Donald Trump and the Desire for Recognition
I think the entire reason that Donald Trump is the way he is, and I've lived in New York for a while now, is that the traditional New York kind of elite set never accepted him. They always viewed him, no matter how much money he made, as this borish, awful, detestable guy. And like, there's one particular incident at the White House Correspondence Dinner when Obama was president. It was so humiliating to have the entire room laughing at him. He apparently slunk off. That may have been what kept his desire to run for president is to prove all those people wrong.
