(7,432 posts)Trumpy's hotel and golf club businesses are losing money. He may like his brand, but others aren't so hot about it. Jared's about to lose his shirt from his "666" building. Ivanka is impressing NO ONE with her forays into public media attention. Melania's plea for PR donations had to have been taped AFTER she downed a benzo.
Perseus
(4,341 posts)has plummeted by about $600 million, which can only mean that he is $600 million more in debt. Ahhh, and the other day they also wrote about the losses in his Scottish Golf clubs...I have to think that the Scotts are not playing at his courses?

Plus, Tillerson corrected himself through a third party. He didn't call Dotard a Moron, but a Fucking Moron.

(2,574 posts)Debasing and devaluing his brand (a la Naomi Klein) is the most powerful strategy to force him out He can deny, bull shit to himself and the public on national economics and legal investigations, but when it hits his own pocketbook he's going to have an actual reality based reaction.
It's just a matter of how much he looses in personal net wort,( which is his Trump brand's worth) before he pleads some obscure illness & toddles away. His base is not going to desert him nor is the Republican Congress nor is his Cabinet of Sleezeballs. Trump is going to
desert them all when the Presidency costs him too much money.

(14,627 posts)The magazine attributed his decline in wealth to "a tough New York real estate market, particularly for retail locations; a costly lawsuit and an expensive presidential campaign." Trump reached a $25 million settlement in a suit that claims that his Trump University real estate seminars defrauded students.

syringis
(5,101 posts)By the way, I wonder, is he really rich?
The more it goes, the more my doubts are growing up.
I've been more than skeptical about his wealth claims for years...
smirkymonkey
(63,221 posts)out with their lists of the world's richest individuals and he has dropped down since last year and doesn't even make it in the top 500.
I think he might even have less money than they are reporting because of the massive amount of debt he is in (probably not all of which is on the up-and-up). This is why he is so unwilling to release his tax returns.
I hope he and his family are completely broke by the time this whole thing is all over!
Duppers
(28,125 posts)That one backfired on him.
He forgot what the owners realize and that is that most of the good players are black.

And that is my forgiving dream of him!
