Quiz time: Did you ever hear Mitt Romney, or Nelson Rockefeller, JFK, RFK or Teddy Kennedy proclaim to adoring crowds that they were “really rich”?
Time’s up. I didn’t think so.
But yet … this year’s presumptive Republican presidential nominee has made such a proclamation. Many times, in fact, since he became a politician in the summer of 2015.
Well, it turns out he might not be quite as “really rich” as he bragged. It is being reported widely that the guy who also proclaimed himself to be “really smart” and would hire “the best people” to work for him cannot raise the $400-plus million bond he is ordered to pay in the defamation case brought by E. Jeanne Carroll, whom a jury has ruled was raped by the former Idiot in Chief.
I am reluctant to say “I told you so,” but I have maintained all along that anyone who claims out loud to be as rich and smart as the former POTUS more than likely is neither.
New York Attorney General Leticia James now faces the prospect of seizing the ex-POTUS’s assets to make him pay for what he owes the court. Wouldn’t that be, um, rich beyond belief.
Mitt Romney said out loud what many of us knew already prior to the 2016 election. He called the so-called “really rich” guy a “phony” and a “fraud.”
Am I stunned at what might happen soon? Yes! Am I surprised? Not one little bit!
You might want to listen to Mark Cuban who corrected a California democrat who tried to claim what you are implying. Like Cuban said, wealth doesn’t work like that. Billionaires rarely have “cash” in such drastic amounts. He’s also one, along with Kevin O’Leary, have stated New York has done Trump wrong and are concerned with doing business in New York. They both also say there’s no crime since no victim could be identified.
Just more political attacks.
