Lets look at his tax returns...... oh right, he won't release them. wonder why?
How many homes does he own? Four? How much did his wife steal from her university? He made over $1M in 2016, and that doesn't include his wifes graft.
He ain't no pauper.

It's on a rollercoaster ride right now. If the market gets a whif that the tarrifs may be called off, it rises. But trump has been fairly clear they will happen; it's the white house and cabinet that are trying to ease fears.
But volatility has its own rewards. By themselves, extreme swings can bring about a crash. Look back to '87. The market was swinging wildly, and it finally gave up and put the money on the sidelines prompting a major crash. Of course, there were underlying imperfections, but we have those now as well.
It's almost as if trump is trying to crash the economy. From the ruins I'm sure he will reap profit. Emergency declarations, suspension of rules, massive spending bills, PRIVATIZATION, all funneled through his cronies.
Is $12B a small number?..a number they’ll never see any of?
Where do you think those tax cuts to the top 1% that aren’t paid for, paid?

Interesting observation from Bill Palmer of the Palmer Report (emphasis mine): http://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/jeff-bezos-amazon-trump-reason/9249/
Everyone says “follow the money” so that’s what I did. I asked how many billionaires are there on earth. In March of 2018, Forbes estimated the answer to be 2,208 with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos listed as the richest person in the world with a net worth of $112 billion. This helps explain “President” Donald Trump’s sudden attacks against Amazon. Jeff Bezos was recently named the richest man in the world and Trump personally blames him for his own diminishing fortune.
Next, I wanted to know how many billionaires are in Russia. Forbes recently reported that number to be 96. After that, I wanted to know how they made their fortunes. What I found was that the overwhelming majority of billionaires in Russia have made their fortunes through Oil, Gas, Steel and Coal.
Now it’s easier to understand why Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin want to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement. Look at who it will hurt and who it will help. Hint: It’s a painful outlook for the United States but, it would go a long way to help 96 Russian Billionaires and two Russian dictators who are poised to take over the exact markets that Trump wants to “fix” at the expense of “nearly every single American” and in Putin’s eyes, help make Russia great again.

That’s how Elaine Chao’s daddy makes money..that and dope running of course..Secretary of Transportation?
Give me the brock. Such wild and crazy Americans (Czech Brothers) cannot figure this out..Yes but if it were that simple this would be over by now.
This is the true Pandora’s box and further I dig, the further I cannot ‘unknow’..
Sometimes I wish my biggest problem is if I could get chicks for less than .50 per chick while driving along US 70 looking at Jesus signs.

Again. I never mentioned taxes or called 12 billion small or said one way or the other about how I feel about them paying taxes they will never see.

What is the point? You are not making a bit of sense.
You made a claim about farms. I claimed otherwise. You then start in on another subject.
almost?

There are days like this one where she demonstrates the inability to hold on to a line of discussion. Yesterday it was immigrant labor, today it's tax cuts. There is no connection and so you are right to ask, when you talked about farm labor why she talked about tax cuts.
Sorry, I don't do crazy and so can't explain. Her explanation won't be one either.
