First, Presidential candidates are not required to disclose their tax returns. Many do, others don't (Romney did not in 2012, for example, and Trump has not).

Second, while candidates are required to disclose certain information about their assets, the valuation of those assets is largely determined by the candidate themselves, and no one at the FEC is going over that with a fine-toothed comb. So, in his forms, Trump claims that the net worth of his assets (including "goodwill," or the value of the Trump brand) is $10 billion. But the fact that Trump claimed that does not make that number accurate, and no other independent assessment of his worth has been close to that number.

But sure, keep insulting me. Your Dear Leader would like that.

Do you know how those valuations are done? The large majority of that net worth is the dude estimating how much he thinks he's worth. That's not hard value ($$ in the bank), or even soft value (how much a building is worth, land), that's fantasy value: how much is the trump brand worth? If he sold his name trademark, how much would someone pay for it? Obviously he thinks it'll be quite a lot more than anyone actually would pay.
