*Donald Trump used a question in Thursday night’s GOP Town Hall with CNN’s Anderson Cooper to boast about how close he was to Michael Jackson, and to offer an unsolicited opinion about his career in the years before his death.
Asked what music he listens to, the presidential candidate mentioned Elton John, the Rolling Stones and The Beatles before reserving the most praise for the King of Pop.
He recalled how MJ lived at his Trump Tower in NY, and how the singer got married to Lisa Marie Presley at one of his VIP clubs, the Mar-a-Lago. “He was up there for one week with her and he never came down,” Trump said. “I don’t know what was going on but they got along.”
“He was an unbelievably talented guy. He lost his confidence. He lost tremendous confidence because of, honestly, bad-bad-bad surgery. He had the worst. He had people that did numbers on him that were just unbelievable,” Trump continued. “Facially, you know, the plastic surgeons. He was an unbelievable talent who actually lost his confidence. Believe it or not, when you lose your confidence in something, you can even lose your talent.”
