Making lots o’ money in a phenomenal accomplishment.

It’s a not much of a qualifier to be President though. Nor does not relying on donations from others to fund your campaign convey some kind of moral superiority.

Not taking a salary would be a beautiful gesture, but just that, a gesture, the President’s salary is a meaningless drop in the bucket.

One characteristic about him that IS pertinent is his capability to negotiate. This is what in business is called “transferable skill.”

A President Trump would be, at the least, the least wimpy GOP president since Reagan, maybe even before.

With all due respect, I disagree. Making an “enormous amount of money” is a qualifier. Trump had to be a business genius to do that, particularly in Marxist/Socialist New York. I love and prefer CRUZ but I will take Trump if that’s how the cookie crumbles.

As for “moral superiority” re self funding, I agree. But, let’s not discount it completely which is what you seem to be doing.

Please share with us if you will which candidate you prefer, Democrat or Republican?

It is if it is all accomplished before being elected president.

Otherwise I would call it a grand scope of felonies...
