There’s four paths to prosperity anymore for your average citizen, but one is, by most appearances, for “ladies only”
1- Powerball
2- MegaMillions
3- Elections work that results in a payout from The Donald J Trump Hair Club for Menzzzzz
4- Get groped or molested or raped by Trumped and prove it in court, unlike Cray Cray Nancy Mace always claiming she was raped but the lady proven repeatedly in civil court to have been sexually assault by Donald ZZZZZ Trump wasn’t because civil court isn’t criminal court, but Nancy Mace’s so-called rapist didn’t even go to ANY court whatsoever. Nancy Mace, by her own rules, is a liar, so make sure not to be a liar like Nancy Mace. Make sure you prove it and you, too, can live the lifestyle of the rich and famous.

United States of America’s path to prosperity:
Step 1: Be born into a wealthy, connected family.
Step 2: Leverage the family name and family money. No matter how incompetent and/or crooked you might be, no worries, this can still work for you, despite you.
