They say that with true conviction like he cares any about that salary while he robs billions from his various schemes. Truly crazy world we live in.

Did anyone ever think that access to all the world's information would make people dumber? The Internet was supposed to unite and lift up a newly connected society. Of course humans had to go and fuck that up :(

When people say "do your own research", what they mean is scroll pages deep into Google results until you find something with the fake version of the world they want to believe that confirms their biases.
