Donald Trump Jr. Reveals Why He Lived Off Gas Station Sushi For A Year

Former President Donald Trump's son Donald Trump Jr. recalled the time when he was done with college and was financially cut off by his family.

Trump Jr. told was speaking to Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene about Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez when he opened up about living off gas station sushi for a year after graduating college.

Ocasio-Cortez had previously worked as a bartender. Trump Jr. And Greene discussed how they think that does not qualify her to make high-level financial decisions.

He told Greene that he had also worked as a bartender when he moved to Colorado. He took up the job right after graduating from the Wharton School of Finance to "get some stuff out of my system." He said that it was a "brutal" conversation telling his father, a businessman-turned-politician, that he didn't want to start working immediately.

He joked that it "went over very well," and that he "was cut off, the only thing that they didn't cut off because they forgot was my gas card." So, Trump Jr. had a "car and a gas card." He described himself as the "guy that lived off gas station sushi for like a year."

He shared that his experience as a bartender didn't qualify him to make "trillion-dollar decisions." It also didn't help him to be seen as a "great financial thought leader as they do with AOC."
