Exactly.

I’ve read posts, here, from angry Floridians upset he took their (Gov donation) money and ran.

“Commitment should come before self ambition.”

Yes. Which is why I admire Trump’s commitment to America at the expense of an ambition to make a ton more money in the private sector.

IIRC, John Hancock was extremely wealthy — maybe the richest Founding Father in New England — and poured most of his fortune into helping create and bequeath the USA for US

Like Trump, early on he wasn’t extremely political and was focused on business and personal fortune. Then his focus moved to freedom.
