Donald Trump reminds me of Al Capone.
For years Al got away with all kinds of serious crimes like murder, extortion, human trafficking, making and distributing illegal booze, and many other ruthless racketeering enterprises.
And while he may not have ever conspired to overthrow the United States government, it's probably safe to assume that, given the chance, he would not have passed up an opportunity to become dictator for life of the most powerful country on the planet.
But, like a lot of people, including Donald Trump, who become too accustomed to getting away with the big stuff, Al Capone lost sight of the little things creeping up to bite a big chunk out of his ass, and ended up in prison for failing to pay his taxes.
And so it is with "The Donald." Who could have possibly forseen that he would one day face jail time for lying about paying hush money to a porn star to keep her from talking about sexual favors he claims he never received from her?
As the old saying goes: "Truth is often stranger than fiction. "
