Fake billionaire Trump bashed real billionaire "little Michael Bloomberg" on Twitter this morning.






I think Donald Trump is jealous of Michael Bloomberg.

Michael Bloomberg grew up in a lower-middle class family. His father was a bookkeeper. Now he's the 8th richest man on the whole entire planet. He revolutionized the world with the Bloomberg Terminal. He's the founder and CEO of a multi-billion dollar media/technology company. He was also a very successful 3 term mayor of NYC. Michael Bloomberg is worth $46.7 billion. He's AT LEAST 10x richer than Trump.

On the other hand, Trump grew up in an extremely rich family. He inherited at least $100 million-$300 million from his father. He has a terrible business record and is obviously lying about his net worth. Trump is absolutely not worth $4.5 billion. He's probably worth $250 million MAX. Lyin' Donald!

I haven't seen any actual evidence to suggest Trump isn't actually a billionaire, first things first.

Otherwise, what a joke. Bloomberg is everything Trump claims to be-- a self-made entrepreneur, someone with a net worth in the tens of billions and (still!) rising, a generous philanthropist, a successful politician, in-demand in the most rarefied parts of Society. Bloomie has done everything Trump wishes he could, so he's left to knock Bloomberg, like a child, on the only thing he can-- his height. I bet every night, Trump goes to sleep wishing he was like Bloomberg, Buffett, the Kochs, Li Ka-Shing, and so forth; that he lived up to his own hype.

Bloomberg's last term as mayor was the exact opposite of a disaster, and if he actually ran for Mayor again (which he could, given that NYC term limits apply to consecutive terms) as I dearly wish he would, he would handily defeat de Blasio in a rout.

Because... being a billionaire is morally wrong, or what?

Because admiring wealth and valuing people based on their wealth is morally wrong.

lol going after a billionaire (and media mogul) richer than him and just giving more publicity to the original attacks. It's almost like he's a. . .

I don't think there's anything necessarily wrong with that-- given that wealth is used as a proxy, as it is in Bloomberg's case, for success in business-- but you throw me off further by adding "regardless of their politics"? Why can't billionaires be fawned over for their politics?

Furthermore, Trump is someone who definitely values people based on their wealth, and there's an irony one can appreciate in him attempting to denigrate someone who, by his own metric, ought to be considered his better.

I don't see success in business as something inherently deserving of praise. For every business(wo)man who made their wealth through socially useful activities, there is another who made it through shamefully parasitic ways (if anything, considering the way our modern economic system works, there are probably more of the latter).

Oh, sure, nothing wrong with that. I didn't mean people can't be admired for their stances. I kinda like Warren Buffet myself. I was just saying that Democrats shouldn't start worshiping "success" the way Republicans do just because a successful guy happen to support them.

Trump is a small, insecure, easily bated, baby-finger narcissist who must've hated being emasculated by a woman and one of his socioeconomic superiors. The entire DNC must have been an absolute nightmare for this shallow primadonna.

Can you imagine a Trump-Bloomberg debate? All Donald would have is personal insults if he couldn't talk about how much more wealth he had.

Well sure. But when it isn't "parasitic", there's no reason why that shouldn't be something to applaud and look up to. Unless you want to give Trump some suggestions, I think the idea that Bloomberg's career has been "parasitic" is transparently baseless. Not that you necessarily meant that, but it was implied...

I was just saying that Democrats shouldn't start worshiping "success" the way Republicans do just because a successful guy happen to support them.

One could have an endless philosophical debate on what constitutes "success", but I think that Republicans are not alone in placing great value in it, whatever it is.

the last year reported, Bloomberg gave about $645 Million to charity.

Trump gave about $10,000, and is one of the least charitable billionaires out there.

Bloomberg, out of exasperation, would probably end up challenging Trump to compare the size of their hands. Trump, being the stubby-fingered coward he is, would refuse, and Bloomberg would tell Trump to stop banging on about about his height if he doesn't want to talk about his hands. Tongue
