Rubio: Trump would be 'selling watches' if not for inheritance

Can someone explain the Rubio candidacy to me?

He is, and always has been, the Cheap Labor Express' 'backup boy'. He is now center stage only because Jeb Bush is out of the race...

That was the total of the entire estate. Divide that by five children. Also, his mother was still alive, so she inherited most or control of the estate. Trump was already a multimillionaire when his father died. Worth much more than his father. So, nice try....but you fail with your class envy.

Actually the estate was estimated at $200 million dollars. Divided by five makes $40 million each, as I said. He also ran and invested the trust money himself - that's how he started with his own work And also as I said, in any event, $40 million is a lot of money - period. That's not class envy, it's a very simple fact which I have complete confidence is totally agreed upon by at least 6.9 billion people on this planet.

What is wrong with you, to contest these easily researched and obvious issues? Trump is a skilled and successful businessman, but he doesn't walk on water, and he doesn't have to - not even for you.

Read the parable of the talents in Matthew. Trump did not bury them in a hole in the ground, nor just leave them accumulating interest. Nor did he try to destroy America with Third World Immigration, like Ted Kennedy did

All granted, but where did I say different? Ask I said was he started out with a lot of money, because he did. $40 million dollars is a sweet bankroll. The rest he did on his own, but on top of that, and it came from his dad.

"Women report that they, as well as children, have been raped or subjected to sexual assault. As a result, many women sleep in their street clothes. Women regularly report that they do not use the toilet at night because of the danger of rape and robbery on the way to the sanitary facilities. Even during daylight, passing through the camp is a frightful situation for many women.

That's a tough number to calculate.

Crazy seeing so-called conservatives here lapping up the drivel that the amnesty PAC paid, career politicians spew, isn’t it? Used to be that self-made, successful business owners were admired, not shunned, here. Who wants to be governed by lobbyist/special interest/Open Border hacks? It’s unreal to see the defense of these hacks, here.

These two yapping Chihuahua's destroyed the 'conservative' ideology tonight. A complete and total disgrace. No wonder the liberal progressives play the Republicans like a finely tuned Stradivarius and take US to the cleaners... I was repulsed by the both of them.

Right....he was already a multimillionaire before he inherited that. The key is...he’s self made and successful on his own...without a cushy government/career politician job, like the majority of Congress. The Trump’s did it the old fashioned way....the earned it ;-)

Glad you support Trump. Smart, you are :-)

Rube & Liar have only earned OPM....other people’s money.

They are dependent on amnesty supporting PACs.

Tells me where their investment and interest is.

"Trump is the only non-politician in the race"

Trump has never held elective office, but he is a politician.

Uh, Trump already released his Financial Statements.

Tax Returns merely show Income, not Net Worth.

Are you demanding to see Obama’s College Records, Hillary's Tax Returns or even the Tax Returns of anyone else running, DemoncRat or Republican?

The easiest Tax Return to review would be Bernie Sanders, he probably just Files a 1040 EZ.
