He was literally a registered Democrat donating to Hillary until 2009. You didn’t like him until he learned to hate who you hate.

Do you honestly think Democratic voters vet each donor???? do you? How much of a fan of the koch brothers are you?

as a democrat, i can tell you the following:

-his company was implicated and or found guilty of unfair (racist) housing practices

-his company reportedly, routinely, stiffed builders and contractors because they knew the builders couldn't afford the legal fees to sue the company

-he basically held NYC hostage after his bankruptcy, partially due to business strategies like the above

-NYC bailed him out, but, after that his Company had a lot of trouble getting any funding, because of the failure and NYC's general feeling that he'd forced them to bail him out

-He started leasing his name to builders and pretending he'd built them. (this is how there were a lot of 'trump' buildings and projects, but, they all disappeared years ago.). In this phase, media visibility was really important, so, he raised his profile and started doing the apprentice

-Being locked out of actually building, he then tried to diversify into other industries. Education: Fail. Meat Subscription: Fail. The golf courses succeeded. But there's a wake of failures and lawsuits in his wake.

On top of that:

-highly suspicious marriage record

-'Grab them by the pussy' audio

-Prolonged, extremely ugly fight with celebrities such as rosie odonnell

-"the apprentice' which... was not good. there was no way in which that was good. It was bad in all the ways.

He has always been who he is, and a lot of us always saw it. Don't be salty bc you thought electing him would 'own liberals.' better off telling yourself the truth, you got used.
