You missed another thing he loves doing. He smashed an historical building in the early '70s in NYC during the starting of his "real estate" career. He smashed an historical building while other people were offering to pay to have the historical artifacts properly recovered. His excuse at the time? "It would have been too expensive." Meanwhile he knew it would have been free to him, it just would have taken 6-8 months later for him to break ground.
He's continued desecrating any historical site he can get his hands on, to this day.
He gets off on destroying historical monuments.
...because he can. And nobody will stop him.
This immediately made me read your comment in a strong French accent
(At least in my dialect, word-initial h's are pronounced as a consonant. That means it would be "a historical" instead of "an")
Not even that long. According to "John Baron", it was 2 weeks.
