So desperate to keep those returns out of the hands of Congress. It makes me even more curious about what they say.

My hunch is that he’s not worth all that much.

Neal k was funny as he described his chances in court.

And you may be right, that he figures it'll destroy his "image" (Ha!) if people learn he's not worth anywhere as much as he likes to boast about - that's how he's always defined himself. But also, having Mary Trump's book, I know that he comes from a family of tax cheats. Using family documents that Mary Trump obtained from their long-time lawyers, the New York Times published a record long article chronicling his years of financial shenanigans that was published in 2018. Should prove interesting.

but his lawyers are determined to run out the clock until the old bastard dies.

It's just a game to them now.
