President Donald Trump on Monday claimed he plans on releasing an "extremely complete" report of his financial record, but he offered no specifics and a murky timeline.
Speaking to reporters as he departed the White House, Trump suggested that the promised release would dispel the notion that his real estate empire is in need of the taxpayer money and business driven there throughout his presidency.
The latest such controversy arose from a POLITICO report that detailed several instances of U.S. Air Force crews staying at Trump's Scotland resort while refueling at a small commercial airport nearby. But Trump argued that it was unfair to suggest he was to blame for a military aircraft refueling in the vicinity of one of his properties.
I own a lot of different places, he told reporters. Soon, you will find that out because I will be, at some point prior to the election, I will be giving out a financial report of me. And it will be extremely complete. I'm going to give out my financial condition.

If he's applying for a loan, he's suddenly making truckloads.
If he's trying to impress the voters... whatever. All I know is that the numbers will be false.

(9,631 posts)Another weirdness: "I will be giving out a financial report of me." Word salad oddball, he is.
Who even talks like this?

(1,696 posts)My suggestion is to listen to what he says, fact check it, then print it. The MSMedia needs to change as tRUMP has changed the rules of the reporting "game". Verify then print, not print then verify and then correct.
Just sayin..
