Have we ever had any candidate with so many business interests and income? I think of Rockefeller but he did’t make it — Roosevelt? Kennedy? but I think those 3 all just lived on family-provided income. Just thinking here at 8:30 in the morn.
Most presidents I can think of come from family money. I can’t think of a president that earned as much and has been as successful in business at Donald Trump. I think GWB was involved in business more than most. He co-owned the Texas Rangers for instance. But not anywhere near the scale of Trump.
