    One of the grandest ironies of our time is we have a president unsuited for the job not because he thought he'd get the job but because enough Americans believed he was serious. Michael Wolff's book makes a few things clear, Trump didn't want to win and everyone around him including family thinks of him as a mental child. Melania even cried. Anyone who moves among the well to do in America sees this personality often, they are the libertarian types who take privileged society as a given and for them they lack the insight, education and experience to even see that others live in another world. The lack of compassion and consideration is evident everywhere in the upper classes, with exceptions of course. 'White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America' by Nancy Isenberg covers our unacknowledged history and 'I Know Why Poor Whites Chant Trump, Trump, Trump' by Jonna Ivin provides insight too.

    When someone calls themselves a genius and mentally stable, it makes me question both.

    Rump called himself, "Like, really smart."

    This headline could actually pass with flying colors in The Onion

    Trump Defends His Mental Capacity, Calling Himself a ‘Very Stable Genius’
    Good God, this is really quite unbelievable. I get this very palpable sense that we are through the looking glass now, where we have a president who is obviously mentally unstable, and there are 30 million Americans pretending they can't see it and are cheerleading him on.

    Blue Blood Lefties hate the blue collar, working class Whites

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    People think he is such a great success, but how many of them, if given money, as Trump was, could have done as well or better with that kind of money?

    Trumps own brother drank himself to death with all that money.

    You are right.
    I have never believed in the "self made millionaire" premise, which happens so rarely as to be statistically inconsequential.
