somebody should tweet this to Christie
Yeah, I pretty much figured this is who he was.
The pro amnesty crowd operates like this. Once you know they’re pro amnesty, the rest (like this) is also known.
Thanks for the link.
I feel sorry for the ICE official, and it’s unforgivable to allow La Raza to treat him that way.
I would not have agreed to a meeting with nobody but myself allowed in. And If I showed up there with someone else, and we were outnumbered by four to one, I would have given him two options.
This room empties out now
I leave now.
Which is it?
“That one million was a loan from his father, which probably was an interest paying loan to teach him about business. What Rubio and Cruz were talking about was the $200Million dollar empire his father left him. — Donald Trump did not turn $1M into tens of billons of dollars as many of his follows seem to believe. He had a much bigger head start.”
The New York Times story is a lie. The various sources claiming to know how much Donald C. Trump inherited give numbers ranging from a low of $40 million to $200 million. The actual amount is not known except to Donald C. Trump and his sister, the judge. Here is what Donald C. Trump has to say about how much he inherited:
Trump on inheritance: I got very, very little

Donald Trump wants to ‘correct the record’ about inheriting $200 million from his father, speaking after his endorsement by Chris Christie.

It should also be noted that it is quite common for young rich inheritors to squander the family fortune due to profligate lifestyles and an inability to profitably handle the financial investments. This was also true of Donald C. Trump when the late Eighties financial crash triggered imminent and massive loan defaults due to being overleveraged. With a lot of help ad some difficult bargaining with the banks, he managed to reverse a $5 billion dollar loss, re-capitalize by going public with some of his business, and recovered to build the net worth to the current ~$10 billion net worth. Whether or not that qualifies or disqualifies Trump as a successful businessman is then in the eyes and judgment of the beholder. But the theme that he did not have to exercise great skill in reaching his current financial position is an obvious canard.
WOW...somebody needs to send this info to Trump/the Trump team, ASAP !
HOLY JUMPING CATS....I wonder how much my old co-op apartment, in Gramercy park, is going for now.
His father's estate was valued at $250 Million, which was divided amongst his wife and his surviving children. Trump did NOT inherit $200 MILLION !
Please look into this and don't believe everything you see on line, nor what that moron Rubio claims.
You couldn't be less informed and more WRONG, if you tried.
Was that just one Corinthian or 2 Corinthians?
Fascinating post...a must-read!!

Put your address into the search engine on Zillow, and it will give you the current estimate based upon the neighbors.
Based on reading Trump's books, and seeing documentaries and interviews, Fred Trump, Donald Trump's father died June 25, 1999.
Trump Tower in NY City opened on November 30, 1983 with a value of $318 million. This is 16 years before Fred Trump died.
As an aside, Donald Trump testified before Congress in 1991 asking for his advice on an economic recovery of the recession America was in at the time. Here is the video:

I suggest people do their homework before making up stories based on hearsay and gossip.

I think you'd agree that it's unfortunate that clueless people throw around numbers based on hearsay. They sound like Bernie Sanders. I have to wonder if they handle their own personal financial affairs in such an irresponsible manner.
He took over his daddy’s company in @ 1974. While I will never begrudge the passing of a family owned business to a son or daughter and making it into an even greater success, it is a bit disingenuous to call Trump a self-made man and put him on the level of Henry Ford. He was given all of the best advantages of schooling, capital, position, and contacts. He heavily leveraged the expansion of his financial empire with a very heavy use of leveraged crony capitalism and back-room Wall street deals.
I believe that putting the future of our nation in this man’s hands will only benefit Trump’s business partners.
