I am in awe of Donald Trump

You gotta hand it to Trump. He is the GREATEST con man of all time. Years of perfidy, deception, and denial have earned his place in the top of the heap. In addition, he found millions of gullible, hive minded and insular rubes and turned them into his followers. I am awestruck of his reach.

Sure, he makes out like a bandit -which he is. But he also takes all the attention off those who want him exactly where he is.
