Trump Lambasts ‘Forbes’ Magazine After Being Removed From List Of 400 Wealthiest Americans

Former President Donald Trump is displeased with Forbes after the magazine dropped him from its list of the 400 richest Americans for the second time in three years.

In a Truth Social post on Monday, Trump asserted that the publication “lost most of its relevance long ago.”

“Took me off their Fake Forbes 400 list, just by a ‘whisker,’ even though they know that I should be high up on that now very dated and discredited ‘antique,'” he said. “For years Forbes has attacked me with really dumb writers assigned to hit me hard, and I am now up 60 Points on the Republicans, and beating Crooked Joe by a lot.”

According to the criteria set out by Forbes, Trump’s estimated $2.6 billion fortune came about $300 million short of the threshold for the list.

The news comes amid Trump’s civil fraud trial in New York, where a lawsuit filed by state Attorney General Letitia James (D) alleges that Trump inflated the value of his properties to defraud business partners. Last month, a judge ruled that Trump had committed fraud, and the trial has now moved on to the penalty phase, where James is seeking $250 million in restitution.

On Friday, Trump’s former controller testified that Eric Trump ordered him to inflate the values of properties on the company’s statement of financial condition.
