EXCLUSIVE: Trump lashes out at 'disgrace' Bloomberg for estimating his wealth at JUST $2.9 billion: 'Maybe Michael told them to do it ... he always wanted to do what I'm doing!'
Trump in Daily Mail Online interview blasts Bloomberg for undervaluing his wealth, saying he's worth 'MUCH more than $10 billion' Bloomberg yesterday said he was worth $2.9 billion - a fraction of the amount Trump declared on official forms Said Michael Bloomberg may have personally ordered a hit piece on him because he's jealous 'Bad things will happen for Bloomberg because the quality of their reporting is so bad,' he fumed in latest attack on bias in media Donald Trump is mad as hell at Bloomberg News for a report on Monday that estimated his wealth at a puny $2.9 billion – not the $10 billion he says he's worth.
'I'm worth MUCH more than $10 billion,' a confident Trump told DailyMail.com on Wednesday in his Manhattan office.
'They did it on purpose,' the Republican presidential candidate said. 'I think they're a disgrace. And the next time I see Michael [Bloomberg] I'm not going to be so nice.'

'I'm surprised at Michael,' he said Wednesday. 'I like Michael so much. But Bloomberg has treated me more dishonestly than probably any other outlet.
'If they're as inaccurate with their other financial reporting as they are on my kind of stuff, and the way they cover me politically I wouldn't have one of their little screens. I wouldn't waste my money on it.' 'And I think bad things will happen for Bloomberg because the quality of their reporting is so bad. I say that with Michael being a friend of mine.'
Trump says the former New York City mayor now has a jealous streak.

Lashes out? Nah LoL.
and the way they cover me politically I wouldn’t have one of their little screens. I wouldn’t waste my money on it.
I guess he’s not really really really rich after all if he is worth only $2.9 BILLION /s ROFLMAO at the desperation of the Trump haters.
I’m waiting to hear The Donald say how short Bloomberg is, really short.
LOL for better or worse, that’s The Don’s trademark.
for decades
Donald promises America a new ‘do’ if it makes him president: Trump reveals he will ditch his infamous hair style in the White House - because comb-over takes too much time to maintain
Donald Trump said if elected president he will ditch his current hair style
Trump told a crowd in Iowa that his carefully combed-over hair simply takes too long to do every day
For his new look, Trump says he would just comb his hair back
Could Trump’s skin be any thinner?
Maybe he’s just jealous that Bloomberg has so much more money than he does?
If Trump is only worth $2.9B, why in the world would he over inflate it up to $10B and pay taxes on that, subject to how that is invested of course and I know it is all not liquid.
This attacking everyone for minor things is getting old...
So Bloomberg says his wealth is less...does it matter? wE have his financials, so what.
He keeps trying to convince people of his greatness by complaining each time someone says something wrong. He won’t last long on the debate stage.
Could Trump’s detractors skin be any less thin?
Maybe they’re just jealous that Trump has so much more money than they do.
You're right, it is getting old. And, it is a trait that Trump has shown over the course of his entire business career. It shouldn't surprise anyone.
And yet, the Trump supporters will spin it as “well, he is taking it to the media”.
No, he is whining. He whined about the debate in NH. He has hit Republican opposition because he was offended.
He hit the IA newspaper and Huff Post for the same reason.
It really isn’t funny anymore. He need to be solid on the issues...again, it is ALL about Donald.
He is a LIAR through and through.
Communist/destroyer/AGW Scam promoter.
His picture should be in the dictionary next to the words “media bias”
I like how the micro-minority of Trump Derangement Sufferers are always telling us how “old” things are getting about Trump and predicting his implosion all the bloody time. That’s what really has gotten old!
Wake up, Trump! You now have no more friends.
Trump can wear his REAL hair anyway he chooses.
I guess if you don't have a Dean Martin head of hair you're not eligible to be a top choice.
