He's smarter than you. 
His financial success is evidence of that. 
Got anything to the contrary where YOU are concerned?

Didn't think so.

He inherited 700 million and he cheats on his taxes

Your argument that Trump cheated on his taxes despite numerous IRS audits is not only speculative but also ignores key facts. The IRS audits tax returns to ensure they comply with the law, especially for high-profile individuals like Trump. If there had been any significant wrongdoing, it would have been detected during these thorough reviews. The absence of penalties or legal actions related to his taxes suggests that no evidence of cheating was found. Claiming otherwise without proof is misleading and unfounded.

Furthermore, Trump’s tax returns are complex, involving numerous legal deductions and business expenses. While some might debate the fairness of the tax code that allows these deductions, it's a leap to equate using legal tax strategies with cheating. Just because someone pays less in taxes doesn’t mean they’re doing something illegal. Conflating the two is not only inaccurate but also disingenuous.

Being a troll by spreading unfounded accusations is counterproductive and damages the quality of discussion. If you’re genuinely concerned about tax fairness or specific issues in Trump’s returns, bring forward evidence or valid points for debate. Otherwise, making baseless claims without evidence does nothing but spread misinformation and stir unnecessary controversy.

He inherited 700 million
During his presidency, Donald Trump experienced a significant decline in his net worth, losing over $700 million. This substantial loss was largely due to the struggles of his real estate and hospitality businesses, sectors that were hit particularly hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Properties like his hotels and golf courses faced decreased revenue due to travel restrictions and economic downturns, which significantly impacted his overall wealth.

Despite these losses, Trump's wealth remains considerable compared to the average American, including professionals like airline pilots. Even after losing more than $1 billion during his time in office, Trump's net worth was still estimated at around $2.5 billion by the end of his presidency. This wealth is spread across various assets, including real estate, brand licensing, and other investments, ensuring that his financial standing remains strong.

In comparison, while airline pilots are well-compensated, often earning six-figure salaries, their income and overall net worth are dwarfed by Trump’s. The gap between Trump's remaining fortune and that of an airline pilot highlights the immense scale of his wealth, even after suffering significant financial setbacks during his presidency.

The statement "You are obviously edited your AI computations" is not just grammatically incorrect, but it also demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of language and logic. Grammatically, the sentence mixes tenses and subjects incorrectly. "You are obviously edited" incorrectly combines a present continuous verb ("are") with a past tense verb ("edited"). It should either be "You have obviously edited" or "You are obviously editing." Additionally, "your AI computations" is being misused as an object without a clear action linking it to the subject, making the sentence confusing and incomplete.

Conceptually, the error is even more glaring. The phrase suggests that AI computations can be "edited" in real-time by some external force, which reflects a misunderstanding of how AI operates. AI outputs are generated based on inputs, training data, and algorithms, not something that can be whimsically "edited" like a document. The statement betrays a lack of understanding about AI’s mechanisms, showing an attempt to critique something not fully comprehended.

Being a troll by making such poorly constructed statements isn’t constructive. Instead of engaging in meaningful discussion or critique, you're spreading misinformation and confusion. If your goal is to challenge or question something, it’s important to do so from a place of knowledge and clarity, not from a position that reveals a lack of understanding and ends up undermining your credibility.

There, I fixed it.

Speaking of AI

A grown man who lives all alone and is reduced to buying cars and other expensive gifts for strange women in exchange for their time is both unhealthy and pathetic.
While it fills a void in the necessary need for human contact, especially with those of the opposite sex, it ultimately leads to abandonment and feelings of guilt and inadequacy when the paid companion tires of her sponsor and moves on to someone that has more to offer.

If you falsely claimed that AI said this while trolling online, you're not just spreading misinformation; you're intentionally trying to provoke and mislead others. The statement you fabricated is harsh and judgmental, designed to belittle and shame individuals in a way that’s both unfair and harmful. Attributing such an offensive and misguided sentiment to AI to stir up reactions is a dishonest tactic that disrespects both the truth and the people you're targeting.

Trolling like this doesn’t just hurt the conversation; it actively poisons it. By falsely claiming that AI generated such a statement, you're feeding into the worst aspects of online behavior—spreading lies, creating unnecessary conflict, and trying to undermine others through manipulation. It’s a move that reflects poorly on you and contributes nothing positive to the discourse.

