It is not his parents that had a lot of money but rather him. He had no trust fund nor would he need one with his near half trillion wealth
Stop lying and particularly incredibly ignorantly so
Did he have to work to pay for his schooling? Did he go to a Public school? Did he have to worry about eating or about is parents suffering because they could not pay the rent. Was he laughed at or bullied in school?

Paids like this one have resources provided to them which allows quick responses. . No way this was formulated and sent within 10 minutes of its last post. Too stupid to recognize that is the paid one.
 
Did he have to work to pay for his schooling? Did he go to a Public school? Did he have to worry about eating or about is parents suffering because they could not pay the rent. Was he laughed at or bullied in school?
Yeah he got beat up a lot but he dug in and succeeded incredibly. What you described is the same which occurred to tens of millions as they grew up and moved along You are no one to take his inventory abject failure.
 
I never tried to understand poverty. It was all around me. i did understand avoiding it. So responsible that it’s racist
Hey, did you see what you wrote? You lived around poverty and it made you understand to avoid it. Did Trump or Musk ever go through what you went through so they could know what it means and learn what is needed to avoid it?

You know! do they?
.
 
I truly have a question that I would like to discuss. It is more of a general question but it does apply now.

What do you expect from Billionaires that are leaders, especially those that grew up in wealthy homes having everything they needed from the get go? Do you expect them to understand the travails, obstacles, hardships, needs of the middle and poor class? Be able to relate empathize to them in a way that is real?

In the case of Trump and of Musk, these are two leaders that were born rich and never had to experience the travails of a poor man or even of the middle class person. Can such a person understand and feel what the poor and middle class person had to go through to pay their bills, take care of their family, make sure there was food on the table, that they had health insurance and that the medical bills got paid? Did they ever have to experience racism, bullying, injustice, and life's pain as they grew up? Ever have to have 2 or 3 jobs just to make ends meet?

I want to now talk history and about some of the great leaders history has brought us.

Here are 5 that I found on Google

1) Mahatma Gandhi
2) Martin Luther King Jr.
3) Abraham Lincoln
4) Nelson Mandela
5) Winston Churchill

Did any of these people come from wealthy families? were they wealthy themselves? No, they weren't!

On the other side of the coin, here are 4 leaders that were among the richest of all time and see the havoc they wrought on their people

1) Augustus Caesar
2) Cosimo de Medici
3) Mansa Musa
4) Genghis Khan

I am not saying that wealthiness prevents someone from being a great leader, given that JF Kennedy was born to a rich family and was rich himself and was a good president. Nonetheless, there are several things that are "rarely" taught in rich families that are necessary ingredients that a leader must have. They are:
  1. Character and Integrity: Great leaders have unwavering character and integrity. They stick to their values and principles even when the decision is tough. Leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Abraham Lincoln exemplified this and led their followers with honesty and moral courage.
  2. Vision and Strategy: A great leader has a clear vision for the future and the strategic thinking to make it happen. Jeff Bezos, for example, has disrupted the retail industry with his long-term view and innovative strategies at Amazon.
  3. Empathy and Emotional Intelligence: Leaders who understand and connect with their followers’ emotions can inspire and motivate like no one else. Martin Luther King Jr.’s empathetic approach and communication skills were key to the civil rights movement.
  4. Resilience and Perseverance: Great leadership requires the ability to withstand tough times and persevere through adversity. Nelson Mandela’s commitment to justice and equality despite decades of imprisonment shows incredible resilience.
  5. Impact and Legacy: Ultimately, a leader’s greatness is measured by the impact they have on their organization, community, or the world. The greatest leaders leave a legacy that continues to inspire and influence long after they are gone.
Of these 5 attributes, there are two that neither Trump nor Musk possess and that is Character and Integrity and Empathy and Emotional Intelligence. Without those two, the leader is very limited in what he will be able to accomplish "for the people"

As such, my view is that these two leaders we now have cannot become great for our nation. Having said that, I want to hear your views but your views need to be based on the fact that both of these men were born to wealthy families and never had to go through what you and I went through. How can they empathize with us without having some personal benefit to themselves as first priority? Have money, fame and power as their top priority?
Both Trump and Musk have demonstrated they understand the issues and problems of we in the working class far better than anybody who are professional politicians or others of the elite removed from the working class can ever understand. And the fact that they have all the money they need and are not in it to make money but rather that they want to give back and actually do something good for America and Americans is very reassuring to me. And if that includes some ego to create a lasting legacy for themselves by doing what nobody else has done, power to them.
 
