What's the difference between most of us and Donald Trump?

What's the difference between most of us and Donald Trump?

When someone screams "pedophile protector," most of us know it's not directed at us.

From many reports Trump was abused by his father, ignored by his mother, and likely is a fetal alcohol victim.

Donnie dumpster is a bully who has no morals (“my morality limits me”) and has never been held accountable for his actions by anyone ever. Hopefully that will change soon.

This is what you get when a child is shown no love and is taught to use and discard all others after they are of no further use to him. Basically, a monster was created, a thing not able to be a fully functioning human being. Other people don’t exist except for what they can do to enrich it.
We will continue to suffer until its life has ended, and for some time after, as we try to repair the damage it has done.
Most of us were not raised that way, that is the difference.
