What ever it is, Trump will need the help of the GOP should he become the nominee.
Hillary Clinton and the Super PACs supporting her will probably spend north of 2.5 billion dollars against Donald Trump.
Trump says he has no Super Pacs and has made not taking money from big donors a centerpiece of his campaign.
If you take away the value of his name, Trump would probably have to liquidate a significant amount of his fortune (which is mostly held in real estate assets) to compete financially with Hillary.
How could he leverage the value of his name for costs in the election?

Yeah, like when it snows in Hell.
And after all, when the properties are sold and his name is taken off of them, what prices will they command? Maybe 50 to 70% of Mr. Trump’s self-declared valuations?
It's been reported that it'll take around a billion dollars to compete. Wonder if he expects the GOP to fund him after all the bad mouthing of them he's done.
My guess is that they'll just write off the presidency this round and put the money toward trying to save the Senate. Will be interesting to see what happens.
