For those who believe Trump’s wealth is a “problem”
I’d respectfully remind folks that, with just a few exceptions, the men who crafted and signed the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution were near the TOP OF THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC SCALE for their time!
Like Trump, nearly all were motivated by their desire for FREEDOM from a despotic tyrant. Most of them paid DEARLY for their rebellion. Near the end of his life, Jefferson’s absence from his beloved Monticello caused his finances to be so damaged that Congress offered to purchase his magnificent and extensive library. That purchase was the nucleus for today’s Library of Congress.
If you do not know the history of the prices paid by those architects of the freedoms we today take for granted – and are in the process of allowing to be taken away by the tyrants of today – their stories are at the link below. Please take the time to review them!
As the authors of this site comment, some of these stories may or may not be completely accurate. That said, it’s safe to say that their lives would have been far less difficult if they had – to use the language of many of the tyrants now infesting the Beltway and other power centers in 2016 – simply “Gone along to Get along”. And we’d probably STILL be singing “Hail to the Queen”.

I don’t think Trump’s wealth is a problem.
It’s what he did with his money that’s a bit of a problem.
If we were still singing Hail to the Queen, slavery would have been abolished in 1825 and there would have been no civil war.
