Solomon had everything too. In the end it ain’t worth nothing. Trump is playing the winning hand with his creator.
Good post. Good reminder.
All I’m saying is Trump is running for President because he wants to help the country...He’s not running for power or money - he has both already.

Media: Jeb Bush want’s a no-fly zone in Syria?
Trump: When did ISIS get airplanes?
Media: You can’t build a wall?
Trump: I build things, that’s what I do - watch me!
Media: You’re going to deport 11 million people. You’ll need a “deportation force”.
Trump: What does I.C.E do?
And on and on it goes. Simple cut-to-the-chase responses with total fearless ownership of any downside from a policy proposal.
Media: But you used to be a Democrat, you have donated to Democrats?
Trump: Yes, I live and work in New York. NYC is all Democrats, if I need to leverage assistance for my company goals I need to work with Democrats. It’s a business necessity; I look out for my employees and their best interests.
Media: But you had Hillary Clinton at your wedding?
Trump: Yes, it was an amazing event, the best, the biggest, the most elegant, and I asked her and Bill to attend. They did. Wouldn’t you, I mean if I invited you?
Media: You spend all this time talking about polls. You seem obsessed by polls?
Trump: Yeah, that’s because I’m winning them. If the polls were not good, I wouldn’t even mention them. Duh.
When you compare how Trump owns the so-called “negatives”, you immediately recognize they are only negatives if he allows them to be. Thus, he doesn’t let them be issues - he owns them, and says “yeah, so?”
Trump has spent decades with Park Row media types. He has never avoided them, he totally understands how they operate - and more importantly “why”?
The most stark contrast is Donald Trump when contrast against others in the race like Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. Like Trump they all have historical issues and/or policy proposals with severe downsides. However, unlike Trump - Bush, Rubio and Cruz keep trying to play the game of avoiding their history (as if it doesn’t exist) and downsides from policy.
Imagine if Jeb Bush said: “hey, I know Super-PACs are a bad idea, but without them I wouldn’t stand a chance”.
Imagine if Marco Rubio said: “hey look, the reason I supported the gang-of-eight was because I was a freshman senator and their offer made me feel superior, like I was an important and influential member of the Senate - it was a massive ego boost”.
