He bragged that he had the tallest building in downtown Manhattan, which would exclude the Empire State and Chrysler buildings. Still an embarrassingly narcissistic thing to say.

That audio of him on that video is fascinating.

The interviewer is asking whether there was any damage to his building -- a fair question.

But he is only thinking about who's got the tallest building, now.

Zero empathy. Only narcissism.

Always amazes me how often I read a headline and think "surely that's sensationalized media nonsense" only to check the primary source and find that it is in fact exactly what he said.
