ASSuming, of course, that DJT has as much money as he claims to have (which is extremely unlikely, according to expert economists etc)

Sure, he's probably exaggerating his wealth. But the logic holds. If Jr. was going to get $150 million, it'll be $300 million if plan passes

Leave out Trump's name. Why should the Gov't tax wealth be that's already been taxed when it was earned? Don't say 'because Feds need it'

That's the argument behind almost all taxation. Benefits the public interest, less disruptive than alternative methods of raising revenue.

Whose public interest? Whatever support there is for the death tax is based on jealousy & greed.

Does International Relations include a course of study in Trusts and Estates?

A whole course? No. That'd be too narrow a focus for IR. But US law is easy to look up. Estate tax = 40% of inheritances over $5 million.

If DT is actually worth what he claims. Most financial analysts say no way. However double ofvsomething still counts.
