Trump has always had money, lived in NYC. He does not know your life. He pretends to but he doesn't have a clue.
Trump has boasted in rallies that he is better than others because he has more money.

But folks are so blinded by their support (mostly because he's a Republican) that they don't hear that - they hear him say something goofy -- call someone a name -- and they say -- he's just like me...a normal guy.
No he is not a normal guy.
It’s because he’s an unapologetic A**hole. Some folks just love that.
The numbers show that in 1985, Mr. Trump reported losses of $46.1 million from his core businesses — largely casinos, hotels and retail space in apartment buildings. They continued to lose money every year, totaling $1.17 billion in losses for the decade.
In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer, The Times found when it compared his results with detailed information the I.R.S. compiles on an annual sampling of high-income earners. His core business losses in 1990 and 1991 — more than $250 million each year — were more than double those of the nearest taxpayers in the I.R.S. information for those years.
Ohhh the irony. Moderator cut: trolling/flaming Most dispassionate folks knew something was amiss when this guy that brags so much about how rich he is would never provide proof. The guy deserves public housing behind bars.
He's a billionaire, President and his detractors are butthurt idiots...so there is that to consider as well.

Pretty weak response to that article and how do you even know he’s a billionaire. This is really not shocking news to anyone that has followed Trump over the years, he has been a phony. Looks like the only thing he was good at over those years was draining his fathers wealth and avoiding taxes.
So much for all the so called winning.There never was any winning. Just a spin to cover up for all the loss he had. A fraud spun to be the greatest businessman ever. It does answer so many questions. All his lawsuits to block the truth.

They know it because Trump told them it’s true... and they believed him.

Agree. The President of the United States of America pulled off the biggest con job of the century. He won that title.

Doesn't anybody understand what a "paper loss" is?
It's quite easy for a real estate owner/developer to technically show a loss for the year on their financial statement, especially after depreciation and all expenses are factored in. Then they don't owe any tax, and yet still continue to pay themselves, operate the business, and watch it appreciate in value.
People that that are W-2 employees just don't understand this.
