Analysis: Trump won’t change; he can’t let go of a grudge
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump will not change.
He may surround himself with new staff and even listen to their advice for a while. He may stick to a scripted, more measured message if it looks to be working.
But he’ll always be the man who can’t let go of a grudge, whether it’s with a judge who ruled against him or a military father whose son was killed fighting for the United States overseas.
He’ll always be the man who embarrassed a young beauty queen about her weight, then defended his comments two decades later when Hillary Clinton raised them in a debate. And the man who on Friday — just 38 days away from potentially being elected president of the United States — deepened his highly personal criticism of former Miss Universe Alicia Machado in a pre-dawn Twitter tirade.
