because that is exactly how mundane and innocuous a speech at Goldman Sachs for "serious Tubman's" would be!

"Leader of the free world" doesn't pay all that well compared to the private sector.

This year he does speeches for free. Next year he can do the same speech for huge sums of money!

Of course, nobody will give a shit - he'll have no one running against him!
