| Insidb said: The question is not purchasing power: Chinese investors spend more than his entire portfolio on NY RE annually (They've blown past the Russians of late, thanks to Putin's consolidation of the oligarchs.), and a one buyer scenario is possibly, but not likely.. Whether or not people want to buy it is a testament to his supposed business savvy; that's a fair question to raise, which would probably rustle quite a few skeletons in his closets. This is real: If Trump's business enterprise is indebted to banks, that inherently contradicts your assetion about presidents and indebtedness. It's also signifcantly more complicated than that, because he owes them returns on current deals, payments on financing deals, and likely payouts on debt relief deals (The latter two can be interrelated.). Couple that with the expectation of hrowing his enterprise, through the same lenders, and we have many potential conflicts. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Ulyssess Grant, Harry Truman , and others were debt-ridden presidents, so I think character goes a lot further than being independently wealthy. It's why I would trust Bloomberg and not Trump: the former took no salary and dumped millions into the city hall; the latter said that he will take no salary and is charging teh secret service 1MM+/year to rent out his building. If I haven't clarified this earlier, I am not pro-Clinton (too many similarities to Trump). |
What you linked to me says that Felix Sater is connected Donald Trump, it raises no coincidence about his russian origins ... (You're going to have to try harder than that to show that Trump actually has connections to high level officials or high profile russians.)
I NEVER said presidents shouldn't be in debt, it's that no one should NEVER have negative equity ... (Really bad idea to be debt-ridden since compromises have to be made in desperate scenarios.)
Listing golden examples doesn't really help your case and Ulysses Grant wasn't exactly a great president if you take a look at the rankings but there are others too like William Henry Harrison who were downright horrible along with his VP pick ...
It's also the secret services choice as to how they want to spend their money ...
