in the 50's and 60's. Blue Collar. Even had my own not pleasant encounter with "The Donald" as a young working woman. Oh, you can go farther back than the 80's with the average New Yorker's "love affair" with Dump. To KNOW him is to NOT love him.

He is a despicable human being.

I have never met one New Yorker that didn't think he was anything but a joke. His name was code for vulgarity.
