Lol, Trump is only a billionaire because he has the US Treasury. Without that, he's very likely broke.

The Trump family has made a billion dollars every month he’s been in office

They are reaping money from the poor.

Do not discount how much wealth they are gaining from being in power, regardless of the treasury. They are sweeping property acquisitions among all their other methods of making money.

My comment was literally saying that the only wealth he has was because he's in power.

He wasn't a billionaire before becoming president, but he certainly is now. The grifting has been blatant and enormous.
