Isn’t he the guy who went down to Puerto Rico and fed thousands on his own dime? Nobody in that room was fit to shine his fucking shoes, save for the employees. And may the Goddess hold him close to Her bountiful bosom all the days of his life, amen! ---

Well, as I said - he ain’t Hillary. That is a fact. He’s also pro-business. This is a good thing and the stock market is reflecting it. He’s not a professional politician. That also is a fact. He’s very outspoken and most assuredly NOT politically correct. That is not only a fact, but also a breath of fresh in the DC swamps. ---

And how many small businesses did he rip off, underpay or not pay at all? How many of them went under because they were working the contract they signed with him? Why is that a good thing? Look at yourself. You hate being called names and hide behind your ignore list. So brave. Hurls insults but can’t stand the return fire. ---

At that point, Andrés backed down, saying he believed Trump “personally had nothing to do” with his ouster. But he remained skeptical about the “misunderstanding,” questioning why he was “the only person not allowed in.” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-has-former-president-trump-pissed-you-off-today/777640.md?page=153) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-has-former-president-trump-pissed-you-off-today/777640.md?page=155)
