| - The Trump Tower was originally the Baxter Building, where a young Donald Trump investigated how cosmic rays might be harnessed and applied to amplify human characteristics, such as infinite elasticity and an Invisible Woman. In a fateful experiment, he turned an old flame into the Human Torch. Looking at the smouldering ashes, Trump got a vision to rebuild the tower higher than ever. Yuge. He hired Breccia Pernice as the construction executive. At the time, she was one of the only women in construction management, but Trump presumably groped her because he views all women as objects. Sad.

| - The Trump Tower was originally the Baxter Building, where a young Donald Trump investigated how cosmic rays might be harnessed and applied to amplify human characteristics, such as infinite elasticity and an Invisible Woman. In a fateful experiment, he turned an old flame into the Human Torch. In 2001, jihadis flew airliners into the Baxter Building and other tall towers. This instantly transformed ne'er-do-well George W. Bush into a successful U.S. President and initiated a frantic search for other ne'er-do-wells who might succeed him. Trump himself would eventually be sucked into this frenzy. Looking at the smouldering ashes, Trump got a vision to rebuild the tower higher than ever. Yuge. He hired Breccia Pernice as the construction executive. At the time, she was one of the only women in construction management, but Trump presumably groped her because he views all women as objects. Sad. The rebuilding plan was controversial. Midtown Manhattan has astonishing rules that prevent even a jillionaire from building a tower of unlimited height, and the mayor would not approve the plan unless it incorporated a mosque. Trump had to purchase the air rights with a $5 million payment to Tiffany's, in case he ever wanted to fly a commercial jet into their flagship store. A noted opponent was the New York Committee For A Building Boom But With A Strict Two-Story Height Limit. It objected to the plan for a 60-story building. What it got was a 68-story building, though as consolation, the building's atrium is the first ten stories. It is owned by New York City and is designated as both a National Historic Site and a protected wetland (because of the waterfall). It remains the only protected wetland in the U.S. with vending machines. Construction was accelerated when Trump found corrupt politicians of both parties and contributed to their campaign funds, which did not constitute joining in the corruption but just knowing what it takes to get the job done. Construction was further accelerated when Trump dumped several limestone Art Deco bas-relief sculptures of semi-nude goddesses into the Hudson River instead of donating them to the Metropolitan Museum of Art as promised, so that it could smear them in chocolate and hang crucifixes on them. The New York Times called Trump's act vandalism, but he did not bat an eye, as the Times would go on to call everything else he did vandalism. The Times has always had a soft spot for Art Deco, and a hard spot for Republicans, though Trump at the time was a Democrat.
