Donald Trump sues author for questioning his wealth. Apparently the author of “TrumpNation: The Art of Being the Donald”, Timothy O’Brien had claimed that Trump was exaggerating his wealth that should worth no more than $250 million.
Donald Trump, the real estate tycoon and host of the popular reality show “Apprentice” is sueing the author and publisher $5 billion (yes that is 9 zero behind the 5) for defamatory compensation. According to Forbes Magazine, Donald Trump networth is at least $2.7 billion.
Now now if Trump does win the lawsuit in the end (which I doubt) he will triple his wealth in an instant.. now that’s business.
