Ignoring the fact that itβs not even trueβ¦ My favorite part of the fallout from that quote were all the Trump supporters, most of whom will never see $1mil in total earnings across their lives, scrambling to defend it as if it were a perfectly reasonable thing to say.
Like, βIt's just because heβs so rich that a million dollars really does seem like a small loan!β
Sure, okay Jim-Bob, and youβre dumb enough to believe a guy whose concept of money is that warped gives a damn about you? lol
I don't disagree but 1m is 25k a year for 40 years. So yes, most of his supporters WILL earn 1m in their lives.
I can just underline that
