So he saved diligently on his salary and reached two million by the end of his long career. Which is not unheard of; most of us are lucky if we ever get to seven digits, but it's a reasonable stretch.

The billionaire made a career of ripping off contractors and had to be bailed out of bankruptcy several times. An oligarchic tax code and a lack of accountability for dishonest practice makes him a billionaire.

Is that the difference?

His salary being leaching off the taxpaper, while not having a single useful bill passed.

I keep trying to tell folks this! By the time Trump was two,he was already earning over $300,000 a year off of Papa's investments. He was born rich & went through Daddy's money as fast as he could.
In fact Trump is such a LOUSY businessman, that if he hadn't LOST & ruined so many businesses,he would have been MUCH better off financially today had he simply had let his father's investments accrue interest!
The result of being such a crappy businessman meant he learned 2 exploit folks for $$ so he could live like a king while others suffered for his greed.
His tenants,his employees,his contractors & business partners,& American taxpayers ALL paid!
6 bankruptcies to avoid paying creditor,countless failed businesses, made other businesses fail by cheating them,yeah,WHAT a winner!
Trump is such a rotten businessman,he's willing to do ANYTHING to get more $$$& power .even to betray his own nation.

to compare trump,and his 40+ years of:fraud,bribery,grifting etc etc as somehow being the pinnacle of capitalist morality.

to a man who has fought for human rights,dignity and community since martin luther king days,but wrote a book.

really stretches the bounds of logical comparison.

admiring trump for his achievements is totally fine,as is admiring Bernie,but to make a gross comparison that somehow one is noble and the other ignoble is intellectually dishonest.

both can be criticized,but they do not reside in the same pond.

One actually cares about and has been fighting for Americans rights and freedoms for his entire career and the other one is Trump.

LOL...the moron strikes again. Laughs about other people's sources, then posts OPINION articles as a source. But not to ignore content let's take a look.

"It's impossible to say because federal disclosure laws don't require an accounting of where his businesses get their money"

That's from the article. So Trump is raking in money, but we don't for sure because why? WE DONT HAVE THE FACTS TO SUPPORT OUR OPINION.

This argument about Trump violating the Emoluments Clause has already been dismissed in the courts.

Please, like I said, these things are over your head.

Perhaps, your writing is unclear...."do you think Clinton should have been charged"...I assumed you were talking about his impeachment. On that, he was charged with perjury.

Contrast to Trump, who has committed NO CRIME. hence, I don't see why, in the absence of a crime, Trump should be charged.

I guess there is no law REQUIRING a Presidential Candidate to turn over his taxes, which is why HE IS NOT HIDING THEM. He simply is not legally required to turn the over

Trump has spent a lifetime exploiting loopholes & gray areas. There's only one reason he's refusing to release them. Everyone knows that money trails can be incriminating. Even if they require forensic accountants to uncover the sources(like Manaforts crypto-currency/shell corporation/ stolen ID contributions that poured into Trump campaign coffers from Russian sources) eventually money trails lead to places Trump doesn't want to let investigators go.

"There's only one reason he's refusing to release them. Everyone knows that money trails can be incriminating"

This so incredibly absurd. So the only reason Trump is keeping his tax returns private is because they are incriminating?

Just so we are clear: The government has seen his tax returns. The IRS is the government. It's not as if you submit a tax return to the IRS and they don't review it. So this theory that he is hiding his taxes from the Government is beyond stupid.

Also, the reason he has not turned over his taxes, is because there IS NO LAW THAT REQUIRES HIM TO DO SO.

Oh look, he has put forth logic. Let's explore this rationale as a class shall we.

The person who has the most "stuff" is the smartest. Okay.

By your logic, Donal Trump, who you refer to as Donny Dipshit, has accumulated far more "stuff" than you, therefore, Donny Dipshit is smarter than you.

Further, Paris Hilton is smarter than you, and the list goes on and on.

Do you see the flaw in your logic? What am I saying, of course you don't. Perhaps next you will want to proclaim the person who takes the largest craps is the smartest. It might actually be a more defensible argument.

It doesnt matter whether not they inherited anything. Your logic predicates superiority of intelligence based on the quantity of one's stuff.

Now you don't like your own reasoning, because you inadvertently admitted that Donny Dipshit is smarter than you are.

You really couldn't be that naive,could you? Do you really think what records the government gets to see of Donnie's are the entire story?? We don't know what the government is given as Trumps records. He's got fancy lawyers & accountants protecting his interests. He admits he doesn't FILE income tax so what records does the govt have access to besides his purchases & the bank account he has in his own name vs. the many shell corporations that Trump probably really does business under? Just as GeoCorp managed to violate campaign contribution law amount limits by using others names,so can Trump buy properties under shielded shell corporations that aren't as easy to trace back to him.

Oh Lord..."He admits he doesn't FILE income tax so what records does the govt have access to besides his purchases & the bank account he has in his own name vs. the many shell corporations that Trump probably really does business under?"

Show me where he admitted he "DOES NOT FILE INCOME TAXES"?

"He's got fancy lawyers & accountants protecting his interests"...Whoa look out. It's as if, Trump is the only person with tax attorneys. LOL.

"Trump buy properties under shielded shell corporations that aren't as easy to trace back to him." -- Everyone can do this moron. Shell corporations are not ILLEGAL.

Do you ALWAYS think it's acceptable to do morally reprehensible things as long as the current laws are not in violation?
Trump violates laws with impunity,& keeps platoons of lawyers for defense.
I never said "shell corporations were illegal" I said they were part of a suspicious pattern of concealment in this case.
Insufficient evidence to charge Trump because his underlings fell on their swords is NOT innocence!
If you bestir yourself 2 Google it ,you will see that Trump admitted he hasnt filed income tax returns since 1996,when he claimed a huge loss of over $900 million. Thats oh...say 23 years now?

Trumps attempts to halt the Mueller investigation could be construed as obstruction of justice.
What about the countless campaign finance laws Trump violated?
What about his violation of antitrust laws & his misuse of public funds for his own private extravagances?(a pattern followed by every member of his cabinet, it seems! )
Btw he violated national security regulations by having his kids sit in meetings with world leaders w/out proper security clearances.
He also violated financial laws by having his kids,who run his businesses,take advantage of information that they obtained during those meetings to gain financial concessions,as well as to buy or sell stock according to information they were privy to. Can you grok the concept of "conflict of interests"?

You can't even keep your narrative straight for consecutive sentences.

”Do you ALWAYS think it's acceptable to do morally reprehensible things as long as the current laws are not in violation?
Trump violates laws with impunity,& keeps platoons of lawyers for defense. "

Your first sentence implies that Trump hasn't broken the law, but your second sentence states he does break the law.

Your TDS level is at dangerously high levels.

Nothing in your post is factual at all. This is why you provide no evidence of his violations of any laws you claim.

Seek help.

Good thing he doesn't have to prove his innocence, you have to prove his guilt. All the rest of your nonsense is just that - nonsense.
