What guy wants to be him

I aspire to live to 80...be well off financially...have a hot wife(already done)...have kids that are successful and financially able to stand on their own(already done).

The multi-generational wealth thing...that's just a bonus.

Well crap...I guess all I really have left is the live to 80 thing.

Same for Pelosi. So, which is it? Is it ok for Trump but bad for politicians like Pelosi?


According to the most aggressive accusation, Trump’s trust outpaced the market by less than one percent. If you believe he has only doubled his wealth once first becoming President when the trust was created it has under performed the S&P by 50%. Pelosi outpaced the market by 559%.


Which is more likely to be the result of leveraging the office for personal gain? Your equivalence is a false one.

Pelosi isn’t making trades. So, I’ll take your answer as it’s ok for Trump but not ok for Pelosi. You are such a sycophantic hypocrite

You should have aspired to be born into generational wealth. Would have made your other goals much more easily achievable.

Hopefully your wife actually likes you.

The point is sailing waaaaaay over your head. There is nothing wrong with making trades. They just have to be disclosed from a governmental ethics standpoint. Both are doing that.

The nefarious accusation is using the office for personal gain. You and I likely out earned Trump’s rate of return…if the accusations are true. You and I are nowhere near Pelosis rate of return.

Your inability to understand some very basic issues is not my problem. Your ignorance and lack of capacity doesn’t make me a sycophant or a hypocrite. It just proves your ignorance is high and your capacity is low.

This isn’t normal. It’s downright abnormal and certainly not normal. You can use whatever mental gymnastics you want but that amount of trading reeks of insider trading and manipulation.

What is the relevance of whether it’s normal or not? Make your allegation. If you say he is using the office for personal gain he needs to fire his advisors. Because he is growing at a slower percentage than you and I. Not good for a billionaire. He needs to get better at being corrupt, obviously.


But keep digging.

It’s perfectly ok to be a conservative or a republican and point out abnormal behavior. It doesn’t make you a ‘Kamala voter’ to acknowledge something stinks to high heaven with that many trades in a year and a half. Lord you are such a sycophantic hypocrite. Just call a spade a spade and move on.

The article is designed for you to draw this conclusion, you’ve shown you are susceptible to this very clearly. It’s why you are the way you are.

When you address the returns, it evaporates. Address the returns vs Pelosi. You won’t.

You’d be instructed to believe the same exact thing had Trump made 4 trades. “Inside trading doesn’t require a lot of trades, he’s manipulating a handful of big winners, obviously”

You are a dumb clown human ;)

Agreed. Is being a billionaire abnormal? It’s certainly abnormal to be as dumb as you. What is the relevance of abnormal as it pertains to the OP? Make your allegation. Then support it with actual evidence. “Abnormal” is not evidence. You know what is…underperforming vs the market. Or is abnormal all you need? Certainly when it comes to Trump. You’re a run of the mill TDS loser.

You have ignored all of the facts posted and stick to your ignorance. You got him this time.

Makes sense


Trump takes office as a billionaire and leaves office as a billionaire.

Pelosi and Obama take office as hard working smucks and leave as multi millionaires.

Does that make sense to you?

The allegation has been made. You are on here defending it as a nothing burger while condemning others in Congress who do it in a less egregious manner.

You are a sycophant cuck. Period.

Such a dumb lame person, lets see you have a known billionaire with investments who had start up companies only because the LEFT WING NUTTERS refused to let conservatives play fair.

Meanwhile we see people like the Clintons, Gore, Biden Bernie the commie, Warner from Virg. who had no money suddenly worth 100s of millions, AND YOU CAN'T SEE THE DIFFERENCE, LOL.

Yes. And your ONLY evidence is that many trades is abnormal. What is a normal amount of trades for an advisor handling a billionaires portfolio? How familiar are you with strategies advisors put in place for billionaires. Ever heard of tax loss harvesting? That requires daily monitoring, right? Would it be abnormal for a billionaire’s advisor to employ that strategy or a dozen others? Abnormal or smart? Your ignorance to anything that you haven’t personally experienced does not make something abnormal. It just means your opining with hubris from a place of complete ignorance.

The evidence against is abnormally low returns on those investments. Especially for a billionaire. Which is more compelling?
