I'm sure trump and his supporters will cry, Fake News.
Trump's net worth drops $600 million on Forbes' rich list, falls 92 spots - Oct. 17, 2017

The Forbes list of 400 richest Americans shows that the billionaire-in-chief's fortune fell by $600 million to $3.1 billion. As a result he dropped to #248 on the list, after coming in at #156 last year.
The magazine attributed his decline in wealth to "a tough New York real estate market, particularly for retail locations; a costly lawsuit and an expensive presidential campaign." Trump reached a $25 million settlement in a suit that claims that his Trump University real estate seminars defrauded students.

An expensive election campaign? But the left said he was making money off the elections...

wrong again..

btw, wealth is speculative, which is why the lefts attack against the wealthy is asinine..

All Trump has to do is provide his tax returns from the last 10 years to prove if this is fake news or not.

no drop at all because Forbes never had him anywhere near 10 billion..

much if that $10 billion was intellectual property, and goodwill value.. not real value

Hopefully this bad news won't distract him from his responsibilities of being the most powerful man in the world. I think he thought he could keep the empire afloat while "golfing" on the weekends.

We thought he would be able to make money, but it turns out he's a worse businessman the previously thought

i guess this puts a bit of crimp in the leftist claims that he's enriching himself in office?
