Those vandals aren't running for president though.

How could you possibly think Trump's net worth is below zero?

How can anyone actually deny he sounds like an idiot when he talks? I mean, even if you agree with him and like what he's doing, you have to agree his buffoonery is an embarrassment.

From the article~The fact that he’s sold several of his assets—including up to $7 million in fund assets and $9 million in individual securities—to cover his campaign debt suggests that he probably doesn’t have enough cash on hand to easily cover the costs of his campaign outright. That’s not something one would expect from a man who claims he is worth “in excess of TEN BILLION DOLLARS” (the capitalization is Trump’s). In addition, the real estate mogul has added over $50 million in debt to his ledger, Politico reports, putting his total debt somewhere between $315 million and $500 million, and possibly more.


“If he is swimming in so much cash for all his holdings, why is he selling this stuff to raise cash?” one anonymous, fellow elite asked Politico, apparently rhetorically. “You would see that he doesn’t have the money that he claims to have and he’s not paying much of anything in taxes,” a hedge-fund manager, also anonymous to avoid Trump’s wrath, told the news outlet.


Judging from several recent moves, Trump sure looks like he’s trying to protect his money. On Tuesday, The Guardian reported that Trump was moving his trademarks to Delaware, America’s office park-***-tax haven, to avoid paying taxes on his name brand. And just hours later, Trump blew up at reporters during a press conference in which he boasted about how much money he had given veterans’ organizations, and then criticized the media when they questioned his motivations. “I wanted to keep it private, if we could, I wanted to keep it private, because I don’t think it’s anybody’s business if I want to send money to the vets,” said Trump, who allegedly raised the money when he publicly skipped a Fox presidential debate to hold a televised fundraiser instead. (A subsequent AP report revealed that a significant number of those charities only received the money after the Washington Post ran an article questioning where the Trump donations went.)




Don't forget we are speaking of a nut-case phony who has a history of using assumed names such as John Baron to call journalist's to plant glowing false stories abut himself, including his self-inflated income, which he deflates when it comes tax time!

It's bad enough that we now have a total a** for a President, but he's a D-U-M-B A** to boot!
I know. Seriously. What kind of dumb as& goes around even talking about their IQ?! Or the IQ of their cabinet picks?? He's ridiculous. It's not the "media" making him look bad, regardless of how much he and his follows whine about it. HIS OWN WORDS are what makes him look so bad. Normal people do not say the things he says.

No one in his audience is a liberal.

Finance doesn't appear to be your strength. Net worth is NOT the same as cash on hand.
Net worth = assets - liabilities. If Trump's buildings are worth more than his debt....then his net worth is greater than zero.


I do agree with you on Trump's charitable giving....he appears to be a cheapskate in this area. He's no Warren Buffett.
