The truest judge of ones character is how he acts towards others when he thinks no one else is watching.

If you can be very honest with yourself then just ponder what you would be like if you were completely above the law.

I swear before God that I would not be any different than I am now.

Our constitution and laws are for a righteous and God loving populace, it would fail with any other sort of population.

I am also a firm believer that you can judge a man by how he treats those who cannot help him in any way, those he considers beneath himself. i.e. How do you treat people like waiters and maids???

I try to make everyone around me as comfortable and happy as possible...all the time, it's the way I live my life.

= = = = = = = = =
I didn’t make that clear about how do you treat people that may be ‘below you’ in stature—ie maids, garbage collectors, waiters, waitresses etc when no one is ‘watching’.

I did and if everyone who checks in here and has not donated yet, would give even $20, it would add up and get this over the top!

I don’t know what we’d do without FR.. and Jim and John need to hear from all of us!

He is donating a million of his own money? AND he takes no paycheck for being President, instead donating it to charity? The evil of this man knows no bounds!!!

I tell you, Democrats are massively massively massively screwing themselves in the worst possible way by this constant Trump bashing, constant protests, the fake accusations, investigations on and on and on. The average American is not a freakin’ moron, they can see exactly what is going on here - That the Democrap party has been taken over by absolute over the top utter lunatics and guess what? There is not a chance in hell the average person is going to want THAT in office. I really believe the Democratic party is going to literally self destruct in the coming years, heck Repubs may even take Cali and New York. Now if we could just get rid of the RINOs!

And he still gets criticized. Saw a headline this morning saying that he once said a million dollars was just a small loan.

How are they going to square it with no other president giving such a sum for a local disaster - that we know of anyway? Oh! They’ll find a way, I’m sure. Pikers!

Has anyone heard from Jeff Bezos, Zuckerberg or any of the billionaires in Silicon Valley???

Jeff Bezos grew up in Houston. I met him there once when he was a child.

AOL has already noted on one of their click bait “news” items that Hollywood “celebrities” have matched President Trump’s donation.

***

4d chess, if that’s still an acceptable meme.

For a 1 mil investment, you shame the Hollywood weirdos into ponying up for Texas relief, multiplying your initial investment with a load of cash right from lefty central.
