Sleazy Trump at it again. He lied to get on the Forbes 400 list. Drip, Drip, Drip. The audio recording of this conversation was given to CNN and the WH refused to comment

Washington (CNN)A former Forbes reporter claims that Donald Trump, before he was president, pretended to be a spokesman on his own behalf and then lied about his wealth in order to crack the Forbes 400 list.

Greenberg said Trump's actual net worth at the time was less than $5 million, though the magazine had listed it as $100 million for its first-ever Forbes 400 list.

While I have no doubts that Trump attempted to embellish his wealth, there is no doubt in my mind that if Trump is allowed to continue as president, he'll legitimately be on Forbes 400 list from using his office to line his own pockets.
 
Goes to show you can't believe what Forbes prints ... :lol:

And the unaaceptable part is that since Dick Cheney, the right in the country actually applauds it, or is in denial....

Don't they all?

The Trump Family Crime Syndicate is already reaping the financial rewards.
 
An author who has written a number of books on trump for decades once claimed in one of his books that trump was actually worth about 265 million while trump was claiming to be a billionaire.

Trump sued him...

Trump lost...
 
Exactly in my mind it goes to show that you can't believe what trump says...

Trump is constantly exposed as a pathologically dishonest whore, soley concerned with image and not substance, full of deceit and willing to stoop to schoolyard levels of stupity to try and craft a public persona.

I can see why so many 'conservatives' here identify with him.
 
This is old news, reckon why CNN feels the need to rehash ??
 
iLOL If it's irrelevant, why are you posting about it?
So you don't think pointing out that something is really irrelevant matters?
1. Good to know.
2. Don't point out that something is irrelevant then.
 

The comey memos also show this too. Conservatives don't like them either and are now calling them classified information lolz. :lamo
 
You are changing what is actually being discussed. The Reporters unsupported opinion that it was only 5mil, not the 100mil originally reported.

I never mentioned specific numbers.
