If you gave a real business man 400 million 1980’s dollars he’d have turned it in to more than a couple billion for sure.

This needs to be broadcast loudly. Not only are republicans traditionally bad for the economy over their term with their tax cuts and soaring deficits, Trump is worse hundredfold. Why people assume Trump would be strong on the economy is a mystery.

I think it’s been pretty well documented that his inheritance would have done better in an index fund versus what he did with it (according to his own tax returns and such).

If he put Daddy’s money in an index fund and reinvested the dividends, he would have about $15 billion by now.
And I thought I was bad with money in my teens.

It’s not surprising given Trump’s history with bankruptcy and financial issues.

JFC, all you have to do is listen to him speak. Cheeto is dumb as a stump. Bluster only goes so far.

It’s crazy, if my dad gave me 400mil, I’d be careful with it. Not waste it like him

I don’t know if I will ever forgive Mark Burnett for The Apprentice. If not for that show, Trump would be viewed as a failed businessman who squandered his inheritance. End of story. Instead Trump was able to cultivate his image as a successful businessman and entrepreneur. Thanks, Mark.

1/3 of wealth comes from hard work…2/3 comes from inheritance interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons…and what I do…stock and real estate speculation….I create nothing. I own. Gordon gekkop

“Bankrupt” and “Casino”
None of this is revelatory to anyone who heard those two words together in this context.

That’s why he and Leon get along well. Similar stellar objects.

Trump is the physical manifestation of fake news, disinformation and misinformation. I don’t believe a single word he ever says and never will.

Donald Trump never misses an opportunity to steal from Americans.

For the life of me, I can’t understand how anyone can think he’s a sharp businessman considering his whole shtick was luxury branding and now the name “Trump” is firmly associated with lower class yahoo’s and his signs and stickers are frequently plastered all over blighted properties and rusted out 2003 Chevy shitboxes.

Trump is a sellout. He made his money by collecting royalties from slapping his name on everything, hundreds of millions from the Apprentice, and hundreds of millions from daddies inheritance. Almost none of his wealth is from building things. He’s a con man that got lucky and he’s conned half of America.

His business school grades were off the charts !
His next big money maker will be a book of nude photos of himself and some with melangia.

He’s too much of an arrogant twat to be successful. You need talented people around you to be successful and he can’t tolerate anyone being smarter or more accomplished than his is. After really seeing his public personality I can completely understand how he fucked it up. No one of any real value wants to be around him for very long.

This is also expounded upon in Mary Trump’s book, if anyone is curious/interested.

Was? Still is, if he had done nothing with that money, just let interest grow he would be worth billions. Real money not the fake numbers he keeps pretending he has.

He’s a hole of some kind, for sure.

Trump is a black hole for America. He and his family hijacked the Republican party to skim donations. Theres nothing wrong with America except Trump and his family of gifters. America’s Republican candidate has a convicted felon running for President. He was convicted of fraud. More charges coming. There is no country better than America and Trump has MAGA followers convinced our country will be destroyed. These fools give him money and support his unethical and immoral behavior. Lets just hope Trumps Open Zipper politics and hateful rhetoric convince American votes he is the black hole we have no tolerance for. Patriots wont vote for Trump. Lets all watch him crumble election night!

One of the great underrated points in the debate for Harris was when she pointed out Trump was given millions and had 6 bankruptcies.
It’s not a lie and should be pointed out daily to his minions who think he’s some sort of amazing business man.
