Voters Can Use Head to Examine Trump Financial Disclosure


Red Team Presidential nominee former President Donald Trump has business operations throughout the globe.  Some are under his name while others are under DTTM Operations LLC or another Trump corporate entity.  

Consider this when he proposes throwing 20% tariffs on everything.

Trumps filings are not searchable but a review showed his monthly pension of nearly $6,500 from the Screen Actors Guild.  

Flashback to early 2021:

Donald Trump has resigned from the Screen Actors Guild after the union threatened to expel him for his role in the Capitol riot in January.

“I no longer wish to be associated with your union,” wrote Trump in a letter shared by the actors guild. “As such, this letter is to inform you of my immediate resignation from SAG-AFTRA. You have done nothing for me.”
I wouldn't call a pension "nothing."  In 2022 Trump valued the pension benefit "as much as $1 million."  Two months ago he declared the value "not readily ascertainable."  

Trump declared a $300,000 royalty related to the Greenwood Bible.  That's a handsome sum.  And yes, the "God Bless the USA Bible" is manufactured in China.  

I suggest voters use their head to examine Trump's six part financial disclosure filing.  It may strike some as odd that a financial genius is not able to determine the value of so many of his holdings.

Is that the new way to toss aside conflict of interest concerns, pretend there is no real value?
