complete hypocrite our Loooooser is.
Calm the fuck down, Looooser.

budget on the Trump Tower, and cost $200,000,000 to build, today prices run between $1.9 million and $8.5 million, with the average bring about $3.5-4,000,000.  There are 263 apartments in total.  That comes to nearly a billion dollars which originally cost only $200,000,000 to build.  Tell us again that was so egregiously wrong about him going over budget on this build?  I hear what you are saying, but it's not making a lot of sense.

Where did you go to school, Trump University? The only thing you left out was Trump's valuation of his 30,000 sf triplex penthouse apartment at a modest $327 M. http://www.businessinsider.com/ny-ag-trump-falsely-valued-apartment-3-times-real-size-2022-1 But it is in keeping with Trump's valuation of Mar-A-Lago at $1.25 B (real estate experts value MaL at around $23 M).  
.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Tower
"Construction on the building began in 1979. The atrium, apartments, offices, and stores opened on a staggered schedule from February to November 1983. At first, there were few tenants willing to move into the _commercial_ and _retail_ spaces; ****the residential units were sold out within months of opening."*** I.e., much of the value of the 263 units belongs to the owners of the condos, not to Trump.  Using CDL's own numbers, that would be ~$4 M x 263 = ~$1 B of the value belongs to the tenant-owners. However, ...  
.
VALUATION
"In 2016, the tower's value dropped from $630 million to $471 million due to a 20% reduction in the tower's operating income and a further 8% decline in the overall value of real estate in Manhattan. Because of the $100 million debt, Forbes magazine calculated the tower's net worth at $371 million, excluding the Trumps' three-story penthouse, which has a net floor area of 10,996 square feet (1,021.6 m2)." I will use an estimate of $2600 / sf (the very top rate for Manhattan luxury condos) , Trump's 11,000 triplex would be worth around $28 M. Added together, that's 371 + 28 = $399 M, a bit short of CDL's $1 B+. And remember that the condos belong to the tenants, not to Trump.
.
"Sometime prior to 2008, the Trump Organization removed the public bench and installed a counter selling Trump-branded merchandise in the public space passageway inside the Fifth Avenue entrance. They were fined $2,500 in 2008 but the counter remained. By 2015, a second counter had been added. In 2016, the Trump Organization was fined $14,000 and ordered to remove the sales counters and reinstall the bench." This is what I mean about Trump flouting rules, regulations, and CONTRACTS.
.
"Trump Grill was generally panned as gaudy-looking and the food bland-tasting. Vanity Fair called it a contender for "the worst restaurant in America," ... New York magazine wrote that "despite what the sign reads, countless restaurants trump this spot." In December 2016, Yelp reviews of Trump Grill averaged two-and-a-half out of five stars, while Google reviews averaged three of five stars. Health inspections in 2018 reported "evidence of mice or live mice" in and around the kitchen, according to records obtained by the New York Daily News, in violations the inspectors called "critical". ..."
.
"On April 7, 2018, a 4-alarm fire broke out in an apartment in the tower's 50th floor, killing a resident and injuring six firefighters. In a Twitter post, Trump attributed the fire's limited damage to the building's design. ... ***The residential units did not contain sprinklers*** because the structure had been built before 1999, when the city passed a law requiring sprinklers in residential units; ***Trump had lobbied against the proposal.*** The New York City Fire Department (FDNY) subsequently announced that the fire had been accidentally caused by ****power wires that had overheated.**** The April 2018 fire followed a minor electrical fire at the tower earlier that year, which had injured three people. ..." That is, TT will require MAJOR renovations and improvements to meet current codes and probably cost a new owner well over $100 M.

Trump has been saved by Russian and Chinese oligarchs who buy up or take out leases on Trump properties in order to launder their rubles and yuan into dollars.

YOU started the discussion of value by pointing out how much Trump ran over budget building the Trump tower.  Now you want to switch the valuation to how much of the building Trump STILL owns?  The aggregate value of the building includes ALL of the space, regardless of who owns it.  Trump has operational control, but there is a lot of space that he sold outright to residents and no longer owns.  

 
Forbes calculated the PART of the tower owned by Trump at $471 million.  Obviously, the ownership of each individual apartment that does not belong to Trump belongs to someone else, and it would be inappropriate to try to include that additional value in the part of the building owned and operated by Trump.  

 
 Trump still owns the retail space, so why do you have an issue with him selling merchandise within that retail space.  

 
The ADA  attorneys shake down everyone who has even the smallest violation.  Obviously, it was cheaper to pay the fine than to lose the revenue, just like the millions of Democrats who paid the Obamacare penalty because it was cheaper than paying the exorbitant premiums.

