He likely would have worked until he died in his office anyway, but he also had the option of retiring and enjoying all that $$$$$ and living like a king, with a mansion and a yacht! Now, he does get ridiculed and all the pic states/implies or whatever, however angle you choose to look at it. Fact is, his life will never be the same again, and I would imagine that all presidents know this going into it. He will NEVER be able to spend his wealth in the same manner he could have as a private citizen. He will be way more known everywhere he goes, way more so than he was with his fame prior. And then when his presidency is over, the song remains the same. He will still never have complete privacy. Barely able to go out anymore, and when so will always have secret service alone. You become 50/50 at that point, half the nation, give or take, will always not give a shit about you. Wherever he retires to he will live like a king that has problems should he want to leave his castle. I hope he likes shopping on Amazon! And then his entire family is changed as a result, some maybe more so than others. This is a HUGE responsibility for anyone to undertake. And truly knowing what one already has, and what one will have and then be able to live going forth. Me? I wouldn't do it. Too much of everyone in your face and inability to ever really be a private citizen again. Now, he didn't give up his life in a direct transaction to be humiliated and slandered at times. He gave it up to run and then hopefully become president of the USA. And then that 50/50 give or take comes along with the position. And he DID state 20 years back that he may run someday, but only if he thought the country was in trouble. The man generally holds true to his word. And the way he comes off as an idiot on twitter most of the time, I truly feel that his running and now presidency, he is truly believing he is doing good by our country. https://i.imgur.com/qEWbE1L.jpg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 2] Author : Abbey Marie Date : 07-13-2018 10:05 AM And not just him and his family.

He will leave office far wealthier than when he was elected. Trump spends virtually every weekend living the billionaire lifestyle in his Florida resort. His family profits from his presidency by the day. Trump is ridiculed because he is a liar and an idiot. Why else would he visit foreign countries in seclusion from the common folks? Obviously the most unpopular president in more than a century. I have to wonder how Trump will manage to insult the Queen. You know it's going to happen. :cool: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 5] Author : jimnyc Date : 07-13-2018 10:50 AM Not a surprise that teaching someone that 1+1=2 is nearly impossible for them to grasp. :laugh: Funny stuff, funny days, and they will continue ahead. And in the giving up, Kennedy gave up after a long career, and now we get to once again watch the screaming to the skies in tears. But I assure you, that 1+1 does in fact still equal 2. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 6] Author : jimnyc Date : 07-13-2018 10:52 AM And not just him and his family. Look at Sarah Palin. Libs are a vile group. Vile is a polite way of describing things. They literally cannot handle defeat. They literally cannot handle tolerance, even when they make it a part of their foundation. And getting to watch them respond to Trump in so many ways is a delight. :) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 7] Author : Abbey Marie Date : 07-13-2018 03:28 PM Vile is a polite way of describing things.

It just boggles the mind. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 8] Author : Elessar Date : 07-13-2018 03:59 PM Trump has given up NOTHING.

You know it's going to happen. :cool: Would you care to describe just how "far wealthier than when elected"? Have you some kind of inside information or data to back that up? He can live off his bank deposits all he wants. He refused to take federal salary in the full amount, opting for obeying the Federal Law in accepting $1 per year: https://www.countable.us/articles/2721-trump-donates-salary-does-go So he has investments. Is that a crime and disallowed for a president? The rest of your diatribe is speculation. liberals pray for those kinds of things so they can fill out their calendars to make sure there is a reason to complain, whine, protest, and demonstrate 365 1/4 days a year that a liberal democrat is not the POTUS. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Downloaded from Debate Policy - Political Message Board (http://www.debatepolicy.com) at 03-28-2024 06:56 AM.
