Alexander Hamilton had Donald Trump’s number, all the way back in 1788. From Federalist No. 75 (emphasis added):

But a man raised from the station of a private citizen to the rank of chief magistrate … might sometimes be under temptations to sacrifice his duty to his interest, which would require superlative virtue to withstand. An avaricious man might be tempted to betray the interests of the state to the acquisition of wealth. An ambitious man might make his own aggrandizement, by the aid of a foreign power, the price of his treachery to his own constituents.

Yeah, the Founders had his number alright.
