In a veiled shot at GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump , fellow billionaire Warren Buffett on Monday dismissed the real estate mogul's campaign slogan.

"There's no need to 'make America great again.' America is greater than it's ever been," Buffett said during a wide-ranging interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box." Buffett, a supporter of leading Democrat Hillary Clinton, said America is going to "become ever greater

“There’s no need to ‘make America great again.’ America is greater than it’s ever been,” Buffett said during a wide-ranging interview on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”

AND

“Should I change my Depends before or after BINGO? Or is it Art& Crafts today?”

If you’re a billionaire - with the entire political and media establishment bought and paid for and in your back pocket - then America is better than it ever has been.

The ONLY reason Buffett would say that is because HE is the one benefiting and benefiting VERY WELL as the demodummies keep the money flowing HIS WAY.

“Great” - is in the eye of the beholder - each person’s perspective.

Buffet may not find it so Great if much in his life is determined to go the way of wood hay and stubble.

For the ruling elites like Buffett of course America has never been better for THEM and them alone.

Same goes for so-called celebrites. DiCaprio jet setting across the world constantly on his plane and yacht and telling us we need to buckle down and take the hoaxal "climate change" seriously. How about Springsteen, Little Steven, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Cindi Lauper et al telling us we need to share bathrooms with perverts. Anyone bump into one of them at a Target store bathroom lately? Do as they say, not as they do - same as Obama every time.

Hillary was broke when she left the White House but with hard work and sincere and honest intentions she amassed a $2.5 billion dollar fortune in her foundation. Hell! she even has a tax free hedge fund in Columbia raking in the cash.

That is what Buffett is talking about!

And you too, you little people, can do it too. If you really want it, you too can make $2.5 billion with honesty and sincerity.

America is better than ever before!

This is also coming from the same guy who on one hand dodges taxes and then complains his secretary pays higher taxes than him.

At the very same time he received tax payer bail out money from the TARP. He is the biggest recipiant.

Buffette is as phony as a $3 bill.

Warren Buffett is a domestic economic terrorist who needs to be dancing at the end of a rope tied to a lamppost in downtown Omaha.

“There’s no need to ‘make America great again.’ America is greater than it’s ever been,”

POS Buffett is speaking for the hoards of invaders. All is going to plan for him and his fellow One World Order regime. The standard of living for U.S. citizens will decline as the millions of illegal invaders have their standard increase. They see Trump as a roadblock that needs to be removed at all costs.
