Oh, I respect what Trump has done in business. I have absolutely zero interest in seeing him anywhere near the Oval Office, but I respect what he has done as a businessman. Great dealmaker, sure.

I just have a hard time calling someone with his background “self made.”

I think someone who can get into the ring and change the entire national presidential election conversation and sustain it, and bring it forward on the merits of power level money, street smarts and tactics is rare.

Name anyone.

I see it as something he achieved. He took his father’s inheritance and grew it exponentially.

You put a price on that. If it’s $100 form a Cuban refugee to a son who makes it big in Law and State government or $200 mil to a son who makes it huge in real estate ventures the percentages are not even equal. Trump made more money.

Who made him, if he’s not self made?

But the real question is, why, on a conservative website forum such as this, does anyone come out and harass me for what I am thinking. I think he’s self made. You don’t.

what totalitarian idea gives you the right to bug the crap out of me for just saying he’s self made?

He is.

You don’t think he is.

Why do you have to try to back me down from my idea?

Come up with your own.

Smart and successful people often have smart and successful children.

It’s genetics and upbringing.

He is not there yet and I am still not convinced he really wants the job. Trump is doing great things by bringing these subjects up and making the politicians and media talk about them, Rush said today that DiFi spoke out against sanctuary cities, which I don’t think she would have done if it weren’t for Trump. I do not think anybody would be talking about immigration at all this election if it were not for Trump. I am glad he is running right now and intend to enjoy the show.
