​If Trump let the American people see all his tax information ​since 1977
as
Hillary Clinton
​ has it wouldn't be debatable, we'd know exactly how successful ​a
business man he is; but Trump won't let us see it. Why do you suppose that
is?

Bill Gates
​
has never gone bankrupt and in 1975 when he started
​making money ​
a PC was about as speculative as you can get; he didn't get all his money
from his daddy either.
​ ​
Warren Buffett
​
never went bankrupt either, or Sergey Brin
​
or Larry
​
Page
​
or
​
Mark Zuckerberg
​. And the poorest of one these people is between 4 and 40 times as rich as
Donald Trump, depending on just how inflated Trump's claim of great wealth
really is. ​
