Why anyone would brag about money in a world where one man has 100 billion dollars goes over my head. Trump could get his hands on a few million if he had to, but that’s about it. Don’t know why he’s so braggadocio.
In the past, we've had presidents who speak about freedom, about justice, about human rights. But Trump, all he ever thinks about is money and profit.
It's cringe-worthy to hear him rant so relentlessly about money in international talks. And of course his supporters, when trying to come up with something to praise him for, mostly focus on money. It's like they've all given up any sense of humanity or community.
I love how he put tariffs against billions of dollars of Chinese goods but shoes were left off the list because he daughter's shoe line has them made in China.
What I don't get is he's been railing against NATO for years, thinking the US is getting shafted by its allies, yet he doesn't even understand how it works.
He doesn't understand how anything works. he thinks he can learn everything to be known about nuclear weapons in 90 minutes.
He just does by instinct which bankrupts most of him companies.
He doesn't weigh the pros and cons of any decision.

Trump tells it like it is. He has no integrity and does not even pretend he has integrity. He almost seems proud that he has no integrity.

That is called being 'short-sighted.' Trump is extremely short-sighted. He is like a child who has no sense of time. There is no future and no past -- just what Trump feels at the moment. If he had any sense of future consequences or implications, he wouldn't have had to declare bankruptcy or have had so many failed businesses.
I just don't see how he has the nerve to yell at world leaders about not paying their debts, when Trump himself is famous for not paying his debts, loans, employees or even attorneys. How can anyone take his bullying BS seriously, when he's such a transparently hypocritical buffoon.

One minute of searching on Google is all it would take to completely decimate the premise of your OP. Your thread is worthless.
He has a money-filled life RIGHT NOW. He's using the presidency to steer money into his family coffers to an extent that no one ever would have imagined.
do you have proof of this? and even if he is doing it, every president has done it. being president is a wealth building job.

What country are you speaking of? The U.S. does not tax 50% at present. Perhaps you've been listening to the way Trump lies about the tax rates?
not at the federal level maybe, but lets not forget state and local taxes, property taxes, sales taxes, excise taxes, etc. not to mention all the fees the various governments collect, since they are just another form of taxation. up through the end of the obama years, the average american paid, when all was said and done and all the taxes they paid were added up, pretty close to 70% of their yearly income in taxes. remember much of the cost of a product you buy is loaded with hidden taxes that YOU ultimately pay when you buy the product, including the income taxes the companies that sell or make the products pay.
if you were to really get down and figure out all the taxes you pay when you buy a product, or service, and not just the openly listed taxes, you would likely no longer wonder why us conservatives keep calling for lower taxes.

How does it work? Please be detailed.
I assume you have deep intimate knowledge of NATO and economics to know that he doesn't know how it works.
When other countries don’t pay their fair share of a deal, you have to make it about the money.
That is the bottom line.
exactly right, bush and obama BOTH told NATO they need to pony up more for their own defense. the difference is that trump is the one saying it now and everyone is up in arms like they havent heard this before.
