  • FWIW my Republican mate (who's clearly gone off the deep end) sees/saw him as the only person from outside the system with enough wealth to battle the inherent corruption of the system.

    That was what a load of people said about him early doors, and it's possibly not a stupid thing to believe if you were unhappy with the 'system' as it currently is. Wanting someone who, through either character or wealth, is incorruptable possibly still is an acceptable thing to want.

    But Christ, after four years you still think Trump is the one to cleanse politics? Please.

    Personally I suspect that the accumulation of extreme wealth is an indication that you cannot possibly be incorruptable, or that you have sound character.

  • accumulation of extreme wealth

    Donald Trump hasn't accumulated wealth. He was gifted it by his father and his performance has been "mediocre compared with the stock market and property in New York".

  • Donald Trump hasn't accumulated wealth

    Yeah - so in his case he's also incompetent :)

    Accumulation, ownership, proximity to, familiarity with - they're all likely symptoms of character flaws.
