If you are intelligent you wouldn’t need to talk about it because, people would know it from your thoughts and actions.
If you are a good leader you wouldn’t need to talk about it because there would be more people following you than protesting you.
If you are good at making deals you wouldn’t need to talk about it because you’d have a stack of deals to prove it.
If you are good at business you wouldn’t need to talk about it because you would have a lot more successful companies than bankrupt companies in your history.
Etc etc etc.
This smacks of “look how well things are going !!
If things were going badly would we be able to afford all this gold?”
Beware the man who is eager to tell you how good they are at something.
Will that may be true in itself, but why does he fixate on gold in his decor? I’d argue it is about the projection of success. His hotels for instance, he wants them to be seen to be the best in the world so he puts gold everywhere in sight because in his simplistic view, money equals success and gold is the most visual representation of money without actually being money. Just my take on the why behind him liking shiny gold things. He’s just importing it to the white house now.
This is kinda funny to share, but i had a customer a while back that told me he met Trump while doing work on one of his properties.
He was actually in the process of installing/gilding gold leaf on some of the entrance’s facade when he claims he actually saw Trump with Marla Maples at like 1am or something. He said Trump stopped to criticize their work and warn him not to lose so much as a flake of that gold leaf. He apparently argued with him for a little while before he finally left him alone. I don’t have any reason to disbelieve this guy, but i also realize I’m a guy on the internet passing along a story i heard. It just rings so true to his personality that i have no trouble believing it.
My guess is that since he said he hasn’t changed as a person since 3rd grade that his mom or someone else decorated their house with shit from Home Interiors (like Tupperware parties for home decor).
Either that or he’s copying some dictator he saw on TV 60 years ago.
I know people that like Trump in the UK and the thing I’ve realised is people don’t check anything, if orange man says something they believe it.
When I’ve been shitting on Trump my friend said yeah but he’s a good business man though and I’m like no he isn’t, he started life on easy mode and has messed that up several times. Hell man can’t even profit from a casino.
Sadly though it doesn’t matter if people are willing to believe a 5 second sound bite and it takes 5 minutes and some knowledge to debunk that claim then it’s futile as they’ll just put out more sound bites.
I find it ironic that in a world with a wealth of information at our finger tips people just don’t care enough to check. I’m not a smart man, but I was gifted with the power of curiosity and a willingness to look up stuff and find the truth. People are just ignorant on the whole and only care about surface level stuff.

Donald Trump just has awful taste. He want to surround himself with shiny “gold” things and always has.

He got the apprentice because all the real businessmen were busy. No joke.
