The New York Times is really making it their life’s mission to dig up absolutely all of Donald Trump’s skeletons. Them and the Washington Post are dropping bombshell after bombshell, and this last week, it was attacking Trump where it might just hurt the most: his money.  You see, the New York Times did a deep, deep dive into the origins of Donald Trump’s wealth.  As it turns out, his story that he’s a self-made man minus a small loan from his father (that he paid back with interest), ISN’T actually accurate.  At all apparently.  Based on mountains of unearthed documents, both public record and not, Trump’s money is the result of creatively helping his dad defraud the government and the gifts he got as a result of that and his inheritance.  As a result, adjusted for inflation, a great deal of his fortune, to the tune of half a billion smackeroos, was a result of Fred Trump looking out for him.  Which makes a lot of sense.  Despite what he wants his supporters to believe, Trump knows a thing or two about failing in business.  His business history is one of failure, bailouts, and self aggrandizement.  Learning that a good portion of his wealth was essentially a handout comes as no surprise, but at the same time, betrays the image he hopes to project.  Because as it turns out, he’s not the shrewd business man, making money with his wits and cleverness.  He’s a nitwit who fails upward.
