The whole reason Donald Trump rose to fame in the 1980s was that he had money. He has been known for his money for decades, but that money has also been a mysterious source of confusion. During his Comedy Central roast five years ago, the only types of jokes that he said were off-limits were any that insinuated he isnt as rich as he says he is. His net worth is disputed from magazine to magazine. There are rumors that he isnt releasing his tax returns because they would prove he lies about his worth. Some say his campaign is broke. He himself has gone back and forth between insisting he will self-fund his campaign and soliciting donations.
This morning, Kellyanne Conway was named the new campaign manager for Trump and she went on Fox News to explain why:
While talking about her boss a man who has claimed to have unlimited cash with which to fund his campaign Conway said, Well never have the money and well have have the man power that Hillary Clinton has in Brooklyn but we dont need it because quality candidates matter and people want a dynamic, honest messenger in their presidential candidates that they can trust.
Well just leave this right here, then:
Donald J. Trump ✔
@realDonaldTrump
Good news is that my campaign has perhaps more cash than any campaign in the history of politics- b/c I stand 100% behind everything we do.

(30,481 posts)It's a part of being a hated moron. His donor field is shrinking every day. Still, Trump is supposedly rich as hell as are some of the people around him. Time to pony up small minded little white boys.

(17,378 posts)Wasn't his whole brand is that he is so rich that he did not need to raise money?

(18,732 posts)The Trump campaign spent $63 Million in July without buying a single ad and without opening hundreds of offices you would expect. What are they spending their money on?
