according to CNN (not a PRO Trump network) reports that Trump Organization is America's 48th largest private company and made 9.5 billion in revenues last year and employs 22,450 people PrivCo. says.

Trump Organization is bigger than well-known private companies such as Major League Baseball, McKinsey & Co. and Bloomberg LP, the company founded by former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, according to PrivCo data.


Trump Organization is now America's 48th largest private company - Dec. 15, 2016



by the way, his personal taxes are a private matter and he is not "HIDING" anything....the I.R.S. and the New York Tax Revenue (which is run by Democrats in that state) has all of Trump's tax returns for decades, state and federal......If they have a problem that Trump violated any of the tax laws of the I.R.S. or the state of New York, they would have provided the evidence by now and be in the tax courts.....they haven't

Democrats tried it with Romney in 2012 and thought it will work on Trump and it failed.

How would 2 democrat hacks that campaigned for Hillary Clinton and were openly hostile to Trump during the campaign know anything about Trump's finances......jealousy? Trump's Organization is bigger and makes more revenues than Cuban and Bloomberg, so what do they know other than bashing Trump.

LMAO...please.

I don't care about what time he put in. What did he DO with that time? Did he serve his country, or run campaigns.

you dont like trump and i get that, i am not a huge fan of his either, but i will at elast give crdit where credit is due. until you come up with something that is not anti-trump that proves he is not a billionaire, i will at least listen, until then not so much.
Of course you're a huge fan. Stop it.

What accounts for the 7 billion dollar discrepancy between Trump's claim and Forbes' report?

We'd comment on his current finances but we don't have recent tax returns because Trump refuses to release them.

I've said time and time again that Trump isn't a billionaire. I've seen no evidence of it, and neither has anyone else that I know of...at least, not anyone with the full picture of his finances. Such billionaires as Mark Cuban and Mike Bloomberg have made it very clear that they don't believe that he's anywhere close to being a billionaire. Trump is obviously hiding something. Sure, we know what he owns, but no one...Forbes included (who estimated that he's worth 3.5 billion), knows what his debts are. And without that info, no real estimate can be trusted.

Not to mention that he had to sell some assets in order to raise campaign cash. He's got no real liquidity that I've heard of.

This video is VERY interesting. So all of you who claim that Trump really is a billionaire, what do you place against this?

Who cares if Trump is a billionaire or has 'only' $100 million to his name.
In the grand scheme - to borrow a phrase from Crooked Hillary -- what difference does it make??
This stuff is nothing more than a circus side show. Trump will be judged on what he gets done between now and 2020. If he does a good job, he will be re-elected. If not - he's out.

Why not? The right dragged up what Obama did as a teenager, Hillary's 1975 rape case, etc.

Y'all cared about John Kerry's Vietnam war service more than 30 years later...you included.

So I care about this.
