He did turn what he inherited into quite an empire. I remember an SNL skit about him and Ivana (?) that was a parody on the the old story about The Gift. He secretly sold their yacht to buy her Ghiberti’s bronze doors for Mar A Lago which she sold to buy a golden anchor for the yacht. I think it was called “A Trump Christmas”.

At the time it was funny. Of course that was back when SNL was still funny.

We are about the same age. I just had kids pretty late in life. I too voted for Ted Cruz in the primaries. I didn’t believe Trump could actually win. My loathing for Hillary made me nervous and almost desperate about the whole affair. I was pleasantly surprised when I started to listen to what he was saying.

Given the insanity of the democrat machine I wouldn’t be shocked if the recent assassination attempt wasn’t coordinated. As per usual the sacrificial lamb was the director of the SS. Not particularly sympathetic toward her or any of the DEI champions. I like RFK Jr. I know he has some big flaws but he’s on the same page when it comes to important things. He wrote and posted a lengthy essay on Substack and while he has stopped his campaign he hasn’t fully dropped out. I don’t live in a swing state so I think I might still vote for him. You should read it if you get the chance.
