I don't know if it's true, but it shouldn't surprise anybody that it's suggested. We're talking about people with arguably more resources than the president for personal vendettas at their disposal, and with MUCH less scrutiny.
I also never said it was true, I said according to some wealthy acquaintances of mine. There's a world of difference between me insisting that billionaires are all murders and quoting somebody.
I consider Trump to be slightly less likely to kill somebody than, say, Steve Jobs.
Or Jim Webb
What's Trump's great power nobody else has? Trump can give you a dirty insult that sticks, which destroys your status and reputation and makes people respect you less. Crooked Hillary, Heartless Hillary, Crazy Bernie, Low Energy Jeb, Goofy Elizabeth Warren, Pocahontas, Crazy Megyn.
That's a powerfully persuasive and nonviolent trick he learned.
Has Trump killed somebody? I don't know. I give it a maybe.
He has obvious mob connections in real estate. Once you're big and powerful enough, that's an unavoidable cost of doing business. It's par the course.
Food for though. If you've paid taxes, your hands are dirty too. Obama uses your money to frag brown people in the Middle East. Innocent children have been murdered in cold blood.
Philosophically, what makes one person morally culpable for despicable behavior?
Who is morally culpable for what, why?
Do you have to point the gun at somebody's head and watch them die to be responsible for bloodshed and mayhem?
