Men like Trump never has enough. He brags that he is very rich, that he is worth $10 billion but Forbes Magazine say he is only worth 3.5 to 4 billion. His life goal is to make it to the to top of Forbes list of 400 billionaires. He got into this to rake in a few billion from fossil fuel by getting rid of Obamas economic sanctions on Russia. Sanctions Obama slapped on them for their annexation of Crimea in 2011. The sanctions killed ExxonMobill's $500 million deal with Putin to drill for oil in the Barrents sea. Exxon has 68 % of their assets in Russia but since the sanctions were imposed they have only been able to pull 1.5 % of their production from Russia the rest came from he US. Trump didn't suddenly become civic minded he never does anything unless there is big money in it for himself

I do not necessarily disagree here, Nick.. A successful man is a man who always wants/ needs more and puts his desire to action..

A desire to become President I would think follows that huge narcissistic desire to achieve the greatest position in history.. To go down in History as a world leader vs looking at what money he can get out of?? BO had no problem leaving office 20 million more in his pocket than he came in with, right?? How is that possible on 400k a year??? Wrote a book years ago, yea I get that,but 20 million??Whats up with that???

Have you ever read Trumps financial disclosure of all business he had to give when nominated??
Here's just a little .. All you people screaming about tax records and he has annual portfolios on his businesses yearly, along with having to file his disclosure form ..Sure it's not complete in earned income, liquidity, dividends etc but it too says net accumulated worth of 10 billion.. I have read the 3.5 to 4.5 billion dollar figure as well.. And so the point is what??? Diclosure of held businesses or money he makes?? Just up to the filing of his FDF he had already made 1.5 billion and note the closing paragraph too...

Trump has not been shy about discussing his wealth.

When he filed his first financial disclosure after declaring his candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination, his campaign said that Trump's personal fortune was so "massive" that it couldn't be properly detailed on the FEC forms.

The campaign statement said of the FEC forms:

This report was not designed for a man of Mr. Trump's massive wealth. For instance, they have boxes once a certain number is reached that simply state $50 million or more. Many of these boxes have been checked. As an example, if a building owned by Mr. Trump is worth $1.5 billion, the box checked is "$50,000,000 or more."
Here's the Trump campaign's full statement:
Yesterday, Donald J. Trump filed his Personal Financial Disclosure (PFD) forms with the Federal Election Commission (FEC), his second annual filing since announcing his candidacy for President of the United States in June of last year.
Mr. Trump stated, "I filed my PFD, which I am proud to say is the largest in the history of the FEC. Despite the fact that I am allowed extensions, I have again filed my report, which is 104 pages, on time. Bernie Sanders has requested, on the other hand, an extension for his small report. This is the difference between a businessman and the all talk, no action politicians that have failed the American people for far too long. I have built an incredible company and have accumulated one of the greatest portfolios of real estate assets, many of which are considered to be among the finest and most iconic properties in the world. This is the kind of thinking the country needs."
The newly filed PFD shows a tremendous cash flow, and a revenue increase of approximately $190 million dollars (which does not include dividends, interest, capital gains, rents and royalties). This income was utilized, among other things, for the funding of construction projects at various multi-million dollar developments, reduction of debt and the funding of the campaign.
Mr. Trump's income as reported in the PFD statement is in excess of $557 million (which does not include dividends, interest, capital gains, rents and royalties). Mr. Trump's net worth has increased since the last statement was filed in July of 2015. As of this date, Mr. Trump's net worth is in excess of $10 billion dollars.

Sassi Lass; a superb reference, to be read and remembered if we are to have any hope of resurrecting our Republic and all the greatness it has achieved. It is very late in our hour of need and thankfully, we have an aggressive warrior in our corner. It behooves us all to support this champion against all the misled morons that festoon the opposition in their brainless attempts to restore and sustain the evil that has been our fate for the last few years. Both parties have been involved; both need to be brought to heel at the desire of we the people. It is, in the end, our Republic and if it is to be restored, it is up to us to do it. It may be time to bring the sword to bear against both the liberal's and the RINO's and their desires for unlimited power. The Republic can only prosper when these craven individuals are defeated. Kudos again on an excellent source of information.

Thank you! I am going to write a strong letter to my Representative and Senators. If they are not going to do the will of the people, I am going to make it my mission in life to see they are not re-elected! It is SO time for term limits!

You and your peers are best characterized as "nattering nabobs of negativity". I wish I could remember the source of this quote, but it is tailor made for the current liberal lummoxes and needs to be brought to the attention of the mewling and puking antifas and democrat dissidents in the current political situation.

That would be William Safire, the former Nixon speechwriter turned New York Times op-ed columnist, died September 27, 2009 at age 79. Safire is still remembered some 40 years later for the words that he put into the mouth of disgraced vice president, Spiro Agnew, and for one phrase in particular:

"Nattering nabobs of negativism."

So there you go.

