How do you know that?

We don’t - that’s the thing.

He’s said he “looks forward” to releasing his financial records. Perhaps he IS worth what he says, is tired of people saying he’s not, and wants to prove it.

Exactly. It's time for him to release what his investigators found in Hawaii, if anything. If he doesn't do it soon, I'm not going to waste any more time on him.

In one interview when asked about the investigators in Hawaii, Trump seemed hesitant and stumbled. Made me think if there are investigators there, they were hired after Trump first stated they were there.

Or maybe he could just have some accounting firm announce that his tax records are in order.

That would be hilarious!

Trump will release more info on OJerko slowly. Just like directing a show. Then look out for the grand ending when he announces he will run.

Totally agree with you. It is all worth watching it from here. If, and that’s a big IF, Donald Trump surfaces as the nominee, you bet I’ll vote for him. Not saying I’ll back him in the primary, but he’s got my vote if he makes it all the way to the general.

Keep pounding away, Donald!

He is raising the green flag for every other candidate to release their long form and then ask MuBarak “Whut up with Dat!?”

Birther issue aside, wouldn’t it be nice if Stephonopolous would have been as tough with Obama as he was with Trump in that interview? There are a host of issues that Georgie could have really gotten in Barry’s face, but didn’t George, was his usual fellating self.

If Trump is going to run for president, he’s going to have to release his tax records anyway, right?

There isn't any requirement to release anything.

Obama proved that.

I love what Trump is doing . . . he must be driving the political advisers to Hussein Obama absolutely nuts.

As I said before, any Republican who decides to run in the 2012 Primary should NOT release anything to the Lame Stream Media. Make them demand (which we know they will) documents and tie ANY AND ALL release of documents to the release of Obama’s alleged LFBC.

Yes. Indeed.

There have been several offers of rewards for Obama to release his bona fides.

Crickets!

Actually Trump’s real net worth is a lot less than the Forbes’ or his own claims are. One author put it in the $150 to $250m range. Deutche Bank in 2005 put it at $788m in 2005.

About $800m of the Trump net worth that Forbes estimated was his branded condo projects, but those projects went up in smoke in the bust and crunch of 2007 and 2008.

Most rich people try to hide their wealth; Trump tries to exaggerate it. The way Trump invents his net worth is hilarious:

From FEC website, someone send to Trump and his suckers that don't know this:

Do I need to disclose my personal financial information to be a candidate for federal office?
Yes. Candidates for federal office must file disclosures of their personal finances. Contact the appropriate office for more information: candidates for the US House of Representatives should contact the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct at (202) 225-7103; candidates for the US Senate should contact the Senate Select Committee on Ethics at (202) 224-2981; candidates for US President and Vice President should contact the FEC’s Office of General Counsel's General Law and Advice Division at (800) 424-9530. (Personal financial disclosure reports filed by Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates (excluding the incumbent) are available from the FEC’s Public Records Office at (800) 424-9530 (press 2).)

Imagine what he was worth under Bush vs. under the economy for Obama.
He had to have taken a huge hit. -$$$$$$$$$$$$

Real Estate hasn’t hit bottom yet, so he’s still losing.

Like him or not, Donald is upping the game. I think he is a marketing genius and if he can bring to light what our coopted media will not, more power to him!!

I'm with you on that. This move is genius.

If he loved this country, then he would be disclosing what information they have found in Hawaii.

What makes you believe Trump can find something that the Democratic governor of Hawaii couldn't find -- and he had a search warrant?
