I thought about Trump almost not at all. What - a real estate guy who
slathers his name on every building that he puts up? Sounds very
egotistical. And a game show with a punch line "You're fired!"?? I don't
watch any game shows, and if I did, that would be low on the list.

Tom is making a common ideologue mistake: assuming everyone that
disagrees with him has exactly the same opinions.

Again and again you show your total ignorance of business. That is called "branding" and not egotism. Do you say that about Motel 6 or the Radisson chain?


I wasn't aware that any Mister 6 was responsible for splashing his name
on all those Hotel 6 buildings. And I see that Radisson was named after
a 17th century French explorer. Did he return from the dead to promote
his "brand"?

A counter-example: Arni Nashbar is a friend of mine. He started a
business called Bike Warehouse that did remarkably well. At a time it
was growing rapidly, the name changed to Bike Nashbar. As he was showing
a bunch of us around the works at that time, he said he resisted that
name change; but his lawyers said it would be difficult to impossible to
defend a copyright on "Bike Warehouse" - that it was too generic. They
urged him to use his last name.

I think that was pretty much the opposite of the self-proclaimed "stable
genius," the "I'm a very smart guy," the guy who said "I really am
brilliant," etc.

Can you spot any egotism? I can.

Every time you post you show why your life has been a failure and why your hatred for anyone and everyone around you is so intense.


Tom, I'm sorry you're a nut case living in a hell hole. I really am
sorry. But please understand, it's not my fault.
