Divided by five makes $40 million each, as I said. He also ran and invested the trust money himself - that's how he started with his own work

His father died when Trump was 50 years old and had already established numerous properties of his own. How do you figure that the inheritance was his start? He started his own company in Manhattan in 1971. His father died in 1999.

Correction: Trump inherited $40 million at his father’s death, but was already 50 years old and very well established on his own.

Because his dad helped him with startup money, of course. And it was no doubt based on his share of the family estate, which was roughly $40 million. Good Lord, what do you think, he started penniless? What the hell are your even arguing?

LOL!

I lived in West Germany for 3 years, in Pirmasens. Not on base, but out in the community.

Germany isn't a bad place to live, but in no way does it realistically rate “Top Country”, IMO.

Has Rubio ever earned a dime in the private market?

I’ll take ‘cattle futures’ for a 100K prize.

These are the world’s best countries. (Sorry, America — you’re No. 4.)

Rubio is all about taking votes from Cruz.

Ok, it’s time for the gay little latin loverboy to exit stage left. I mean if Rubio isn’t unlikeable enough already, he looks like some sort of giggling little smarmy 9th grade brat running for class president when delivering these lines.

Trump will annihilate him in Florida and that will be that.
