This is very disturbing on two levels. 1 Boldly making a bald face lie about something so threatening and scary when people need the truth to take steps to save lives, and 2, Its just so damn stupid to use a sharpie to change the official weather map to support your previous nutso statement. It's like a third grader obviously changing a grade (with different ink) on the test he brings home. Just stupid.

Third graders are way more clever than that.

But maybe not a first grader like Trump.

"When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I’m basically the same,” the 70-year-old presumptive Republican nominee once told a biographer.

Regardless of Trump's net worth the man is not clever. Despite an expensive education his interminable tweets are illiterate and would reflect poorly on a nine year old. The U.S.A. is a laughing stock. Oh yes and what about his tax return?

Again, Forbes and Bloomberg don't rely on whatever Trump "tell" them. Do you think Forbes publishes its list of wealthiest people in the world simply based on whatever these rich people "tell" them? That is laughable. Forbes looks at information like equity holdings which is public knowledge.

Forbes did publish an article about how Trump cheats on financials. You decided to ignore it.

I am not able - due to time-constraints -to read every article that Forbes publishes. They publish zillions. So, maybe I didn't decide to ignore that article but instead I never even saw it.

mebbe not so simple:

Disseminating "knowingly" false weather reports is against federal law.

"Whoever knowingly issues or publishes any counterfeit weather forecast or warning of weather conditions falsely representing such forecast or warning to have been issued or published by the Weather Bureau, United States Signal Service, or other branch of the Government service, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ninety days, or both," 18 U.S. Code 2074 reads.

Time to reinstate the highly celebrated Mueller investigation.

Greg Craig was found not guilty.

Or we could go with Hillary's emails.

That's it. But what about those emails?

Well, about an hour ago you posted a comment about that link claiming it said Trump was worth $3.1 billion. You were called out for that article claiming no such thing. That article is about how Trump fakes his financial statements. So, you claimed read it, and now you claim you didn't, and because it is not the narrative you want to hear about you ignore it completely.

Here is the article that estimates Trump's net worth at $3.1 billion:

Other Person: (Look of WTF.)

Trump: (Points somewhere away from the table.) Look out! Someone is trying to steal your cookie.

Other Person: (Looks away. Then back to the table. The last cookie is gone.)

Very nice. Very nice indeed.

With American life’s on the line it’s all about his fragile ego and inability to accept he misspoke.

A pathetic petty p*ssy of a “man”

And here is an article that claims 1/10th of that is reality.

-- A hedge-fund manager noted that “You would see that he doesn’t have the money that he claims to have and he’s not paying much of anything in taxes.”

-- In order to fund his campaign, Trump ended up offloading $7 million in fund assets and $9 million in individual securities. If he were a legitimate billionaire, that kind of shuffling would not be necessary.

-- He files for a tax credit for couples making no more than $500,000 annually.

-- According to the individuals in Trump’s inner circle ... [he] only had a net worth of “$150 to $250 million.”

-- Trump lied about his wealth to get on the Forbes 400 list.

This is priceless from that article ...

Big-time billionaire and former mayor of New York City simply does not buy what Trump is selling. No, not real estate. Michael Bloomberg believes Trump is bluffing about his billionaire status.

After being questioned on the difference between his and Trump’s wealth in an interview with German publication Spiegel, Bloomberg alluded to the idea that the president is unlikely to be in the billionaire range. When the reporter pried for more details by asking, “You mean that Trump may not be a billionaire?” Bloomberg’s rebuttal was “I didn’t say that; you said that.”

Bloomberg offers NO evidence that Trump is not a billionaire. None whatsoever. His 2 main reasons that he believes Trump is not a billionaire are 1) He "believes" Trump is bluffing and 2) Bloomberg "alludes" to the idea that the president is unlikely to be in the billionaire range. After reading No. 1 I quit reading that garbage.

Trump has offered NO evidence that he is a billionaire.

Bloomberg spoke of Trump's true net worth. The person he was speaking with realized that Trump could not possibly be a billionaire. Bloomberg did not need to confirm nor deny what was so obvious.

Here is one estimate looking at real estate holdings and other assets (not Trump telling them) from USA Today estimating Trump to be worth billions...

Investopedia estimating his wealth at $3.5 billion.

Every estimate I have seen (5) puts his net worth around $3 billion or more.

Still trying to make a "estimate" reality. Give it up Sally.

I will say that when Trump became president he claims he sold all his various stock holdings. The Washington Post reported that a disclosure filing revealed his total portfolio had been worth $40 million. I find is very surprising that he had such a relatively small amount in his portfolio.
