Donald Trump

I have only recently become aware of Donald Trump. And as soon as I saw him in action on the Apprentice USA I've got to say I'm a fan.
I'm not sure what it is about him that I like but I really don't see why he has so many enemies. Hes like a powerful blonde turtle with a comeback for everything. Think your being smart- BOOM- he's shot you down. He's not a misery like Alan Sugar either. He's a laugh and very rarely wears a frown.
Without sounding supa-gay I think I'm attracted to the power. When you see all the hotels and resorts and shizz Trump owns it is fairly impressive. The fact people are protesting him building an incredible golf course and casino in Balmedie angers me. He's Donald frickin Trump! He knows what hes doing.
I'd like to see the point he looked at Balmedie beach- the bunkers, the playpark with the wooden boat with the slide coming out the hull - and thought 'yeah we could build that here'. It'll put Aberdeen on the map as a 'not so bad' place to live.
So he's a bit cocky- thats fair. I can't imagine him being quiet modest though. If that was the case the Apprentice most likely wouldn't exist and he'd stop at just 'a few' millions instead of the expanding and making billions.
My girlfriend told me the year before I started at uni- the man himself was in the building I go to every day at RGU to receive an award. She was literally feet away from him and didn't care at all.
I'm not sure what I would have done in her situation. Wooped in celebration at his presence? Try to score a cheeky autograph? Would he do that?
More likely I'd have sat there in quiet appreciation. Money and power doesn't always make you a dick. I feel Donald Trump proves this.
