  I've always maintained that his wealth, like everything else about him, was greatly exaggerated. He came back from Russia with a $300 million loan from DeutcheBank  (funny how that works) and given his losses, there's little indication he's had the cash to pay it back.
  Maybe he got some debt relief for giving Anna de Rothschild, aka Inna Yashchyshyn, the missing classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.
context: He’s trashy and not a good fighter. >
  
  Babbit was also trashy and a bad fighter 😂 >
  
  She was good insofar as she led a one-woman suicide charge. >
  
  She was breaking through the window and screaming with the crowd "There they are, get them," despite the officer saying stop several times, just so she could sit down and hold a peaceful protest. That's the MAGA and Fox News version of events. They practically said that the doors and windows just started breaking all by themselves. >
  
  Wait, I thought MAGA said she was an antifa crisis actor.
  And peaceful tourist.
  And brave 1776 freedom fighter.
  And MAGA darling.
  But definitely antifa. >
  
  He looks down on his poor and poorly educated supporters. >
  
  Remembering that time Trump got on stage and proudly proclaimed "I love the poorly educated!"...   and the poorly educated cheered back
  Edit:  and reminded further down the thread about how Trump followed up those cheers by proclaiming they were 'the most loyal people'....   And those same loyal, poorly educated cheered back even louder >
  
  That was one of those that's it, there's no way he's getting elected moments for me (like most people, I had several).
  I understand that there's a strong constituency for anti-intellectualism in the country, and really always has been, but that remark was straight up insulting. And typically, people don't vote for someone they think is insulting them no matter the quality of their education.
  There was no promise of getting they themselves better education or making sure that their kids are better educated than they were. Instead, it was an implicit guarantee that he will do everything he can to make sure their kids are at least as poorly educated as they are, so that they will all continue to be "loved."
  ed to add: And they fucking ate it up and begged for more. >
  
  You misunderstand the right wing. The people here (in the south, for me, but it goes the same for all right leaning places) are proud to be uneducated. They take pride in working hard in blue collar jobs. They don’t see they are in a dystopian nightmare, providing hard labor to benefit only the rich. Many, many blue collar people here own their own businesses and think they are rich while making $70-100K a year. They don’t think they’re underpaid for what they’re doing. They are uneducated enough to think that if they’re working that hard, the really rich people must be working that much harder. Even people on the left have a hard time understanding just how big the wealth gap is and how much more really rich people make.
  The fact that blue collar workers frequently make as much or more as college educated people now makes this divide even worse. They see college educated people as suckers who should’ve worked harder instead of trying to be better than them. >
  
  Good, I'm glad someone else posted this. It's really mind opening. >
  
  It should be mind blowing that most of those people are liberals. Supposedly >
  
  99.9% of the people who support him would not be allowed to stay at Mar-a-Lago, even if they could afford it. >
  
  This right here. >
  
  They poo'd on the walls >
  
  Actually, poo’d on the floor, picked it up with their hands, then spread it on the walls. Important distinction. 
  “The Ignorant and Unwashed” is a new descriptor, I understand. >
  
  Seriously that's nasty why would you pick up shit with your bare hands like I'm a goddamn dog walker and I would never pick up feces not using a bag or gloves what the fuck >
  
  Todd Rundgren did a song called "Piss Aaron". I always assumed it was a joke song, but who knows? Maybe it was real hahaha. >
  
  The idiots in his cult still think he doesn’t despise their very existence. Ironically he thinks they’re the trashy ones, if only he was capable of taking a clear look in the mirror. He epitomizes trashy. He’s fake. He’s cheap. Trashy. >
  
  Thank you for finding the perfect word for Trump.  He is a vulgarian, not only figuratively vulgar but also physically. >
  
  He hates his base. It will always bother him that billionaires and Hollywood elites never let him into their club. >
  
  Look up "Small Potatoes = The History of the USFL"
  tl, dr = Some investors came up with the idea of having a summer football league.  It wouldn't go head to head with the NFL; it would play in the NFL off season.
  Things were going great until Trump came in and brought a team, then tried to muscle his way into the NFL.  He was banned from the big boys and ruined the USFL for everyone else.
  No end of stories.  Literally. >
  
  Yeah, I remember the USFL, Sports Illustrated crucified him at the time.   How anyone takes this guy seriously is beyond me.  I forgot, it's all Mark Burnett's fault, the first season of the Apprentice, Trump was more of a clueless Dilbert-style boss who wasn't in on the joke, and was the walking-talking punchline, but season 2, they decided to turn him into a business hero, and here we are now. >
  
  He lost his home district by 90% of the vote.
  Usually, the 'favorite son' candidate sweeps their home town. >
  
  Who is he to talk? He wears the same cheap looking ill fitted suit with every day. >
  
  It’s an expensive suit he refuses to get tailored. That’s why it looks cheap and trashy. >
  
  With 1980s power suit shoulder pads to 'disguise' his weight and lifts in his shoes. >
  
  So. Not Antifa? Jesus this is so exhausting. >
  
  When TRUMP calls you trashy….damn. >
  
  While they're wearing HIS merch that they paid him money for.
   It also means Trump is saying Trump merch is trashy. >
  
  You're not wrong >
  
  That's right, MAGA Republicans. The woman shot in the head by capital police breaching the Capitol for YOUR president was nothing but trash to him... But she was a good fighter, at least, right? >
  
  And him? Trashy but rich and cowardly. (to the bunker!) >
  
  
  Trashy but rich and cowardly.
  
  And from what I've seen of his tax returns, the rich part is open to question.
