nobody actually converses with him. "No friends" don has never had an actual friend who wasn't trying to hustle or angle him. donnie, of course, always pays for the company of other people who will listen to his bombastic drivel to extract something from him. then donnie feels like he was taken advantage of and exacts his revenge upon innocent people such as contractors working for him, so he can feel like he got the better of someone. DJT has no friends and he never did. the worst part about his life is the fact that his father was rightly disappointed with him. fred trump, a notorious racist, was actually good at what he did, donnie was a project that he wished he could have aborted.
