    Remember the toilet paper march up the steps into Air Force One?

      Could be that he’s the type to shoot the messenger, and nobody wanted to be told “You’re fired” for letting him know he’s got tp on his feetsies.

      I find that even more chilling. The number of people that know him and despise him, but are willing to toe the line and throw everything away just for a shot at more money.

          There will never be anything funnier than Four Seasons Total Landscaping. If I was a comedy TV writer, I would have quit that day because there’d never be a way I could top the hilarious absurdity of that press conference.

      No respect, definitely contempt, and probably fear.

      He’s like the cartoon evil bad guy boss. His minions suck up to him, keep him in power and praise him in public, but behind his back they hate him, mock him, take joy in his failings, and want him to fail. But they’re always worried that they’ll fall on his disfavor and get booted.
