      It’s called being born into wealth.

      You just get good at using your wealth to avoid accountability. It doesn’t take intelligence to not pay contractors cause you keep getting away with it your whole life.

      There is strong evidence that he basically got saved by Russian money.

      So yes, being so lucky to be born into wealth and also sociopathic enough to do whatever it takes like betraying your own country.

        What I find extremely obscene is that he doesn’t have talent, skill, knowledge, training, or experience.

        It’s just money. Dirty old money.

        All you need to break EVERY rule in the book is…MONEY.

        Being intelligent and being not dumb are not the same thing.

        He knows he doesn’t need to roll tanks down Main Street USA, because people in the USA refuse to stand up to the government in any meaningful way.

          I guess we have different definitions of dumb.

          Like there are reports that he was the dumbest student in many classes.

          Remember the basic “intelligence” test he took and he kept bragging about the results?
