Is the dream over for the Dreamers?

I think you should question your perception of the qualities necessary to be a billionaire. It does not strike me as a contradiction at all. Not to say that they all have those qualities, just that the quality of being worthless is certainly a boon in certain fields.

He was mentored by Roy Cohn ffs.

Roy Cohn.



From Wikipedia:

Cohn and McCarthy targeted many government officials and cultural figures not only for suspected Communist sympathies, but also for alleged homosexuality.[42] McCarthy and Cohn were responsible for the firing of scores of gay men from government employment and strong-armed many opponents into silence using rumors of their homosexuality.[42][43] Former U.S. Senator Alan K. Simpson has written: "The so-called 'Red Scare' has been the main focus of most historians of that period of time. A lesser-known element ... and one that harmed far more people was the witch-hunt McCarthy and others conducted against homosexuals."[44]

Quoting close Trump adviser Roger Stone: Roger Stone, "Roy was not gay. He was a man who liked having sex with men. Gays were weak, effeminate. He always seemed to have these young blond boys around. It just wasn't discussed. He was interested in power and access."
Roy died of AIDs in 1986 in an apartment provided by Trump. He was one of the biggest scumballs in American history. Trump will see him in hell.
Those who grow up with all the money in the world somehow don't generally turn out to be very good human beings.

Warren Buffet's son is an exception which, if anything, proves the rule.

I think it really about the parents too, rich parents tend to be uninvolved. so rather then parent they think buying everything should be enough.

Growing up in an atmosphere of being able to order around or fire anyone but your parents and siblings is also corrosive to the goal of raising decent human beings.

Their are many that do. In the time of kings, it was quite common for there to be a pronounced difference in the mien of the first and subsequent children - especially sons.
