Let's remember that Forbes put Trump on their list many times because Trump phoned in pretending to be "John Barron" and lied to get him put on their list, so I wouldn't pay much attention to them.

But he says he's really rich so you worship him.

At some point, we lost the insight that most people got in the period 1960-1978, and once again the bottom line on your financial statements became your worth as a human being.

It's not the first time. Notice how much of our language equates how much money you have with how good a human being you are, or how happy you are, or how you look, or all of the above. LONG double-entendre list. More of them than I can remember at any one time. Here's a go at a very partial list.

Worth
Value
Values
Rich
Poor
Legacy
Contribution
Take stock
Beautiful people
Elite
Class
Classy

Because he is a corrupt person and the equivalent of a TV preacher.

Boy are these Trump Supporters desperate. :roll:

Donald Trump GoFundMe Raises $84K of $355 Million Target in 24 Hours

An online fundraiser for former President Donald Trump has racked up $84,354 out of a $355 million target in just 24 hours following the final judgement in his civil fraud trial in New York.

On Friday, Trump was fined roughly $355 million by New York Judge Arthur Engoron following a monthslong trial. The trial was to determine how much Trump and his associates would pay after New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit in September 2022 accusing the former president, his two adult sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, The Trump Organization and two firm executives, Allen Weisselberg and Jeff McConney of fraudulently overvaluing assets to secure more favorable bank loans and taxation deals.

Let's ban him from doing business in NYC for life. No more shiny new places built by stiffed contractors. No more ugly over-decorated buildings with names like Trump Tower, Trump Palace, Trump Castle, Trump Shithouse, whatever. Please. Do it.

Have you seen the shoes? The pair I saw were shiny gold with a huge T on them.
I think people who buy them won't be wearing them.
I believe they will sell about 100 000 pair then shut down due to no repeat business

I’d bet good damned money that there ain’t no such sneakers. It’s all another Trump scam for idiots.

I mean, Trump is really rich, so damned rich that he begs retirees pick between eating and sending him money to pay his legal fees. ‘Cause lord knows Trump won’t pay for it himself.

And this guy runs the GOP.

Can you trademark the color of your shoe soles? That being said I am confident that it wasn't by accident.
I am not into shoes and buy whatever is on sale. But, those are hideous and I can't imagine anyone actually wearing them.
If I had the money I would buy 5 pairs one for each of my grandchildren and put them away until both me and my wife go to our reward.
20 to 25 years from now they will either be a valuable collectors item or worthless.

So you'd donate to Donald Trump. Not surprised.

And you'd be surprised the things a corporation can control about their products.

Again your reading comprehension is very poor. Buying them in hopes that 25 years from now they are valuable is not contributing to Trump.

Just like paying for a course at Trump University in hope that it would be valuable is a fool's game which is why he gets suckers to fork over money to him.

Of course it’s giving money to Trump. Don’t pretend otherwise.

I am saying they might be valuable 25 years from now and it would be nice if my grandkids could cash in.

Well, I’m sure that it’s also cool that Trump cashes in now.

He plays people like you for a sucker. Here’s what’s crazy. After all of this, you really think that Donald Trump shits gold, and that if he says something is valuable, then you believe him.

That’s just sad, man.
