Even in this rant it is the same old theme. It's somebody else's fault. Never the republicans. Could it be that the republican billionaire donors of the past ten years have dumped the chump? That'd be my guess.

The staff did the ultimate projection about "billionaires" and then did a typical "steal" with the assertion that their donations were supposedly "grassroots".

"maybe 14, 15 billion"? Pretty sure he said that once because I remember laughing at the remarks.

funded by the $3 check off on the tax form. I don't know if there is anything that would keep him from doing that -- or keep him from suing to get the money when he's turned down.

BTW, Congress just tapped into that fund in the amount of millions of dollars to cover expenses associated with the Secret Service. I thought it was supposed to help level the playing field for candidates who don't have the means to mount a campaign. Now we see it's just a slush fund to be tapped into when congress doesn't want to make hard decisions about the federal budget.

The Secret Service has a task force around the clock protecting him 24/7 and a special team scouted around at all his speeches.

Every president+family gets Secret Service for the rest of their lives and dt is the most active one in presidential history.

By millions and she still lost. It's not about the money raised.

The person boasting and making unbelievable claims, or the person who believes them without question?

I've seen many claims about Trump's wealth.

Most of it was from vague guesses of real estate values, and ignoring simple considerations like outstanding loans and mortgages.

If I say my house is worth roughly, at a guess, in the current market $4M, are you going to assume I'm rich?
What if I tell you next that I have a $5M mortgage on it?

Will you still think I'm rich?

If you do, I will spin you a tale of my superior fitness, intelligence and education, and write a book or two how to make it big in the real estate business.
Maybe even run for politics.

He can't get at it for a at least six months, but still. It exists. It's there and it's his.
