Yep, I have labelled Trump a racist bigot, a narcissist, a financial failure and a sexual predator. Happy for you to prove me otherwise. Go ahead.

Perhaps if you first provide proof of your labels, I will then attempt a rebuttal.
Having called 48% of the US fools, you have already provided proof of your bigotry.

The worst thing about the US election is that it wasn't won or lost on the strength of a cantidates platform and campaign but because of how awful the opposition was.
Happy to stand by my statement. So are you. Play on!

Once again you are misrepresenting my comment. I no way did I suggest sexual assault wasn't vile. In no way was that the point of the discussion either. You have gone on a tangent and I feel you are behaving fairly disingenuously with your remarks.
I would appreciate it if you would just leave it there.
That is always the case here, why should it be different there?
This is the very reason Trump won.
Chin up Maddog, nobody serious thought you were saying sexual assault was okay.

I wonder how many punters are still going to dig donald when he bullies the fed into raising interest rates and adds thousands to everyone's mortgage.
Wall street is going to have a giant tantrum about this for a while.

Seems Trump has already backpedalled on the wall and muslim immigration.
Both policies have gone to Hillary's position of fencing and background checks.
Ahh another corporately owned lying president. I'm already comfortable with Trump in the Whitehouse .

He's a big wrestling fan and was pretty obviously playing the heel or "Steve Austin babyface".
I know I and others touched on this but this guy nails it perfectly...

Not a wrestling fan but I watched the resurrection of Jake the Snake the other day. Good stuff.

If he's a financial failure then I wanna be one too!
As long as you don't mind going bankrupt 4 times in your
life and ripping off thousands of workers and students of 'Trump University' - fill your boots

Not close to a financial failure.
Corporate bankruptcy is a tool used by financial firms all the time to restructure their assets. A person that runs enough companies will have a 99% chance of having to declare a corporate bankruptcy in one or some of their companies.
Turning an inheritance of $10m to $10b is a legit achievement as they come and possibly exceeds the market rate during the relevant time period. Only a small handful of professionals that work in the financial industry can beat the market over a sustained period of time.
He is a narcissist 100%, unlikely a sexual predator and probably not a racist/bigot though.

So how about that Aussie cricket team...
Based on what I've read:
He inherited $40m and his father had an estimated net worth was $200m, back in the 70s. He's now worth between $2.9B to $4.1B according to Bloomberg & Forbes.
His net worth in 1978 was estimated at $100m. If he'd simply put that sum into an index fund based on S&P's 500 index it would be worth $6B today.
With access to his father's enormous credit and assets and his father's relationships he's ostensibly managed to perform worse than just dumping the money in a Fortune 500 index.
He's obviously made some good property investments, but you could say that about half of Melbourne these days. I'd say a fair percentage of people could do what he's done given a similar head start.

If it gets me a private jet, sign me up haha
Really good doco. Jake is one of a kind, feel sorry for the guy. If you want to see how far he's come give Beyond the Mat a watch if you haven't already.
My dad got pissed when I asked him for 2 bucks the other day.
