Sure, granted. On that point though, it’s also well-known that he bought a vanity New Zealand passport for the very reasons laid out in the article.
"bought a vanity passport"? I've never heard that; my understanding is that he got a passport via the investment route, probably as a hedge in case he doesn't want to live in US any more, or because he likes NZ.
What even is a "vanity passport"? Sealand maybe?
The reasons laid out in the article have nothing to do with vanity, so which is it?
