He inherited hundreds of millions of dollars. That’s a ****load more than “some”. Additionally, his daddy bailed him out of failed deals and bankruptcies for many more millions.

Trump has likely lost more money than he ever “earned”.

And hes likely earned more than hes lost. His finances are private. It doesnt change the fact that hes earned income through work.

Trump has done a lot more than put money into a index fund. The claim was that his father earned EVERYTHING Trump has. Thats clearly not true.

What Trump has, was stolen from investors and contractors in his failed schemes.

Absurd.

If, as you say, Obama “constantly” criticized people just for being wealthy, you won’t have any trouble posting a link from a reliable source quoting Obama saying so, right?

He has lied about his finances, raising and lowering them as it suits.
 
ludin said:
yet that is what he proposed other people do? what do you think wealth redistribution is?
he railed for 8 years against the wealthy of this country.

now it is ok to be wealthy according to him? ol yea he isn't running for office anymore.
the liberal left of let them eat cake is very much real.

Did he? When was that? Links please.
 
Another point is Martha's Vineyard is an island south of Cape Cod that is part of Massachusetts. It is a nice place. This island should be vulnerable if global warming and global flooding was actually true. Yet the Obama's decided to picked beach front property on this island, anyway. Obama knows this was a left wing scam designed to depressed the prime beach front real estate market. The Obama's got a a good deal in the current market.

Of course it is true.

Donald Trump would be a random blowhard from Queens if his father didn't transfer Hundreds of Millions of dollars by setting up a shell corporation to (probably) illegally transfer wealth by self dealing and tax avoidance.

Donald J Trump is not a self made man.

Obama is.

Obama came from humble means, worked hard, used his smarts to advance himself to the highest office in the land.

That is self made.

Where did Obama tell others they shouldn't have ANY wealth or money? Hint, he didn't. This is just another pathetic attempt by dishonest cons to smear Obama to deflect form Trump's utter incompetence and failure as a president. Your comments are utterly dishonest.
