In both cases, the perception that they have big assets is what allows them to get gigantic loans - even after, in Trump's case, he has had several bankruptcies of his businesses (note not his personal finances) where people who bought into his brand, lost tons of money. That is why several articles hint, or say, that he could not get loans from most reputable banks - thus the rumors of getting funding from the "Russian Mafia".

Clearly, Kushner made a VERY BAD deal and completely over extended his family corporation, that had under his dad, owned tons of NJ apartments. Apparently, the completely overrated Jared Kushner, both became a slum lord by buying properties and tried to be like his father -in -law buying this building.

Consider, that if Trump REALLY had 10 millions net assets, he might have rescued Ivanka's husband and bought him out.
