I actually trust a politician that was rich when they took office, much more than a politician who took office poor, and left rich.

Do you honestly think anyone in this forum knows a person who is/was a billionaire from birth?

I know very few millionaires and NONE of them were wealthy from birth.

I agree completely!


Think of this. Trump will leave office with far less wealth than he entered. Can't say the same for any of the slugs in Congress.

I trust no polticians, who so ever they may be.

I'd trust a cobra in some situations long before any poltician.

I agree. We have career politicians that have never done much in real life beyond pandering to the masses. I'd much rather vote for someone like Trump that has built and done amazing things over the decades. Yes he has had plenty of failures too but most business men in his position have experienced that as well.

Hillary on the other hand came in to politics as an attorney with Bill so they were a bit above Middle Class and she claims that when they left the White house they were flat broke but somehow over the years "feeding at the public trough" they were able to amass Millions. How does that happen?



I'd vote for a Trump type all day long over a Hillary type.
