Donald Trump's callous disregard for the reality of this situation knows no bounds
Trump Tower is a 58 story building containing a
mix of residential apartments, business premises, retail stores and restaurants
in mid-town Manhattan, New York.
The
thirty-four year old building has been the site of two fires this year.
An
electrical fire in the air conditioning-heating system in January 2018 which injured
three people and a 50th floor blaze at approx. 5.30pm on 7 April 2018
which killed one person and injured at least four others.
None of the 238
apartments on the 38 residential floors below the three-story Trump
penthouse have sprinkler systems installed.
….firefighters
and Secret Service members checked on the condition of Mr Trump's apartment on
the top floors of the 58-storey building.
TrumpTower residents were not advised there was a fire in the building. With the exception of one celebrity resident who was contacted by President Trump's personal attorney and told to leave the building immediately for their own safety.

America, Fox News and Trump are both having a lend of you.
And a worried world has noticed…….
Daily Kos, 19 April 2017:
In South Korea, Hong
Joon-pyo ... said: “What Mr. Trump said was very important for the national
security of South Korea. If that was a lie, then during Trump’s term, South
Korea will not trust whatever Trump says.”

Charles M. Blow: "America elected a parasite"
If words could drive U.S. President Donald J. Trump from office he would be gone by now……….
The New York Times journalist Charles M. Blow on13 March 2017:
We have now passed the 50-day mark of the Donald Trump administration and one thing is clear: There is no new Trump.
There is only the same old Trump: Dangerous and unpredictable, gauche and greedy, temperamentally unsuited and emotionally unsound.
If you were trying to create in a lab a person with character traits more unbecoming in a president, it would be hard to outdo the one we have.
He continues to have explosive Twitter episodes — presumably in response to some news he finds unflattering or some conspiracy floated by fringe outlets — that make him look not only foolish, but unhinged…..
In these fits of rage, he generates a lie or repeats one, which shifts the burden of proof to the legitimate media to swat it down and defend the truth. This exercise is already getting old.
Trump’s assaults on the truth are not benign. Presidential credibility is American credibility. There is no way to burn through one without burning through the other.
And when he’s not making explosive charges, he’s taking destructive actions.
He has signed a slew of executive actions to demonstrate his power and signal his administrative direction.
As Business Insider pointed out, as of March 6, “The 45th president has signed 34 executive actions so far, with far-reaching effects on Americans’ lives.” These included “16 executive orders in 45 days.”….
As The Hill reported on Saturday, “President Trump paid a visit to one of his golf courses again Saturday, marking apparently his ninth visit to a golf course in the seven weeks since he took office.” The site pointed out, “Trump has made several weekend trips to his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Fla., as well, calling the property the ‘Winter White House.’ ”
In February, numerous media outlets pointed out that Trump was spending on travel in a month nearly as much as what the Obamas spent in a year. This doesn’t even include the travel and security costs of Trump’s children or the cost of Trump’s wife and son remaining in Trump Tower in New York, at least for now, which is estimated to cost taxpayers hundreds of thousand of dollars a day.
This was particularly jarring because Trump had been a chief critic of the amount of money the Obamas spent on vacations. Indeed, Trump tweeted in 2012: “President @BarackObama’s vacation is costing taxpayers millions of dollars — Unbelievable!”
No, what is unbelievable is the staggering nature of the hypocrisy of Trump and his current spending and the near silence of Obama’s conservative critics.
Trump appears to view the Treasury as a personal piggy bank and the presidency as a part-time job.
I think any who have been holding out hope that Trump will eventually change into someone more polished, professional and amenable than the man we have come to know must simply abandon that hope.
This is a 70-year-old man who has lived his entire life as the vile, dishonest, incurious creature who got elected. That election validated his impulses rather than served as a curb on them.
Trump will continue to debase and devalue the presidency with his lies. Trump will continue to follow Bannon’s philosophy of internal deconstruction of our government, its principles and its institutions. And Trump will continue to leech as much personal financial advantage as he can from the flesh of the American public.
That’s who Trump is. America elected a parasite.
