I am also willing for you to go to jail.

And I’m guessing the judge also plays racquetball or something.

    I’ve hated Donald Trump since he ruined our Christmas Eve in 1989.

    When I was young, we had a family tradition of buying a new board game every year for Christmas. It was the one gift we would open as a family on Christmas Eve, so we’d have something new and fun to do together for the evening. In 1989, Milton Bradley released Trump: The Game. My older brother, who has always been interested in ways to get rich, was a fan of Donald Trump at the time (he got better), and insisted that we get the game that year. It was awful. We played it once and I don’t think we ever opened the box again. It was somehow simultaneously too confusing and too simplistic to be fun.

      I thought this was going to go in a different direction. I thought you were going to say that he ruined Christmas because he didn’t pay for work performed by one of your parents. It was a thing! People in South Jersey used to hate him because of that. Many of them now love him and somehow seem to have forgotten the damage he did in the '90s.

        Why do people work for people like that? I have a standing policy, you back charge or pay late and we are done professionally. I got one customer at work who threatened a back charge, didn’t but threatened it, every single quote to them gets a 300% adder and I copy every department head. I call it the back-charge adder.

          They didn’t know that he wasn’t going to pay them.

        I’ll freely admit my reasons for hating him back then were petty and childish. But in my defense, I was a child 🤣

      Oh, God. I asked for that game as well and unfortunately got it. Worst board game I’ve ever played. Thought it would be close to Monopoly… or even Hotels which also came out in the 80s and was decent. Couldn’t be more wrong. I think I still have it in my childhood closet. I would sell it on eBay, but I think I’m just gonna toss it into the garbage… while also letting the pieces fall out so no one else can play it. He’s been grifting people his whole life.
