Are you envious of Donald Trump?

Some people are getting very upset because of Trump's new limited edition sneakers. They feature a five-star American flag, a defiant image of Trump, and inspiring words from him.

Trump is a very successful man, and the attempted assassination has only led to more success for him. He survived, and he is celebrating that by releasing these shoes. They symbolize the events of the day, and show him surviving being shot. Are people envious of his success? Are they envious they cannot do the same?

Trump is an angry old man with a life expectancy of 9 years, whose wife despises him and who never recovered from the childhood trauma of his dysfunctional family. Most of us have decades of love and adventure in front of us. No, I don't envy him.

BTW, the key to his success was inheriting about $400 million from his father. Thus his "success" is mostly an accident of birth.

Nine years? This seems very precise. Are you planning to assassinate him too? Why wait that long?

How do you know his wife despises him? She appears very glad he survived.

“Thus his "success" is mostly an accident of birth.”

And? It is still success in the eyes of many people. Is it his fault he was born into money?

The US actuarial tables are even more precise. You don't have those tables in Russia?

Her behavior over the last 3.5 years. Actions speak louder than words.

Is it his fault he was born into money?

No, it's his fault he lies and pretends he made it all himself.
