    I’d wager that you couldn’t do it. You’d piss it away. You wouldn’t see any need to try to expand on it. But then you are one of those who are part of the entitlement class.

    How many people did he employ instead, and what did that contribute to the tax base?

    Lol. Yes, he ran a bunch of businesses into the ground and squandered billions of dollars just to create jobs.

    That has already been debunked. Might have been possible if he didn’t spend any money for anything like food, transportation, or housing.
    When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.

    When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.

    And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.

    War is peace.

    Freedom is slavery.

    Ignorance is strength.

    No, it hasn’t. Those claims were based on vastly lower guesses as to how much he got from his father. Tax records show that he got about ten times more than the 40 million originally estimated.

    It is genuinely laughable that you clowns believe that Trump was a “successful business owner” before his TV game show pretended that he was.

    Ok, Wang (Chinese for Dick) sees zero benefit to the tax base with Trump employees.

    I see your post above, I did to realize that Trump was over 130 years old he looks Great, you see that is how old he would have to be for those investments to equal his current net worth.

    Richard you just don't have a Clue. He employs over 22,000 people, not counting sub-contractors. You would be broke by now if you father gave you money, and you refuse to admit that Trump was already rich when he inherited his fathers money.

    You really need help the people that create wealth are generally not liberal, unless they are using government contracts like Buffet to get the job done! Anyone in Business will have things that succeed and those that fail. it is the taking of those chances that make you rich.

    I am guessing That if you had a real job, and were required to produce profits for the company you would only be there 90 days. You just have that slave mentality.