 
You seem overly obsessed with the small shit.  This just shows that you and the Dems are always grasping at straws to try to make others believe that Trump is a lot worse than he is.  I don't blame you.  If was a Biden fan, I would probably do the same thing, but of course, I would never be a fan of someone who's mind is not lucid.  

My point -- that you ignored -- was that Trump was an incompetent manager and "builder" who knew very little about construction and building. Either he incompetently estimated the cost of construction (DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO PRODUCE A REALISTIC BUDGET - see below) or he incompetently managed the construction or both. Res had to defy several of Trump's change orders as too costly or too stupid during construction. THAT was my point. The TT should have cost $100 M but Trump mismanaged it up to $200.

Trump can't do Realistic Budgets:  
1. Casino experts warned Trump about overbuilding in Atlantic City. One expert warned him that he needed to allocate more space to the small gambler (the main source of casino profit) and less space to the whales and Trump ignored him and built out half-ass backwards. Trump installed EXPENSIVE "My Precious" chandeliers and glitz and glitter all over the place. The same expert said that the casino would make money for the 2-month Grand Opening and then never again show a profit because of the enormous debt Trump incurred at high interest rates and the cannibalization that harm all of his casinos.
The analyst published that in his financial report. Trump sued and forced his employer to fire him, which they did. The result? Two months of profit and ZERO profitable months thereafter. The analyst sued for damages and won.
.
2. Trump OVER paid for the Plaza Hotel and he admitted it. Experts warned him that he was planning to spend too much money on glitzy renovations. He ignored them and installed MORE glitzy, expensive "My Precious" chandeliers. The Trump Plaza was never profitable and became another one of Trump's bankruptcies.

3. Trump Shit-tle, Trump Steaks, Trump Vodka, Trump University, ...

"Hey, Imp. Your posts are too long."
THE HISTORY OF TRUMP'S BUSINESS FAILURES IS TOO LONG.
Brief summary: If Trump had invested the $413 M he inherited from his father in Index Funds, he would be worth MORE today than he currently claims to be worth. EVERYTHING TRUMP TOUCHES DIES. (Including the Republican Party.) YOU are the one who raised the issue of the CURRENT value. Your point was to show that the OVER budget TT still increased in value. Point taken. Did you stop to consider that an ON budget or UNDER budget TT would have been an even smarter move? I don't have the Forbes article so I don't know what they were or were not estimating. The cost for someone to buy the ENTIRE building from top to bottom, including buying out the condo owners? YOU INCLUDED the value of all 263 condos in YOUR estimate. This disagreement won't be settled w/o more detailed info about the various estimates.
  The examples taken from the wikipedia article were just SOME of the abuses that show that Trump doesn't give a flying fuck about contracts, regulations, and so on. In order to get a tax break, he agreed to the allocation of some public spaces which included the benches. UNILATERALLY, Trump decided to remove the benches and put in Trump merch instead. HE VIOLATED HIS CONTRACT WITH THE CITY OF NEW YORK. **THAT** was the point. (He installed a flag pole at Mar-a-Log that violated local zoning laws. I forget how that was settled. And MANY other "I'm above the law" violations.  You are thinking of Lauren Boebert who I posted about the other day. For three years before entering Congress, her family did not have health insurance.I reply with specific rebuttals to the grandiose but succinct LIES that you and willy and Lost and others post.  
.
It is currently the House Republicans who are obsessed with "small shit" while important legislation languishes. Boebert was conducting a Congressional investigation into whether public urination in DC is a crime or not while there were mass shootings going on.
http://twitter.com/AZ_Brittney/status/1641517517960278016
Lauren Boebert is more concerned with public urination than gun violence.  
(Just citing a twiitter quote instead of any of a dozen lengthy articles on Boebert's BIG ISSUE.)

Comer is fixated on ~$20 M of income income that Hunter! Hunter! Hunter! over several years  but has ZERO interest in $4 B that Kushner received from Middle East governments that can be directly tied to such Presidential decisions as the Saudi Arabia blockage of Qatar. Kushner's management fee on his Middle East investment fund will be more than $25 M per year, a percentage deemed to be double the standard rate on similar investment funds. (I guess the Saudis just like Kushner for all that he did for them while he was in the WH.)  Just the "small shit."

END OF MESSAGE

Two posts in a row are fine if they same something like CDLs, when you do two posts in a row, it’s just age and rage baby! Spittle flying nonstop! Does your nurse wet wipe your iPad or phone down each day for you?

I wasn't commenting on CDL's posts. I was commenting on imp's.
(Oh, and see...I used an apostrophe twice, unlike you, pinhead).
Are you angry all the time because your ignorance has made you a total failure at life? That would make you like other Trumpers, angry at the world for taking away what they think is owed them just for being white and uneducated. No wonder Trump said, "I love the poorly-educated." Because you're so easy to fool.
