    Yeah. I forgot that once you have some money, you don't want more, you just quit. Thanks for reminding me.
    One thing you forgot, Trump is also a public servant now with a 400k/year salary who will amass millions in the process.
    Also, I don't doubt other politicians do the same. But they didn't campaign with "drain the swamp" bullcrap. If you say you are different and that is the core of your strategy and then behave exactly the same (or worse), what does it say about you?

    What is it with the rabid sect of Trump supporters who have no concept of logic or reasoning? A pretty strong case of Stockholm syndrome.

    "You've been brainwashed." says the guy who gets all his information from Fox and Breitbart. Which lifelong politician is worth $100s of millions...very specifically "100's of millions", not a few million they obtained from writing a book or other royalties? There are allegedly "a lot" of them, go ahead and give us a list, you should know this off the top of your head if you're confident enough to pontificate on it.

    Quite well examined in the little crowdfunded documentary "The Brainwashing of My Dad" (2015). Less political than other similar attempts and more about WTF happened to this man and has he actually been brainwashed?

  4. Actually that level of proof is not required in a civil suit. So go for it.

    First off, he donates his salary.

    Secondly, he's actually getting poorer as a result of being president, unlike previous politicians.

    As for Stockholm syndrome, what exactly is there not to like about the results of the Trump presidency?

    Market? Nope, it's going up
    Unemployment? Nope, it's at record lows.
    Trade? Nope, he's actually negotiated more favorable deals.
    ISIS? Nope, he destroyed them in his first 3 months in office.
    Endless wars? Nope, he's actually getting our troops out of the ME unlike the two previous regimes.

    I would say anyone still anti-Trump at this point has TDS. But that is to be expected with the daily brain washing done by the biased media.

  6. In their defense, Dear Leader claims to be of Swedish ancestry. So it all makes sense...somehow.

    President Trump donates 100% of his presidential salary to various agencies.
    Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, both kin and advisors to the President, take no salary at all.

    You can do your own verification. Or you won't.

  8. The Trump Foundation, perhaps? They need more portraits of him.

    SPY was $208 when he won and is now $316. I have a lot of complains about his politics but no complain as a trader.

    Didn't someone here said volatility is a trader's best friend?

    So you can't back up your statement "unlike a lot of the lifelong (public servant) politicians that make only $200k/year in congress but still somehow amass $100's of millions in wealth over their careers."? Pretty rich to throw out blatantly false information that you can't back up, then accuse everyone else of being "brainwashed"! But quick, let's switch topics to throw out a bunch of other falsehoods or irrelevant items, maybe they'll forget. So I'll ask you again:
