When Trump talks about his money it reminds me a lot of when Oprah gave away all those cars to her audience.

Find out later that she did not purchase the cars for those people, it was a marketing and advertising ploy by the car maker.

It cost her nothing to "give away new cars." She did them a favor that really cost her nothing or next to nothing. Sorta like walking around chump change.

Trump represents the Oprah-nization of American politics.

And then the people that got the cars were mad when they found out they had to pay taxes for the gift. Lol

And didn’t she also burden the recipients with some big income tax bills? If I remember correctly, many of them found it would cost them too much to accept the cars.
