So all this talk about inheriting a fortune and not making it on his own is so much balderdash.

However, all this talk IS TRUE that the only reason we have even heard of Donald Trump (let alone perceive him as a brilliant fix-all) is because "genius businessman" is Trump's brand image as marketed via the MSM for the past 10 years or so.

The reason we have never heard of businessmen considerably more brilliant and financially successful than Trump, better wheelers-and-dealers with YUGELY greater vision, is because they declined to pursue celebrity status through the MSM.

I see the changes in emphasis and the answer it still the same.

Any of those other people were welcome to join the race. I may have liked one of them better.

Why are some of you so convinced a Trump supporter doesn’t think and is solely supporting him because of his notoriety?

It’s an angle that is frankly, silly. I have looked at Trump’s platform, have considered what was behind much of his past actions, and find myself fully in support of him.

Look at that family and try to convince me he’s some sort of monster. It’s just not selling Finny.

The other richer Billionaires have the personality of a dud, such as Bill Gates, George Soros, Warren Buffet etc. They could not keep 10,000 people in 100 different rallies enthusiastically interested for over an hour each, without using a teleprompter. So the comparison is meaningless.

Adolf Hitler was also “ successful “ and “ popular “ in Nazi Germany.

I’m sorry, are they running for President? If not, why should I care?
