What is really ridiculous on the part of the writer of the article at the top of this thread, is that he thinks the issue with respect to Obama, is Obama's ego. The issue with Obama is his lifelong hatred of the settler, multi-generational culture & heritage of those who founded America. Trump epitomizes the American answer to that Quisling like betrayal.
Absolutely. Just like my grandparents were immigrants. My father went to night school and got a 4-year degree from a commuter school at night.
His sons went to universities for their degrees. I’m a mildly successful businessman and investor. My sons go to Harvard. Their vistas, I can’t even imagine.
It’s the American way. Each generation builds on the one before. trump has done that very successfully. And what he will pass down to the next children is very good .
But he is not “self-made.” He is a son of privilege. He has built moderately successful on that privilege. He is not some super genius businessman, some galactic-sized negotiator or anything like that. He’s a good son. An American story. But not “self-made.”
It would be nice if he showed the proper humility that is his due.
