The DNC nominated Hillary Clinton, and Republican voters had to back Trump because he was the only one with a chance of beating her. Cruz would have been a better overall president, but he wouldn't have been able to defeat the Clinton machine.

so it's literally Hillary's fault that Republicans nominated Trump. gotcha

the party of personal responsibility isn't responsible for their own nomination. that's what im hearing right here.

Somehow I'm not surprised that Trump cultists are trying to push their leader off onto others. No longer proud to have elected him themselves. Times sure have changed in a year's time.

Nah. Plenty of people that voted for Trump made it pretty clear it was because he was the only one we had that would beat her.

Well the media and even people I know kept harping and pressing that the unemployment was low, the economy was great, great times were ahead, etc, etc. Even though labor participation rate was falling, and first time home buyers was at an all-time low, basically no one was buying a house. People do vote with their wallet.

"Fault' is not the right word. Trump was a great choice and is a fantastic president. He was just explaining why Republicans backed Trump.

how would you define very few? like every 3 out of 10 people? 2 out of 10?

how would you speculate the ratio being out of billions?

Yes.

There have been a whole lot of millionaires. But turning 1 million into multi-billions is no easy feat.

In case you don't know

1 billion = 1000 millions

Just think about it.

I'd guess that within the last 100 years there have been at most 5 people with Trump's level of genius and skill in business and investing.

I'm not saying it diminishes Trump's feats at all. I'm trying to see what you think about the average American because it doesn't seem like you think very highly of them. many/few...

I'd say many Americans could turn one million into multi billions under similar conditions. Donald Trump level? maybe not. but that's not the point.

let's say 1 million Americans were given a paid-for college ride, a million dollar investment to start and many decades of ventures. how many would have to become billionaires before few becomes many in your eyes?

I feel like 3/10 could be seen as many.

@RickyTheBAWSE

Millionaires in US = 5,372,441

Billionaires in US = 565

((565/5,372,441)*100) = 0.0105166348034348%

Hence a very fucking small percentage.

What kind of shitty education have you received or are you really just a shit-tier troll?

And for the record 60% of all new venture bushiness fail before the 10 year mark.

You don't have an argument here man. You're grasping on broken logic to discredit Trump from actually being successful.

I'm done arguing with you you're not even trying.

lolololol, there was never an argument. I asked specific questions and you gave me strawman responses to avoid answering the actual questions asked. expected of a coward.

you're so desperate to want to make your hero look so much greater than the average American, all you did was show you're emotionally unhinged.

the truth is, many people could have thrived under similar conditions.
