"Personal expenses" such as what? Campaign expenses, such as travel, lodging, food, etc. is not "personal expenses". Hell, even phones and other tech are fine.

In 2016 Trump flew all over the country in his private jet. He had a massive campaign expense regarding the costs of flying and crewing that jet back and forth between all those events. Is that now a "personal expense" just because he happened to own the jet?

It's funny that when Obama left it became all about Trump. Now that Trump's out, it's all about... Trump. Rather than talking about the guy who's NOT President, can you tell me what the 28 Executive Orders signed in the last 17 days by President Biden contain? I'm familiar with a few, but it's getting hard to keep up.

Looks like Trump's a shitty politician, based on that metric. Don't we want American success stories? Seems like the Clintons are people to admire.

Fair enough. So you're telling me that a politician lied. Am I supposed to be shocked? Or am I supposed to be shocked that people were stupid enough to believe the lie that was promoted by the "trusted news"?

Trump has lied about his net worth his entire life, dumb meme because it can't be verified.
Clintons got rich off books and speaking tours, ditto Obama.

I think the major difference has been the targeting of Trump family business via political opposition, vs a lack of such targeting of Obama/Clinton assets.

The only notable targeting I recall off the top of my head (correct me if I'm wrong) of Obama/Clinton would be the Clinton Foundation as a valid charitable organization. :)

If they have no business to speak of, how'd they wind up with $100m?

I mean, that's a lot of money for speaking/book tours, especially as most "speaking" was at educational (aka government) facilities, and the books only netted a fraction of that total. *shrug*
