Oh man. What an insult.

The creator of Beavis and Butthead made a hilarious satire warning us about Trumpers like you.

Sam Zell started with nothing and was worth over 5 billion. He lived like a billionaire. Every year he would have a birthday party for 150 of his closest friends. One year he had the Eagles play at his party. Another year Aretha Franklin. He also had three wives. Most billionaires live like billionaires with the exception of Warren Buffet. I don't get the motivation to portray Trump as some great businessman when he is not.

The question is whether Trump a good businessman.

If he can't beat the S&P, then I believe he is not a very sharp businessman. I get he likes the attention and that is his motivation to work. Just because he likes to work does not mean he is any good at it.

Easy to claim from the cheap seats. What’s your brand name? How many golf courses do you own? Any gold staircases? Realistically until he ran for President he was a rock star to many people, including democrats. I never cared for him, but it’s BS to claim he should have done this or that.

Sam Zell is great. Sam Zell supported Donald Trump and much preferred Trumps policies to Obama’s policies. You should try to be more like Sam.

You, Train, and Icky have a daddy problem. You have obvious disdain for Trump because he had a successful parent. It is just one of the realities of life that some people have a built in advantage. Train thinks the rich kids get into the top schools on merit. It has nothing to do with their name or a donation. The rest of us know better.

I have pointed out the flaw in this numerous times. They do not account for a guy that flies around in a jumbo jet and lives the lifestyle of a billionaire. They do not account for divorce settlements. They just assume an inheritance that was never touched and compounded. That model works only in fantasyland.

Even with all of that said, he outperformed the S&P according to Forbes until about 2021.

People are easily sold some nonsense

I know when my net worth is calculated, I get a value for all of my restricted stock. So, if we add in his restricted stock he is probably up again. Subtract from the S&P model his high cost of living and settlements and it is probably not very close.

So, this liberal charade is mostly bogus.

I didn’t say his job was pathetic. I have friends in law enforcement. I simply said I could do it in 6 months, which is true.

I’ve got a great life. I’m quite happy. I use curse words to get the point across, not because I’m angry. It appears to have worked because you’ve written me several love letters now.

Get some sleep. You wasted a Friday night ranting about your orange calf and a vaccine from 3 years ago.

You are a broken human being who isn’t enough of a man to defend himself if you talked this shit in person.

Again, I don’t know why you are broken, but you are.

My parents are far more successful than you too. As am I. Which is the cherry of top of this shit sundae of your idiotic post.

So the Walton children are great businesspeople? Trump is a billionaire because in today’s dollars his father was one and handed him the company. He nearly destroyed it once, but he did better when he became a marketer. Note the Chicago project where Trump lost hundreds of millions involved actual performance, Trump not so good at that, much better at branding.

You voted for Trump in the primary. I don’t give a rat’s ass you think he’s better than Biden or not, I’m fine with that opinion. I’m not fine with (a) the GOP voters who can’t quit a freak show and (b) defending his indefensible behavior because you feel the need to justify your support.

If it were me and I were a Trump supporter, I’d say the guy sucks huge balls but is better on policy. It seems like more defensible than what every argument around here details, Trump’s character.
