    Native New Yorker.

    Trump is hated by Blacks here because of the Central Park Five. He’s hated by the Manhattan elites because he promised to preserve a famous building and then demolished it. He’s hated by motorists because he had a highway exit closed. He’s hated by sports fans because he ruined the USFL.

      He’s hated by motorists because he had a highway exit closed.

      Wait, I’ve known about his assholery since the 80s, but what is this about a highway exit?

      It’s so weird how someone that came off like a self-entitled little bitch his entire life was selected, probably for that very reason, to host a stupid game show. Then that game show gives the false impression that he’s a well-respected and successful businessman when he’s been the kind of person normal people tend to hate for decades prior…and now here we are.

        The West Side Highway runs past a complex he put up.

        He decided that traffic getting off the road was making too much noise.

        Delayed access for emergency crews, as well as locals.

      Well I guess in a tangential way, it relates to Bannon’s “firehose of shit.”
