Some Modest Financial and Career Advice for Donald Trump

April 27, 2017

Dear Don,

I hear from the LMS (Lying Media Scum) at CNN, the New York Times, MSNBC, ETC, that your main motivation for proposing tax cuts is so that you could make more income.  It was the top-of-the-page headline in the Times today, so it must be true.  But Don, if you wanted to increase your income, first of all, you should have taken a salary as president.  And since you have free digs in DC, think of the rental income you could earn on Mara Lago and your Trump Tower penthouse.  Think opportunity cost.  But more importantly, if you really wanted to make a lot more money you should have remained in the real estate development business and stayed away from politics. That would have been the most important thing.

If you’d like to talk about employing me as your life coach, let’s do lunch.

All the best to Melania and the family,

Tom DiLorenzo
