Read what you just wrote. Good, now read it again. Ok now, do you see how ridiculous you come across? Hopefully one of your resolutions for 2016 is to fix that jealousy, it's not healthy.
Read the article. He inherited 500 million, and turned it into a claimed 10 Billion (Forbes estimates 5 billionish). Which sounds great until you realize that he would have 20 billion if he had simply indexed it. Thats not jealousy, those are facts. I'm not sure why you read jealousy into it. Thats an emotion, but I am relating FACTS.
Real estate is a passion to him and the family business, the family legacy. Did you think that if his passion was the market then that's where the money would have went? The Art of The Deal, not just the name of his book, but it means something to him. The hunt, the chase, the thrill. Then the satisfaction of building something, watching steel and glass rising to great heights, making reality what was just a vision in your mind. I can go on but I'm sure you understand. Say what you want, but he has a gift.
We all are great at certain things, but not all of us take that talent and make it our life's work, let alone become a multi billionaire. I'm more then willing to give him that opportunity to see if it can translate. His love for America is obvious, how can anyone think that this man will not do everything in his power to make this country an absolute powerhouse again?
Hillary? All I see is more of the same, and honestly we are much better then that. I expect greatness, not the status quo.
Except they wouldn't be paying taxes, or at least much less taxes, and there would be many many more jobs available, so they'd be doing better than if we had a socialist in the WH who taxed too much and there was nothing to show for it, as we've seen in Democrat strongholds all around the nation.
Please link to a speech where Trump has advocated repealing the minimum wage (or rolling it back to $3/hour). Or link to an issues paper on his website that outlines this.
Actually the $3 thing I saw during the summer (NA summer) during a debate. He compared U$ wages to China's and mentioned adovcating low pay like that, so 'Murica could compete globally. But Trump-ettes will believe what they wish. Glad I won;t have to deal with that mess- I'll stick to my $28+ per hour job with 10x the worker protection and actual rights the 'Murica workers "enjoy"
1:18 mark, our wages are too high. He won't repeal it, however he thinks its already too high.
He never said the current minimum wage was too high. The question was about protesters demanding a $15/hr minimum wage. Yes, $15/hr to flip burgers when you can't even remember to give me napkins IS too high for people starting out. If Trump wanted us all to subsist on pennies why does his tax plan nullify federal taxes for individuals earning $under $25k and couples earning under $50k?
If by success you mean inheriting millions, and making less money then if he had simply invested them in index funds......that seems to be somewhat of a failure.
That's pure speculation. Besides, when your in that income bracket, and worth Billions in any number, be it 1 or 20, there is no such word as "Failure" and you know it and I know it.
How many folks have you heard say, "That Guy is a Failure being a Millionaire? I can bet you never heard anyone say that anyone was a failure because they where a "Billionaire," either, so why even think that's a reasonable statement. When you are worth that kind of money, the "Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda" speeches don't work, regardless of who it is, and what their state of mind is.
Saying he is "somewhat" of a Failure, is like saying some one alive is "Somewhat" Dead. You either are, or you aren't.

You can likely bet that the Clowns who made all these speculations aren't worth anywhere near what Trump is. When they surpass what Trump has, and did it their way, then they have the credibility to come back and preach to us. Until that, they are nothing but "Backseat" Drivers. Same as the Clowns that said Trump would not make it through a week as a Candidate.
You obviously haven't heard one thing Trump has said about taxes.
I find WND more credible than 99% of main stream media. Don't believe if you don't want to. Its just simple that he is hitting the right notes to make people of all races support him.
You find it credible because it reinforces your small minded view points. That's they problem with today's "media." They write garbage and people think it's true simply because it agrees with what they already believe.

Its not speculation, its math. There is in fact a difference.
The people saying trump would not last a week are speculating. Again, one is math and facts, the other is opinion.
I love these threads . . . Hispanics (especially the Mexicans), African-Americans (especially the pastors), Asian-Americans, Jews, gays, white liberals, POWs, Muslims, women, handicapped, intelligent open-minded people, etc. all line up behind Mr. Trump. Wow, he must have 100% support of the entire electorate then . . . . what, only 40% among just GOP candidates?
