Trump could have done what W did and hand off everything to the VP, and spent all his time golfing, grifting and shit talking, but, because he's a narcissist, he has to control everything and he's horrible at it.

Which just goes to show that money makes money. This fool, despite his incompetence, bankruptcy, etc., still has money some how.

This is why I truly believe there is no God.

How the fuck do dipshit millionaires like Trump, monarchs, and wealthy despots all over the world live safe, fantastic, lazy lives of high quality, meanwhile genuinely good-hearted, selfless, caring, hard-working people elsewhere live in abject poverty and danger?

Because genuinely good-hearted, selfless, caring, hard-working people won't do what you have to do to make that kind of money.

I have this recurring thought that this world is like a training program. Like it's to show what happens when you think "let's organize people into hierarchies" or "this is what results from your ideas playing out"