The IRS is hiring 87,000 armed agents!
So you deny the IRS hired agents!!!

In May 2021, the Biden administration approved hiring 87,000 new Internal Revenue Service employees by 2031, but only a fraction are agents, and the majority are filling expected vacancies.
 
Hey, did you see what you wrote? You lived around poverty and it made you understand to avoid it. Did Trump or Musk ever go through what you went through so they could know what it means and learn what is needed to avoid it?

You know! do they?
.
We all see poverty
They did also
You stand for victimhood rather than achievement
 
I never tried to understand poverty. It was all around me. i did understand avoiding it. So responsible that it’s racist
I had a mixed childhood. My actual father was as I believed then and now a bum. Why was he a bum. Because of beer for one thing. Because he enjoyed lying.

Mom divorced bum when I was in grade school and my stepfather was a very nice man. He handled the family as if he was our birthfather. I had a bum brother. My other brother was a homosexual who fled CA to live in NY City. And he drank beer all the time. My bum brother smoked marijuana all the time. But my brothers never learned that from my stepdad and my mother. Stepdad was not rich nor aimed to be rich after he married mom. But he and mom were savers. They did not ever go broke.
 

Hundreds allege Donald Trump doesn’t pay his bills

At least 60 lawsuits, along with hundreds of liens, judgments, and other government filings reviewed by the USA TODAY NETWORK, document people who have accused Trump and his businesses of failing to pay them for their work. Among them: a dishwasher in Florida. A glass company in New Jersey. A carpet company. A plumber. Painters. Forty-eight waiters. Dozens of bartenders and other hourly workers at his resorts and clubs, coast to coast.
Trump is invested in more than 500 companies. Trump does not handle his payments. He hires others for that.
 
Not even close.


Trump cheats people.

That's not a slur, that's a fact.
Billionaires hire staff to handle what you bitch about.
 
Yes, a lot of entitled dipshits spin a fable of poverty, with the wind blowing through the walls of their shack and having to eat with the pigs out of a trough.

Musk's parents sent him to the University of Pretoria, then the University of Pennsylvania, and then Stanford (where he never enrolled in any classes).

Poor, poor trust fund baby!
When Democrats hate others, they always claim that the party they hate was born rich.
 
The IRS is hiring 87,000 armed agents!
So you deny the IRS hired agents!!!

Elon Musk's biographer set the record straight on whether Errol Musk ever owned an emerald mine. Walter Isaacson spoke to Musk's father Errol, who told him he exchanged a plane for emeralds. Errol never owned a mine, but imported emeralds into South Africa and had them cut in Johannesburg.Sep 11, 2023

ChatGPT certainly punked you on this one. Churchill came from an aristocratic family (father was a lord, descended from the Duke of Marlborough). His mother was from very wealthy family as well.

Emperor Augustus is noted for a long reign of peace and prosperity. His descendents for the most part were terrors, but that doesn't undo the good he did.

Cosimo de Medici was not a monster. He was a great patron of the Renaisssance (arts and architecture) - with a huge and lasting impact.

The assessment of Trump and Musk is utter b'loney.
 
What in the hell do you know of Trump or Elon Musk. Not one damn thing.
How's this for starters? They're both a couple of trust fund babies who had everything handed to them on a silver platter. Especially Trump in the "leader" & (I use that term loosly) category who's one of the biggrst lowlifes who ever lived.

Considering you're in his cult, you'll never see the shiv going in until it's too late to duck.
 
Tax cuts for the super wealthy is what we always get because it trickles down.

Those were examples gotten from Google. Nonetheless, the OP was not about Churchill nor any other person, but about the wealthy that were born from the wealthy not being empathic or knowing how to really address the issues of the poor and middle class, and no one has been able to "punk" me on that.

Dood - you said Churchill did not come from a wealthy family. He did - and he personally saved Western Civilization during WWII.

You didn't do your homework. You just believed whatever Google and it's inherent AI regurgitated for you.
