It’s just hypocritical that during his presidency, he pushed the global warming hoax. And now owns a huge piece of property on the ocean. Obama also gained tens of millions of dollars from being President. Trump has lost $1 billion in net worth while being President. Democrats are silent here. Not surprising. Democrats are liars and hypocrites
Climate change is not a hoax.
Property he both can afford, and one that will not be an issue for him during his lifetime. Hard to see why he should not enjoy his retirement.
BTW, tens of millions of dollars were basically earned from publishing an autobiography. Quite legitimate, and aboveboard as well. You don't think Trump will do the same when he leaves office?
And BTW, no one actually knows Trump's net worth, because he goes to heroic lengths to hide it (probably because his fortune has always been well under a billion dollars. He has been known in the past to randomly (and sometimes strategically) throw out wild net worth numbers that have no connection to obvious assets. And there is no clear handle on what debt he still has.
Actually, it was published yesterday that Trump's organization gained a quarter million dollars in the first three months of his presidency just through expenditures by the Secret Service for the huge number of times the president went to one of his residential properties (like Mar-a-Lago) or went golfing. No idea where you get your wild numbers except for something that Trump might have said at one of his rallies. And he lies so much it is really impossible to tell what he really knows...
