Y'know ... it just occurred to me ...

Trump and Soros are of the same ilk but I've never even heard Soros' name from Trump

[ConservativeMind]

You mean they are both investors, like everyone else? Or, do you mean they both breathe oxygen?

Same ilk? Seriously? Most Americans havent even heard of Soros, as the vast majority of the media doesnt want anyone to know who this megalomaniac is and how he has been manipulating American elections for years and how Obama is in his pocket. Trump is not running against Soros, attacking someone with no ubiquitous name recognition makes no sense.

Trump and Soros are of the same ilk

Nonsense. Trump runs and enterprise that makes its money by providing physical shelter to individuals and businesses and provides recreational facilities. He makes money because folks willingly part with their cash to pay Trump for the goods and services so rendered in voluntary free market transactions.

Soros makes his money manipulating the buying and selling of pieces of paper.

Other than the number of zeros filling the bottom line of their statement of net worth the two men don't have much in common. One actually has built things and employed people. The other is a currency manipulator of the James Bond villain type. One is an undeniable (and full disclosure: I did not vote for Trump in my State's primary) patriot. The other a man of no borders or loyalty, who even recalls his youth turning in his fellow Budapest Jews to the Gestapo as his "happiest days". One hides in the shadows like a wizened spider, the other has worked hard at being front and center in the news and even television entertainment for decades.

So "ilk" must mean association by sheer wealth. And maybe Trump feels it isn't the right moment to point out Soros as the string puller behind Clinton and the Democrats. If so, I'd agree with him on that. Clinton will be the name on the ballot opposite his and that should be the target (for now).
