>> Whereas Trump is a dabbler with a very mixed business record

Really?

He’s a billionaire. Is he not? Even after sacrificing a bunch of his wealth fighting for America, he’s still worth a billion bucks. If that’s the result of a “very mixed business record”, I’ll happily aspire to having a “mixed business record” myself!

Or are you saying that he wins some, loses some? Isn’t that the nature of a risk-taking entrepreneur? Again, he’s a billionaire, so he must have won more than he lost.

Maybe you should clarify just what the hell you ARE saying, or implying.

And how about you, polymath? How do you stack up? How many billions have YOU made with your superb freepoing and never-trumper denigration skills?

[He’s a billionaire. ]


Trump’s late father is said to have transferred hundreds of millions to him via companies that lent him money without requiring repayment. On balance, he’s done better than most children of the very wealthy, in terms of building upon the wealth he inherited. For instance, unlike Trump, Bloomberg’s and Gates’s children will never make 10x what they received through running an actual business.

But as an entrepreneur, he’s mediocre, at best. The trail of busted businesses he’s helmed is a long one.
