Trump Falls Off List of Wealthiest Americans

[kpete]

Donald Trump is no longer on the annual list of America’s 400 wealthiest people — mainly due to the languishing commercial real estate industry, Forbes reports.

“If Trump is looking for someone to blame, he can start with himself. Five years ago, he had a golden opportunity to diversify his fortune. Fresh off the 2016 election, federal ethics officials were pushing Trump to divest his real estate assets. That would have allowed him to reinvest the proceeds into broad-based index funds and assume office free of conflicts of interest.”

1. LOSER!!! Now he'll grift even more.

He may want the presidency back to make more $$$, or maybe he'll just keep grifting until the last minute.

5. I don't believe it for a second

There is no chance that Trump didn't use his presidency to enrich himself personally. All of the crappy deals he made for the country certainly came at a price of helping his own personal business interests. He certainly is hiding money overseas.
