Yup.
You don't get $500k for every speech you give on Wall Street for your wit and wisdom.
Recently bought a beachfront mansion on Marthas Vineyard for a reputed $13.5m cash as well.
Well on his way, I reckon.

I mean, he might not literally get a billion, but the pair of them are probably worth at least a hundred million by now, and I'd be shocked if they don't triple that before they die.
Like Blair and Clinton before him, he looked into the abyss... and the abyss looked back into him.
I was never contesting your opinion on how much money they might make.
rather that it is their main objective.

Tulsi outlasting the 'top-tier candidate' Kamala Harris...she's on her way to joining the actual top tier herself.
For me, she's the only Dem candidate who can beat Trump as she can actively take his votes due to her veteran status. Sanders & Warren won't turn Trump voters, Biden is senile and I don't believe the electorate at large are ready for a candidate like Mayor Pete.
As Tulsi ticks all the right identity-politics boxes (female, brown, other religion) it remains a mystery why she's not being pushed. Maybe all that identity-politics mania is a facade.

holy hell....i don't recall the mainstream media reporting on this. Only last week: "I love kids on my lap, they used to rub my legs". And what does he mean by "roaches"?
Get him to stand down, ffs!
EDIT: just seen the speech is from 2017...well, that's alright then lol

bit of number-crunching:
since this thread was started it has generated almost 1300 posts. In that same time-frame, the Trump thread has generated well over 5000 posts. That's almost 4 times the number.
Trump's whole schtick is dominating the news cycle. It's working.

Tbf, Democratic primaries aren't as newsworthy or interesting as a giant orange dementia patient with his hands on the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world. That stuff is pyar hollywood

i suppose...but that's what he wants. honestly can't see anyone other than Tulsi beating him now.
Yes he wants it, but only because he is a reactive, egomaniacal buffoon with absolutely no sense of tact, decency or fairness and has an almost childish need for constant attention. Your sentiment here echoes many others I've heard, and seems to infer that it's part of some wider game of 4-dimensional chess he's playing when it's not. He's just plain dumb and says lots of stupid things very loudly because there's nobody close to him to tell him how stupid he is

disagree our prev...he's not dumb, he's playing a long game quite effectively. he's a master meme-generator, the most-effective troll there has ever been. the most reported-on man in history.
a plain buffoon would never have that effect.
i don't want another 4 years of Trump, but that will happen if he keeps getting underestimated...feeding this particular troll only makes him stronger.
