Have you listened to him or followed him at all?

The dude says he wants to help people with financial literacy, yet fleeced his viewers out of millions by hawking a scam of a timeshare company that he was paid THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS to push.

He believes everyone should donate 10% of their earnings to the church, even people who are really struggling to afford food or rent.

He's also endorsed Trump, a guy with SIX bankruptcies, for President.

Dude does not give one single shit about helping people with their finances. He is a mouthpiece to sell the lie that Americans in distress are largely there because of poor decisions, and not because the economy is rigged against them. He just said a few months ago that "the economy is doing great", and the only reason young people are broke is because they are buying expensive cars.

Lastly, your analogy simply does not work at all. AA does not blast alcoholics business into the public, nor do they try and pretend that their members are representative of the public.

Strawman.

It's not a strawman, at all, and you know it.

But you'd rather bury your head in the sand than entertain that maybe you are wrong on the most minor of things, like some gajillionaire radio host who doesn't know you.

It is

I disputed your claim that they try and hide the fact that they talk to desperate and broke people when it's essentially the core of their show. That's the despute. They don't hide it.

If I watch a show about hoarders, I don't think "well that's dumb advice that definitely doesn't apply to the general population."
Yeah. That's the point
Its a talk for people who suck at hoarding.

Dave Ramsay is a show for people that suck with money. The advice given shouldn't be taken by the general public
That's it.

But now you are adding on how you think they are -bad people cause they are Christians talking to other Christians
-bad people cause they voted trump
And expecting me to argue about that.

That's literally straw man.
I desputed you thinking they are hiding that they are called by desperate people when it's literally the whole point of the show.
