Donald Trump didn't become a billionaire by chance. He, also, didn't beat out all of the conservative competition by chance. He knows how to play the media game. He isn't one of the "Boy's" from Washington and because of this the media, democrat's and many republican's will do and say anything they can to malign him.
HE KNOWS THIS, and he is playing them against each other. Interesting how the media and the Democrat's were 100% convinced he would loose the election. They forgot to tell the American people! Oh, we all forgot: he hijacked the election didn't he? Right! Americans are all so dumb, right?
We'll see what happens in November!
You sir are almost entirely correct: not by chance did he become a billionaire, but by birth. He inherited all his money, which he squandered leading to multiple bankruptcies. The only reason he still has money is through the corruption of privatised gains and socialised losses (which defines crony capitalism, i.e., the opposite of actual free market capitalism). And he didn't beat out the conservative competition by chance, he really is pretty good at WWF style 'reality' tv - at least he is when he has a whole production company working with him to make him look 'good'.
But no. folks don't need to do or say anything to malign him, they just need to speak the truth about his behaviour. And no, Americans aren't all so dumb, I mean, the majority did not vote for him; and he is overwhelmingly unpopular. So Americans aren't all dumb; even many Trump voters had reasons to vote for him that were not entirely dumb (I, for one, had to hold my nose while voting Hillary - I cannot stand the entrenched Washington machine she embodies.) But Today. Still. Trump? Really? That is seriously uninformed - no. It is immorally dumb. All you have are lies - democrats want to destroy America. Yeah. Sure. Liberals are traitors. Yeah. Putin and Xi Jinping are laughing all the way to world domination.
Enough already. ITMFA!
Holy Maccaroni,do you really believe that?
Conrad - Belief isn't strong enough a word. I know it, and, if you are honest, so do you. Did or did not Trump inherit an enormous fortune from his father (who actually was successful - though not at raising his children)? Did or did not Trump file for bankruptcies 6 times? (interesting note, he lied to say that he went bankrupt 4 times, it was later uncovered that the correct number is 6). The man is not a self-made success - this is obvious even to the most casual observer. So yes. I know it.
For crying out loud, the man lost money running casinos! Nearly every business he began failed! - Had a trump steak lately? read a Trump Magazine? Been to a Trump Casino? Flown Trump Air? The ONLY thing he did well was 1) trade on his name and sell licensing to other people to build 'trump' properties (that he did not own). 2) 'reality' tv. and 3) money laundering for the Russian mob - allegedly.
Oh, did I mention sexually assaulting numerous women and then bragging about it? yeah, he's 'good' at that too. His own wife accused him of rape: the first one, the one he publicly humiliated with his numerous affairs that he splashed over the tabloids (google Marla + Trump). And did I mention that he's a racist? Yeah, that goes back to his inheritance (his father was also racist - and they both were sued for refusing to rent to black folks), and also his (failed) casinos, where black folks were not allowed to work the floor (and thus were limited in employment), and yes, there were law suits there too. Not to mention the (innocent) 'Central Park five' that he wanted executed simply for being black in the park when someone else (who was white) raped and beat a white woman. Oh, I could go on, but will post a single reference: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/jan/12/racism-and-donald-trump-a-common-thread-throughout-his-career-and-life
FACTS ARE REAL THINGS - try learning a few, you'll avoid making a fool of yourself. But all you can say is 'holy macaroni"???? This isn't funny. We have in the White House an ignorant, failed, racist, rapist, spoiled son of an oligarch who simply does not believe in either democracy or America. You support that?
