Yeah, only worth $2.4 billion, has a presidential pension, and in-laws worth $400 million, what a failure. How is he suppose to retire?

So TERRIBLE, he turned a few millions into BILLIONS.

You WISH you were such "a terrible businessman."
Trump inherited more than $400 million. He could have put that into an S&P 500 index fund and done better than he did in business. Without that massive inheritance he would have been back in Queens selling used cars.

A lot of people with $400M weren’t able to rise to level of power/fame Trump has. He has parlayed whatever hand he was given into being the most discussed living person to ever exist.

Trump's 15 minutes is up. Watch as he fades into obscurity.

Criticizing Trump doesn’t made someone a Democrat, nor a Biden voter.

Everything isn’t ‘Us vs. Them’.
It’s not deflection, it’s truth.

Waiting on Trump to fade into obscurity and/or be locked up sure is time consuming.

A poor attempt to "move the goalposts", as they say.

The TDSers on here are complaining that Trump made money. YOUR POST, " "#2 - It is definitely "wrong" in my opinion and it has nothing to do with Trump, per se

"The amount of money does not matter. It is either OK to charge the SS or it is NOT.

Post FAIL!

Bloomberg (he’s been a D, an R, and an independent)



^^^^^ All an irrelevant deflection.

Before the election, he should have said he wouldn’t release them and let the chips fall where they may politically. But he was too much of a coward and too lacking in integrity to do that. Instead he lied and never did release them, just one of his displays of a lack of integrity.



There’s no such thing as TDS.

It’s not in the DSM, and it never will be.

It’s a made up acronym used by some Trump supporters to make themselves feel better.
Your entire post is a deflection!
