I know people with 1/1000th of the resources Donny has and can multitask better than him

There are scores of laid-off people still finding ways to get by right now.

My mother raised two siblings and me, almost by herself (Father is not a deadbeat by any means, but this was a single parent house), to adulthood and all of us are today college-educated with careers.

That's the situation for how many of us? Dealing with groceries AND rent, raising kids AND dealing with even more immature people at work, paying bills AND going to college...

... and doing it all without a chief of staff, without deputies, without advisers, without those advisers having advisers, without "acting secretaries", without yes-men, without gofers getting us coffee and food on-demand, without people setting up our agendas for the day, without intelligence and law enforcement agencies on speed dial, without right-wing evangelicals laying their hands on us and assuring us that God is on our side, without Fox News and One America News giving us softball questions, and without a billion dollars (supposedly).

And you're telling me this guy can't do two things at the same time?

Really?
