At the beginning Trump could have been described as an idle billionaire looking to spend his money, personally I though he wouldn’t amount to anything as a candidate, obviously he proved me and many others completely wrong.
Yes, he had name recognition, but had a checkered past, including multiple marriages and contributing to Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumer and many others.
Before we condemn these potential candidates let’s see what type of makeup they have first.
Unfortunately it always seems for every self-funder like Trump we get 10 self-funders like Romney.
