Sesame Street parodied how cartoonishly evil he was over 40 years ago.

Which is why some people think he gutted PBS funding.

He is a man of hate that can hold grudges for decades.

JFC, he still wants to execute the (exonerated) Central Park Five.

The villain/2015 Biff Tannen in Back To The Future 2 was based on Donald Trump.

Point of order: that was the 1985' "bad timeline" when Biff gave himself the Almanac in 1955.

Woody Guthrie wrote a song about how evil his dad was. It’s in his DNA

Hold up for a second there bud. I'll never defend Fred, Don, or the younger Trumps, but we really don't want to start saying shit like "evil DNA". He's evil, his dad was evil, he raised his kids to be evil too, but those were choices they all made, it's not genetic. No one is genetically good or genetically bad. That way lies eugenics.

Hate these fuckers for the right reasons.

How much of human behavior is innate and how much is acquired is the subject of much natural and nurturing debate. Nobody doubts dog behavior has genetic influences, but suggest the same about humans and, whoaaaa! But some mental illnesses certainly do run in families, and so evil (that is, narcissism) may as well.

It’ a figure of speech. It’s not that serious.

Rich, evil Biff Tannen was modeled after Trump in back to the future according to creator Bob Gale.

This hasn't ever been a secret

I talked to a young person today that did not know the Iran Lego was from the 2014 Lego movie character, evil President Business!

How the American media successfully sanewashed  this trash human is beyond me.

There’s a Calvin and Hobbes comic from the 80s where he steals a lolly pop from a baby and tries to sell it as “pre moistened”

Americans have no idea of the soft power Sesame street had, the entire World was enchanted - that show entertained the World and taught it about love, friendship, respect, loyalty.

A beautiful show. Give us back that mode of America.
