No, but a net worth of $100m is not out of the ordinary for a man of his abilities. Many people still think that one hundred mil is this scary huge figure, but it actually doesnt really prove that he went into politics to enrich himself, nor does it prove that he was a particularly corrupt president.
The Clintons, on the other hand...

I see your point now, you think he was bound to get it regardless of the profession he chose because of how qualified of a individual he is (and his wife)
That maybe true but being POTUS should add to opportunities for major wealth gains. Maybe after they can use their influence perhaps but going in to office and coming out 100x richer is broken asf

They didn't come out with 100 million, that's what they have now.
Also 600k a year well invested will make a lot of money.

They came out vastly richer than they were before...there's a serious problem with that imo

Not saying it's their fault necessarily.. I more blame the system

Trump took 1$ per year as the salary and donated thousands more.

Obama also passed legislation on Simon and Schuster which is pretty obvious pay for play.

What system? You are making no sense. They received book and appearance deals post-election and earned their way to 100 mil. They don't owe you any explanation and they sure as hell shouldn't feel guilty you white trash trumper. Focus on yourself for a change instead of envying others who are better than you in every aspect of life.

Trump was born with a silver spoon in his ass.

The presidency and the many perks it entails like attention and prestige is worth more than whatever Saint Trump has to give . I'm sure he's in agony at the moment - Twitter was like the quintessential male child he never had. 400k a year is like a thousand bucks to him lol chill with the hyperboles on how philantrophic the narcissist in chief is.

I like how you're defending these presidents with 10s of millions of dollars when biden can't even get minimum wage to $15 but his son still owns 10% is some major chinese firm
