That analogy likely works really well when aimed at those lacking either the intellect, time or desire to consider it's validity. It's a nice little catchy 'soundbite' for a talking head to blurt out in interrupting another talking head while attempting to gain 'control' of a 'conversation' and cause drooling viewers to focus on his face for a few flighting seconds at which point some other talking head will attempt to successfully repeat the very same process. Seems like it would also work well as 'click bait'. So nice work if you're the one who actually came up with it as it does have some value.

Unfortunately it's flawed as achievements should be measured relative to goals.

When Trump got his money his goal was to make a splash doing real estate in Manhattan and beyond.

I don't know much about Blizerian but from what I gather it's entirely possible that becoming 'internet famous' and fucking as many Instagram hookers as humanly possible were two of his primary goals.

You can judge their goals all you want but the fact is both have been extremely successful relative to their goals, maybe even equally, so the analogy is total bullshit. Sorry.
