Former President Donald Trump’s net worth was inflated by billions of dollars more than what the New York attorney general’s office recently believed to be the case, the AG said in a new court filing Friday.

Citing an analysis by valuation and accounting experts and taking into account other adjustments, the AG alleged that Trump’s net worth in any given year between 2011 and 2021 was overstated by $1.9 billion to $3.6 billion.

He is not going to like this. He cares about what people think he's worth almost as much as he hates how small his hands are.

He's very confident with his hair and skin, though.

He has hair? This whole time, I thought he was wearing a shoddy albino coonskin cap.

I'm sure he paid taxes on that inflated wealth too, right? ;)

In most cases, income is taxed, not wealth; property tax is an exception to this rule.
