Donald Trump has offered to buy the LA mansion of Ed McMahon — saving it from foreclosure — and then lease it back to McMahon, who defaulted on his loans.
The developer told the Los Angeles Times he doesn’t know McMahon personally, but acted out of compassion because helping out “would be an honor.”
“When I was at the Wharton School of Business I’d watch him every night,” Trump told the Times. “How could this happen?”
Dude, Trump, do you ever fucking even hear yourself? Must you plug Wharton every chance you get? We get it, dude, you went to a good business school. But that was like 100 years ago, and you sound like a complete tool whenever you go out of your way to mention it. It’s like, ya know, I was on the honor roll in middle school, but I don’t bring it up much these days, because nobody cares and I’d sound like an asshole.
The deal is expected to be completed sometime soon.
And also, just so we’re all clear here, what Donald Trump is actually doing is purchasing valuable Los Angeles real estate at foreclosure prices at a time when the market’s down anyway — and the property comes complete with both a renter and tons of free publicity!
DONALD TRUMP IS DOING NO ONE A FAVOR HERE EXCEPT FOR DONALD TRUMP.

You sound like an asshole :p
I doubt Donald Trump has done this out of compassion. There is no such thing as helping others when it comes to Donald Trump. He likes to make it look that way, but his purpose is not to help others, he only helps himself. If he decided to buy out Ed McMahon’s house, it’s because he could see hidden value and an undeniable return on investment. Ed McMahon may be in more trouble than he was before, but he doesn’t realize it.
Nothing against Ed, but I can think of a few million people more worthy of “compassion” if Trump’s in a giving mood. His brand of philanthropy is a joke.
haha… the first time I read this I totally tought it said Vince McMahon! hahahaaa. I’m stupid. :)

So what kind of rent is he going to charge?
Old dinosaur helps older dinosaur :)
