Been to MSP lately? It’s like a dystopian nightmare.

Trump's crazy faucet talk is code for rerenegotiating the Columbia River Treaty current awaiting Senate approval. Canada won't agree. Hydrologists say it's too expensive and won't actually work.

You asked what has he done. He’s done a lot. As a conservative, I didn’t figure you’d find the list attractive. Again, what had Trump done before being President besides run business venture after business venture into the ground?

I didn’t vote for Donald Trump 🤷🏻‍♂️

Let’s be honest. As you like to say about Bill Self, you’d love to fail at his rate. It’s literally insane to say he’s never done anything but run businesses into the ground.

There is much to be said for being born on third base. It doesn't mean you hit a triple.

Trump bankrupted some casinos. His investors, contactors, and employees got bent over. He walked away with what? $100,000,000? Then he bragged about how clever he was.

He monetized the Presidency and bragged about not taking a salary.
He monetized losing the election by playing the victim card.

He monetized being charged with crimes by playing the same card.

I think it takes someone with a severe personality disorder  to fail at this rate and still sleep at night.

It's well known that Trump is a piece of shit. His cult doesn't care.

Wealth isn't created by hard work. The only thing that creates wealth - is wealth. Born on 3rd base, thinks he hit a triple.

Great minds.

The other problem with that graph is that the big bump on the right side is his stake in $DJT, which will be very difficult to extract any actual money from

supposedly his current stake is 1.6 billion. The stock peaked at 5x the current price - so Trump has lost 6 billion in value in that position from the top.

He’s unequivocally taken whatever he was gifted and made it much, much more. We can add qualifiers and exceptions and asterisks all we want but that’s the truth. I didn’t say it was ethical.

I can see where he’s coming from. It’s hard to generate any kind of wealth when you grow up dirt poor. It really takes a lot of hard, hard work and even then you’re still behind the 8 ball with a lot of shit.

I know dudes that are doing pretty well after coming from a bad sitch. Myself included. But it would have been a hell of a lot easier to start with something, as opposed to nothing.

I’ll put it another way. I didn’t join the Air Force because I wanted to follow my buddy to Iraq. I did it because I had limited choices. It turned out ok.

By more do you mean that in his 70's, two people tried to assassinate him? Something to aspire to. You can't take it with you.

If you started with Trump's inheritance, and put it in the stock market, not only would you have a lot more money than you do, you'd have more money than *Trump*

This is an Illinois board, but I guess maybe not everyone here is a UIUC graduate. If you are, you started ahead of the vast majority of the country.

Of course, not everyone does as well from the same starting point, because some people do in fact work harder than others, and do more with the advantages they are given...

For example, if we assume that Custard is a UIUC graduate, and that Murphstahoe is a UIUC graduate....