Let's take a look at documents from the Secret Service and Air Force relating to Obama travel expenses. The cost to taxpayers, the known total over the past 8 years is $96,938,882.51. Part of this total, (at taxpayer expense) is a campaign trip for Hillary in July, 2016 to the tune of $360,236.00, figures not yet released include Michelle's campaign trip in Oct. 2016 for Hillary to N Carolina, First Ladies typically fly in a C-32A so the 1,8 hour flight can safely be estimated to have cost the taxpayers $28,522.80

I have never in my life witnessed the kind of brutality, downright lying, and vitriol that is being hurled at this president. It is not only a shame, but it is rather a coordinated attack on the American people! This man was elected by US to do a job, beginning with cleaning up the cesspool that is Washington, D.C. Every time the mainstream media, the Democrats, the Deep State, the RINO Republicans obstruct the President, they are obstructing the will of the People. This is a WAR being waged against us!

You may not like everything President Trump does or says, but one thing I do not doubt, he is a patriot and loves this country. I believe he is just as saddened, just as disgusted, and just as fed up with the communist Democrats and the Progressives as the millions of American people who voted for him. We need real change in this country, and we need to support the man who can lead us in the direction of patriotic change, and frankly, back to sanity. That man is our President, Donald J. Trump. Please read this article by Wayne Allyn Root. He makes a lot of sense...

They had better be very careful what they do because if they do undo the election of millions and millions of voters out here they may not like what they get for their efforts. It could literally rise up and bite them in the ass big time.

That was Nixon's VP Spiro Agnew.

Trump is ripping us off by overcharging for space for the secret service. Charging to hold meetings in his hotels. Still collecting his salary that he was not going to take.

How do you know this stuff? Point me to your (credible) source on this. My interest has been piqued.

Moldyoldy- I started with the huffingtonpost reference and was astounded by the attempts at obfuscation and biased reporting. Oh the horror of his old plane using $10,000 fuel per hour. It didn't address make-up of crew and whether they were Trump paid crew or if they were USAF crew members. In any event, his "old" plane is probably much cheaper than AF One in terms of fuel expenses, crew costs, maintenance costs, etc. I failed to hear any liberal complaints about obama's frequent excursions from DC to Honolulu and the fact that obama spent over $1.3 Billion in vacation expenses during his tenure. Trump's flights to Florida are significantly shorter and much cheaper than that which obama frittered away. I have to place little credence on huffington post editorials in view of the fact they are dedicated to slanted reporting; anything anti trump will fly. Rather like Snopes references. Dedicated to altering the facts.

As for Clio Chang's observations concerning the cost of flying secret service agents. How much would it have cost to arrange their transportation on alternate means? I'm not terribly concerned that the money will ultimately find its way back to the President. The alternative is to travel without secret service protection or else let all their expenses go to some other company, agency or organization that affords such travel expenses. Do you know of any? Had clinton had the opportunity to charge for transportation, how much would she have made? Clear the mud out of the water before you start trying to spear fish in the barrel; all you're doing is stirring up more mud and making a froth. For naught!

CBS's Laura Strickler is another desperate democrat columnist, struggling for some sort of recognition what with her observations singling out the Trump families need for protection. How are the trip expense's made on behalf of Eric Trump different than those made on behalf of michael obama's mama for secret service protection, or for her hotel bills or for the daughter's safari expenses? Something about sauce for the goose and sauce for the gander. Lets get Congress to pass legislation that president's pay for ALL their and their family vacation expenses and ALL their wives and families attendants and servants expenses including hairdressers and secretaries. That might get rid of all the carping about expenses.

I'm not particularly swayed by anything the Brits may have to say on how we fund our first family's. It is no more their business than it is our business how the royal family is funded. Of interest, perhaps, but not much more, thank you very much. In any event, thank you for the references.

Total and complete nonsense. His only crime was beating hillary soundly in the election. And that all boiled down to her beating herself, she is still in a state of shock about losing the election, egotist that she is.
If you have noticed, according to her she had nothing to do with the loss: it was all Trump lies, Abadin's stupidity, Comeys errors in releasing what was pertinent at the time, whatever it took for someone else to get the blame. She never considered her own pathological lying, insatiable greed, stupendous stupidity and arrogance in using her e-mails, her non consideration of classified information procedures, her sale of American uranium. Her self centered conceit never allowed her to see that Trump was outdrawing her pathetic crowds, and that the Benghazi lies never floated, that her arrogant, insulting demeanor toward the military and the Secret Service made her a pariah and that as a potty mouthed gutter snipe, she alienated millions.
But her mentally constipated base has stuck with her through thick and thin and she is still championed by those that cannot think for themselves. They obviously have maintained a sense of servitude to the most evil politician to have ever run for national office in this Republic; Thank God for our deliverance from this Luciferian advocate and all his liberal disciples.

Moldyoldy is an idiot who can't see that Trump doesn't need to line his pockets.

He was already rich before he became president.

But moldyoldy was an idiot long before Trump became president and will remain an idiot long after Trump is gone.
