The dude looks like he keeps a half billion in cash on him at all times to try and buy his way out of the angry mob(s) that will eventually come for him... Because he's that much of a doucher.

What's really insane is that even with all his money, the best he can do for a wife is some kind of plastic surgery experiment that looks like it came out of the Tool Prison Sex music video.

Just so afraid of losing a small amount of the fortune he can't spend in his lifetime, that he's given up the true power that comes with that type of wealth. The power to help

Hey, talk for yourself, there are a lot of us who would love to be married to anything from a Tool video, and we don't like being insulted

Maybe this will show him that you can't buy Trumps loyalty because he has no loyalty. However, I have my doubts that even Trump going from going from "My good buddy Bezos" to "Amazon is the enemy" in the course of a day will be enough of a object lesson for Bozos.

I know, but but even so the whiplash move from "best buddy" to "enemies list" (and probably back again after this capitulation) should tell anyone who wants to ally with Trump what a futile of a move that is. It doesn't matter how much you schmooze him, how give him, or how much he owes you; the moment you're not useful to him Trump will throw you under the bus.
