American Psycho for prez: Donald Trump’s sons epitomize the ’80s-style yuppie villainy of his campai

I just came across this article from March, but I found this paragraph in particular to be spot on.

"Trump’s sons are such pitch-perfect preening preps that they read as unsubtle satire rather than real people. Both of them are dead ringers for Christian Bale’s serial killer character in “American Psycho.” And while The Donald has a certain comic timing that makes his prep school bully routine funny, both of his sons are not so blessed, laying bare the grotesque soul rot that happens when mediocre white men have enough wealth and privilege that they’re fooled into thinking they are actually something special."

I know they are big believers in the racehorse theory; that they were bred for greatness.

can barely look at them because I remember my boyfriend's face dripping with the stuff when it rained. That was a long time ago though - maybe they have something like pectin in it now. They are also good mannequins.
