Trump releases personal finances report

Source: The Hill

The Office of Government Ethics on Friday evening released President Donald Trump’s personal financial disclosure report.

"President Trump welcomed the opportunity to voluntarily file his personal financial disclosure form; while this filing is voluntary (as no report was due until May 2018), it has been certified by the Office of Government Ethics pursuant to its normal procedures," according to White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer.

The 98-page report is slightly shorter than the one he filed last year as a presidential candidate. Those financials clocked in at 104 pages.

In that filing, Trump claimed his net worth was more than $10 billion.

at least, and that's not counting the cats.

Is this an officially validated report? Can it be independently checked? Or do we have to just take Trump's word for it?

His Orangeness / King Tiny Hands could swear on a stack of bibles to the sky and I would not believe one uttered syllable. He has no acquaintance with truth whatsoever.

and he said his worth goes according to his feelings, it varies from day to day, depending on mood.
A sworn legally binding deposition.

The man is in debt, so is Kushner. They live off begging, among the rich that is known as foundations and charities.

*the writer is Tim O'Brien, his book is called Trump Nation, i am reading it now. Very good.

Although I understand the plot is weak and the character development non-existant

He's worth more than $10 billion dollars, Zimbabwe dollars. That's about 8 cents American.
