In American politics, one fails UP. People admire a bigtime scumbag. Since he proved he can con people out of money, that in itself is a virtue to many people.

Its amazing that we have reached this point. Time was when grifting/scamming were condemned but now people glorify these grifters/scammers so much. Seems like all it matters in the end is how much they made and not the means nor the ethics.
