I’d bet that Trump remembers (or did until his brain turned to mush) the name of every single kid who refused an invite or didn’t turn up to his birthday parties. He probably even remembered which kids brought the cheapest gifts. Further, I’d guess that he did all he could to get even with rhem, whether at school or later in life if their paths crossed.
AoS, my mother had a memory like that. It’s definitely possible. She refused to ever watch anything Lucille Ball was in, because Ball was born in her hometown, and one time wouldn’t get off the plane on a visit because the town refused to roll out the red carpet. (Kinda petty on both sides, IMHO.) My mother-in-law could remember everyone who stiffed her on a tip at the restaurant they ran.
I’ve always wondered if holding grudges caused a good memory, or was caused by a good memory, or just has had a coincidental correlation in the people I have known. (Everyone in our family has a good memory, including myself, but I’m not much of a grudge-holder – I do sometimes, but only for big things – so maybe it’s just coincidence.)

“How do you think history will remember John Lewis?”
“Who?”

Swan: How do you think history will remember John Lewis?
Trump: He was funny in those movies with Dean Martin.
