Mr. Trump often presents the idea that he is more virtuous than the other candidates because he is self funding but I am not sure that logic holds. It is simply a fact that he is financially able to do so while the other candidates are not. Virtue or honesty has little to do with it.

It could be argued that Mr. Trump is less accountable than the other candidates because he is funded by one billionaire. If any of the other candidates received their complete financial support from a single super rich businessman, they would be pilloried to no end.

If we have reached the point that wealth is a determining qualification for the presidency, we might need to look for one of our really, really rich individuals such as Bill Gates or Warren Buffett.

Your comment rates as one of the top five “most clueless” I have encountered in all my years here.
