Indeed. But the path he chose since 2016 is a bit suboptimal for making money. Don’t you think? Or do you think the long con was to become president for this week?
I’m not trying to ascribe moral character either. Power, status, fame, etc are just so much more compelling.
- rescripting 2y agoI agree, which is why I used "wealth" and not "money", since power/status/fame is just another form of wealth. Trump seems to be a special mix of rich kid who didn't get hugged enough as a child.
- grandempire 2y agoNow that contradicts the narrative that the stock market thing is a ploy to make money.
- amanaplanacanal 2y agoDidn't his first term get his son in law a multi billion dollar deal with the Saudis? Along with all the other bullshit like getting paid because the secret service has to stay at his properties. This isn't the long con, this is just a continuation. He's a lot more organized this time around.
