Problem is, Queens-born Trump is the ultimate sucker for the gold-plated resumé/C.V.
I wonder how the heck those places people put in gold-plated resumes acquired their reputations.
As I look at the staffs of Presidents—Trump and Biden especially—it seems the resumes are gold plated, just like those Gold Buffaloes I see advertised on Fox News; they are plated with .0005 mil of REAL GOLD.
It seems we have a dearth of experience and talent in our country that is demonstrated by the Best and Brightest not being either.
