He’s an idiot-savant. A total moron with a special talent for self promotion. Which it turns out gets you very far in life (along with the head start one gets being born wealthy).
It’s really just the born wealthy. Your family is the biggest factor in success. That’s why so many rich fucks are dumb as posts, they’re born rich; they didn’t earn it, and they’ve never had to develop problem solving skills because they’ve never faced adversity.
hes also a very lazy rich person in the way he earns his money. he only does it by scamming which involves lying. if he had invested in a fund i think he would be close to 100bn richer.
Yeah Trump could have been richer if he just did passive investing. He was born with the bases loaded then bitches about the fact it wasn’t an automatic grand slam. We shouldn’t expect much from a guy who bankrupted both a casino and university.
someone said if he did an index fund he would be very close if not surpassed 100bn. instead hes always in debt, which made him pretty easy to manipulate by the russians.
He developed a cult of personality around himself of significant size and used it to seize one of two pillars of political power in the USA, which then propelled him to power twice. Not smart as in “good for the world,” but pretty successful in the, “empowering and enriching oneself at the cost of the commons” sense.
he was smart enough to recognize his supporters were so dumb, they were easy to manipulate. trump, himself is a scamming, found the easiest people to scam, conservatives, its also why they love crypto.
I was convinced of that from the start. The language he used, I’m pretty sure he’s under the impression that the country you levy a tariff against is the one that pays it. Basically “make Mexico pay for the wall” part 2.
he treats them like his court cases, he thinks tariffs are a way to bully people to do what you want. he has no idea the economic implications of it. also hes doing it as a behest to putin.
I think he at least roughly understands the economic implications, he just doesn’t care. He’ll just crack to the rhetoric, blame everyone else for the problems, and assume his fan base will eat up every word and let him continue.
Falling that, he just goes all in on ignoring elections and count upon the system to let him do that like it’s a woman with a pussy to grab.
Wow. I used to think he just couldn’t stop lying about tariffs…
But now I’m convinced he has NO idea what they are or how they work… NONE
He is exceptionally stupid.

and his dad the equally reprehensible fred trump, had to donate a significant amount to get him into his “2nd rate school”
Yeah everyone tries to convince me he’s smart and the ignorance is an act but I don’t buy it. He truly is mega dumb.

Yup, see Elon Musk

Self promotion is a lot easier with a super rich daddy opening all the doors for you from jump. Don’t forget he’s a hardcore nepo-baby.
not hard enough for him to get into ivy league school, he had to pay extra to get him into the next best school that would take him.
No, he’s just profoundly mentally ill. His narcissism is a singular force of nature.
By that, I ask what smart thing has been done?

And now he’s smart enough to see that he can just ignore rules and laws. If no one is willing to enforce them, they’re just for “losers and suckers”
he said " you voted for what i campaigned on, deal with it"
I was convinced of that from the start. The language he used, I’m pretty sure he’s under the impression that the country you levy a tariff against is the one that pays it. Basically “make Mexico pay for the wall” part 2.
Yep. Somehow, someway; he got the impression that because "goods from China " get hit, that China pays to send it here…
And as someone else posted; he’s surrounded by people who ONLY agree with him. None of his people are correcting him…
We’re so boned
