Quoting Ruben Safir (mrbrklyn-at-panix.com):
> No, that is the Trump who made 4 billion dollars.
Which we know because he adds a few billion dollars to his self-estimated personal worth based on whatever he believes his personal 'brand' to be worth? I'm not making this up. He really did say that during a deposition where he was challenged about his claim to be a billionaire.
When I read the transcript of that deposition, I really would have fallen out of my chair if, as an accounting and finance professional, I hadn't already long ago known that the man is a cheap con artist and huckster. Which really has never been in dispute.
(When I last checked, he asserted that the value of his _name_ was worth about $3B, which is a novel reinterpretation of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.)
He's always been an absolutely abysmal businessman. Thousands of times over. If he hadn't been, he'd have staunched the bleeding long before he lost even a tiny fraction of that $916 million in that one single calendar year, long before he stiffed all those businessmen, long before he washed away vast amounts of loaned money in his four personal bankruptcies at the same time that he was _literally_ gilding his bedrooms and bathrooms. _Literally_. And then claiming charitable tax deductions for things like a god-awful inflated-price painting of his pasty-faced self that was bought by his alleged charity at alleged-charity auction and then illegally redirected to hang on the wall of Champions Bar and Grill at the Trump National Doral golf resort in Florida.
> we should all be so stupid.
I certainly hope you are not _both_ so stupid -- and the man is pretty generally clueless to such a degree that I consider him a walking advertisement for the Dunning-Kruger effect -- and also as big a fraud, not to mention as big a moral degenerate. That would make me sad.
