I'm completely prepared to see some "out of touch" takes from rich kids. It's just the nature of the world they grew up in. I wish I knew the problems of managing my own business, and cycling between financial investments at the appropriate time. You'd expect him to say something silly every once in a while like, "just get a $250,000 loan", but instead Trump raised his kids to be smart and a bit humble, and Baron seems to be the one that is most humble and kind. DJT Jr, is very much like his father, but seems to be much more eloquent. Contrast that with Democrat kids like Hunter, or even other rich people like Elon.
This is one of the huge reasons I like JD Vance. He really did grow up as trailer trash with a drug abusing mom, but is the diamond in the rough that grew up fast, was highly intelligent, kept a good head on his shoulders, didn't get demoralized, and managed to get a rich patron to keep him climbing a ladder that most people never get, let alone see. I know dozens of people like him, and most are still struggling to own their first house. His experience is fucking ALIEN to anyone in Donald Trump's world. They do not have a reference point to the anything like of "picking up your mother from the police station because her boyfriend dumped her, got the police called on her, she hit a cop, and now you're gonna be late to school/work". But the horrible truth is that is real life for a lot of poor, post-industrial, working white class communities destroyed by Leftist economic policies, social policies, and de-industrialization.
It reminds me a bit of that time when Van Jones interviewed a family of poor whites out of Stubensville, OH after the 2016 election. Stubensville is a town shattered from the loss of industry (another midwest city coal & port city with 50% population loss). They had to explain to him that the factories had long been shut down, and the family of 3 kids regularly had to hunt for sustainable food supplies, including squirrel and rabbit, because there's just not enough money to pay for groceries when you have full family size of 5 working off of a $35,000 a year income. You could feel the room just have a simultaneous 404 error among the NPC's going "but how can white people be poor?" and "people have to hunt for food in the US?"
They just don't get it.
