- Since at least 2004, Trump has issued financial statements boasting of his billions in assets.
- The most recent was sent out in 2021, just as NY officials began publicly calling them fraudulent.
- A fraud monitor now says Trump “does not intend to develop any estimations of value” going forward.
What’s the news here? I have yet to see him make any statements of worth.
Hell I have yet to see him have worth.
Let’s try to be fair here. He’s at least worth the cost of incarceration for as many years as he has left.
Many human organs have monetary value, as does plasma and other components, even if the source is less than ideal.
So every year he just publicly comes out and says how rich he thinks he is? And people care to listen? Lol. Why would that have any value to anyone other than him.
Also he’s stopping because there is a good chance the things inside are all fraudulent and he might get in trouble?
Because there are a lot of dumb people who fell for the grift and now large swathes of society equate wealth with intelligence and morality. They fail, miserably, to see how obscene wealth is gained through exploitation.
Sorry, but there’s a very long history of people conflating wealth with god’s blessing (and therefore righteousness, moral integrity and generally being “good”).
Since at least as long as the book of Job (early Bronze Age?) as the sudden reverses in Job’s fortunes were seen as displeasure etc.
(The book of job is a Bronze Age attempt by a narcissist to explain the problem of evil. Basically? “You can’t possibly understand me.”)
Ah, I mean the grift that’s as old as time, not this specific one.
Well yeah, probably because he doesn’t know the right answer. Is he going for a loan? He’s richer than Mansa Musa? Are the Feds trying to make him pay taxes? He’s virtually bankrupt
The house looking like a rummage sale
broke bitch
