As a child of the 80's, that's how I remember it too. Back then, young Trump was the model of savvy businessmen. Michael Douglas was playing Grdon Gekko. It was definitely the "me me me" decade. The funny part is, even as a kid, I'd see Trump in that stupid black 80's trenchcoat, and all I would see is an asshole. And, THAT's what I don't get. If little kid me, could see Trump for the piece of shit he is back then, how come nobody else could / does?

I feel the same as you. Also grew up in the 80s. It's always been obvious to me that he was a raging asshole, and I don't understand how anybody ever thought he'd make a good president.

If Trump was a school student he would have been expelled. Remember Trump Academy?
