You can post all you want about some of Trump's so called failures. Just since it's not called a business, the failures of the last half dozen presidents we've had a long the way can also easily be documented. Just because they were running a country and supposedly not a business, it's in some ways even worse. The bankruptcies he applied when necessary were tools to keep the businesses running forward. With the country the government just prints more money. How nice. The easy way out.

Kinda like the electric company that was the cause of the Paradise fire. They filed bankruptcy but were any Officials or Executives fired or did they get bonuses? Bankruptcy is used by many companies as a way to keep their doors open, keep employees working and keep making money.

He's a billionaire..... are you???? And he didn't make his money doing pay for play like 90% of politicians do.

You exhibit a stunning lack of understanding about business, government, and Federal Reserve monetary policy, all three.

1. You have no actual knowledge of his net worth
2. You don’t know how he got whatever he has
3. Is money really your top metric for success in life? Sad.

Yeah, I don't care for Kamala, either, especially her attack on Biden and also her goofy attempts at being relatable, such as when she laughs at her own comments and tries to appear so very folksy. Although she is not without talent, her skill set seems best suited to the Senate, in my opinion. As a former prosecutor, she is skilled at interrogating witnesses.

I am a moderate Democrat and I vote that way, usually. As for the other candidates who are not Californians, I prefer to discuss them in the Elections or POC forums.

I know enough to know he's a billionaire from real estate. I never said money was my top metric but it's up there. People living on the streets or in cars aren't very successful in life generally
