      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.”