If your goal is to engage in meaningful discussion, there are far better ways to do it than resorting to deceit and trolling. Spreading falsehoods and making harmful claims under the guise of AI not only erodes trust but also diminishes your own credibility. It’s time to step away from the trolling and focus on honest, constructive communication.

I guess Trump is also smarter than Einstein. Einstein never inherited 700 million dollars. Trump is a clear intellectual winner who inherited 700 million dollars.

You're making an overly simplistic and misguided comparison that misses the point entirely. Intelligence and success are not measured by the size of one's inheritance. Einstein’s contributions to science and humanity are rooted in his groundbreaking intellectual achievements, not in financial wealth. Comparing that to Trump’s inheritance is not just a logical fallacy; it trivializes Einstein’s immense impact on the world.

Reducing a person’s value or intelligence to the amount of money they’ve inherited ignores the complexities of what it means to be truly accomplished. Trump’s financial success, whether inherited or earned, does not make him "smarter" than someone like Einstein, whose brilliance reshaped our understanding of the universe. Equating the two reflects a superficial understanding of what intellect and success really mean.

Thinking that money alone defines a person’s worth or intelligence is a shallow view that oversimplifies both Trump’s and Einstein’s legacies. It’s important to recognize that wealth and intellectual achievement are different measures of success, and conflating them only serves to diminish the true value of both.

Lumping everyone you disagree with into one category is what you do, don't be sorry about it, just stop doing it.

Why are MAGA cultists so incapable of fathoming ....
I wasn't referring to calling people names genius, I was talking about attacking people for positions they never supported.

No, just those who show themselves to be cultists. I've never accused Thett of being a cultist. As much as I disagree with ADOL and don't think he applies any of the same standards towards his political views that he does anywhere else in life, I at least respect him for showing the capacity to think for himself. All you do is parrot talking points you heard on your right wing podcasts. That's why I lump you into that category.

Funny how those podcasts say the same thing as ADOL and Thett, mainly that Trump sucks, but is the only choice.

Also answers the OP where your baseless cult assertions fail. I'm sure your next post will say something along the level of people agreeing with Thett are in the Thett cult. It's just your go to defense.

no he's not

no it's not. It's a sign his daddy handed him a fortune and a profitable company. Most things trump has ever done has been a disaster. EX trump stakes, trump universtiy etc. He's driven quite a few companies into bankruptcy, including casinos. The only reason he is rich is because he started rich and because he got famous on the apprentice. And he only got onto the apprentice because the rich people who actually made money wouldn't agree to do the show so they settled for trump.

Got anything to the contrary where YOU are concerned?
this guy says the dumbest shit, constantly. He has openly said that if he gets into power again his top priority is taking revenge. We should all be very concerned about the idea of the 78 year old man baby being in a position of power again.

He got a lot of money. Did he get that by being stupid?
no. He got that by a combination of:
1) being born super rich
2) inheriting money from his dad
3) no skilled businessmen actually wanting to do the apprentice so they settled for trump. 
4) he hires people much smarter than him to run his businesses for him. 


He's driven a bunch of companies into bankruptcy, including casinos. His main sources of income have been the money he got from daddy, the company he inherited from daddy, and the grifting he did on the back of becoming famous for being on the apprentice.

I am sure Trump knows full well that you can't have more than 100% of anything, the point is that he doesn't care. His relationship with the truth is fundamentally different than anything we have seen in American politics.
yeah I'm sure you are right about him just spewing lies off the top of his head. But given how far his brain has clearly declined over the last few years. You do have to legitimately wonder if he knows that he's lying, or if the legitimately thinks this could be true.

no, I actually hear trump say most of these things. And the ones I don't hear personally, other people report on the stupid shit he told them. 

You fail to hear voices that are there because you wish to be willfully ignorant. You want to worship trump, so you ignore the things he actually says and pretend he didn't say them.

i don't have the number on hand, but something like 75% of the people trump hired for his administration don't endorse his re-election. Many of them say he's an idiot. I'm sure some of it is gossip. But you don't have 75% of your former employees saying you shouldn't be president if you are a competent president.

except he does say these things. You choose to believe he didn't because you don't want to hear it. You hear him say more than 100% of jobs went to migrants and say, "no he didn't say that mathematically impossible thing, no he really meant some other thing that isn't stupid."

How many of those people got fired for incompetence (or really for any reason to hold a grudge and make shit up)?

In any case, relying on gossip when you have millions of hours of actual 1st hand source is a good way to lose the truth.
