Is this the celebrity who flies around on a private jet to lecture the rubes about the dangers of carbon emissions?  A man's net worth doesn't affect my view of his opinions as much as what he does with it. 

 

Like spending it to kill endangered animals in Africa.

 

Tough guy s#!t that doesn't require you to be a tough guy. Just a rich guy who can hire guides to do everything but pull the trigger.

 

Unlike Brad Pitt, a remarkable number of Americans do not want to see Don, Jr. with his shirt off.

Donald Trump Jr is definitely elitist and he learned it from his dad who is an elitist who learned it from his dad who was an elitist. They view themselves above the rest. Fred Trump told little Donald he was better than those who didn't have and Donald took that worldview and ran with it. This is fairly well known information. 

I get what you are saying but if I don't know the person, I feel it is hard for me to judge.  

 

With that said, they both might be super a$$h@!es.

I'll say this about Pitt, at least he's self made. No one would know who Donnie Jr was if it wasn't for his dad (or probably more accurately his grandpa). Donnie Jr is the offspring of a rich dude, and has been riding that money train his entire life. Why people look up to him is beyond me. 

That is interesting.  I would argue that Pitt's parents did more for him...he literally hit the genetic lottery.  If you put me in a lab and told me to design the perfect male...I would design Pitt from Troy...

 

I am also a huge Pitt fan, not even so much his movies but the dude is funny in his interviews.

Like setting up a fake university, milking tens of thousands of dollars from people?

Like overwhelming contractors in court and burying them in legal costs?

Like setting up a cancer charity event to funnel money to private endeavors?

Like using charity money to buy giant self portraits to hang at private properties?

Like using the net worth/fame to grab women by the pussies?  Because when your rich and famous, "they let you do it!"

 

etc...

You don't have to know them, it's how they live their lives. They don't even have to be super a$$h@!es to be elitist. Trump was told by his father repeatedly at a young age on up that he was a killer and a king. Trump is proud of this worldview and passes it to his children. It's not meant to be a shot or an insult it is just the fact of the matter.

Like coming from the wrong side of the tracks, building an empire on the 'right' side, and leaving the right people to rail against the wind because you did what they couldn't.  Running a large business is only a liability for Ds to the point it is immoral until they get their cut.  I'm interested in what Bloomberg did to make NYC a better place and so far alls I've heard is that he's sorry for it.

If the "tracks" are what separate Manhattan from New Jersey, you could kinda make the case that young Don built upon his father's highly successful operation with some bold and risky plays in New York that paid of handsomely for awhile.

 

If you want to roll up your sleeves and vet the business savvy of Donald Trump, he went on wildly over-reach and overestimate himself, going into multiple bankruptcies, including losing his Atlantic City casino. It's actually hard to lose money on casino. Having watched his son's stewardship of the company he founded, Fred Trump drafted legal directives to severely limit Donald's power at Trump Enterprises. When Fred died in 1999, Donald sued to regain power, and within 18 months had driven his father's company completely out of business.  Donald was so notorious for defaulting on loans and screwing contractors that by the time he re-invented himself for The Apprentice, almost no legitimate financial institution would work with him. 

 

Of course there are also the 15 companies Donald Trump started, bearing his name and selling everything from business degrees, to water, to steaks. 100% of them went out of business. Many of The Trump Organizations current real estate "holdings" don't reflect property they own. They are far too cash poor and compromised to purchase anything, simply lending their name and development team to the real players. If you want to see how this plays out in some incredibly unsavory ways, Google "Trump Hotel in Baku."

 

I think someone else did the calculation that if Donald Trump had taken the money his dad gave him and dropped it into the average money market account, he'd be considerably wealthier today.

Yes, he is the biggest con man we've ever seen IMHO.  He conned enough voters to get him in the WH even though his image is just smoke and mirrors.  He couldn't release his taxes as this would blow the image to pieces.  He is compromised and I have no doubt Putin is pulling his strings.
