What is your point? I grow up poor as shit with a single, illiterate, poor as shit mother and I agree with mr."ignorant". If you take a bunch of people who make 50k a year and have a family and can't scrape together enough money that is by someones own doing. It's not magic. Shitty stuff happens to some people, not all, and many people who do have shitty circumstances can overcome believe it or not.


What do you think my background is?

but every single day you're cool with a silver spoon fed heavily stunted manbaby that has shown no competency that would suggest he would thrive let alone survive in even an average struggle American scenario?


trump was able to improve his life. yes, fate handed him an excellent hand, but he played it well.

- is a billionaire
- his last name has become synonymous with "successful and rich businessman"
- has super decent kids
- has banged a sheer endless parade of super hot models and actresses that a normal man can only dream of
- celebrity and media darling, has all the attention in the world
- has been grandiloquently flirting with running for president for decades, and when he finally went through with it, he pulled it off against a unified front of all the political, cultural, intellectual and media elites in the country

you might not like him, criticize his actions and decisions and yes, he might have been a damn lucky fool throught his entire life, but still... you just cannot achieve all of that without having some skills of sorts.

So 30 year old male making 50k a year with 3 kids and mom staying at home to take care of them isnt successful enough to represent his constituents?

Because I doubt somebody in that situation could afford to immediately move to DC and go a month without pay.

Yeah, far from the current situation, but just illustrates why its a bad argument. Argue on actual merit of ideas instead of accident of birth.

You forgot

-If he hadn't been bailed out by his father three or four times would have failed and he would have fallen into obscurity

Trump has had the success of a monkey throwing darts at a wall, if that monkey got a do-over every time he missed.

even someone like that should have some savings in the bank.

I mean, seriously folks, come on: if you have 3 kids and not even enough savings to go a single month without pay, you're highly irresponsible.

If I inherited a half a billion and all my father's work, contacts, and opportunity that I was handed from birth I'd be able to do all that shit that I don't care about above as well and much less embarrassingly than he has

No that is his position, which is a perfectly fine position to have. You making the point that he is ignorant because he hasn't been in that situation is dumb. That was my point. Although since I believe you are referring to the bug-eyed socialist, she is certainly not qualified and absolutely has enough money to do so
as per her mid 5 figure stock allocations would seem to suggest.

Same, in fact I'd do triple! Good thing there's no way to prove it right? Get the fuck out of here. You'd probably be drunk wrapped around a lamppost because that's where fools end up.
