It is true that Fred Trump kept things going by penny-pinching.Trump's dad was mean as h*ll--one of the meanest!
DJT suffered from emotional abuse as a boy..
Now he's the President who wants to be king!
A 1940 interview in American Builder and Building Age
compared him to Henry Ford, the car magnate
because Fred Trump hated to borrow money.
He was also cheap on the overhead.
“The stories that are told about Fred Trump are legion,” the profile said.
“For example, until last year he never had an office
and carried all his bookkeeping records around in his pocket.
The ‘office’ he now has is a little structure of about 90 square feet of space
in which the only occupant is a girl to write letters and answer the telephone.
He still does most of his office work on the breakfast table at home.
He keeps most of his records, including payroll and material disbursements
in a little black book carried in his inside pocket.”
This information certainly makes Trump’s giant towers
and mahogany boardroom tables
look like a kind of overcompensation
