From a New York Times story by Jonah E. Bromwich, Ben Protess, and William K. Rashbaum headlined “Trump’s Trial Starts Monday. It Will Spotlight What He’s Really Worth.”:

From his earliest days as a real estate developer to his renegade run for the White House, Donald J. Trump honed a very particular skill: the art of the boast.

“I look better if I’m worth $10 billion than if I’m worth $4 billion,” he once said, disputing his ranking on the Forbes billionaires list.
