Donald Trump “demanded” an apology from Forbes magazine after it dropped him from its list of the 400 wealthiest people in the US for the second time in three years.

“I hereby demand a full apology from the failing Forbes magazine,” the former president wrote on Wednesday on Truth Social, the reportedly struggling social media platform he set up after being expelled from mainstream platforms over the January 6 attack on the Capitol.

Forbes released its Trump-free list last week, saying the his net worth was down $600m from a year before. Trump has been on the list since the 1990s, other than in 2021.

In response, Trump complained about “really dumb writers assigned to hit me hard” and bragged about huge leads in Republican presidential polling he holds despite facing 91 criminal charges and assorted civil threats.

Remember, I am not legally responsible if you puked up your breakfast while reading that. . .

[EYESORE 9001]

1. Perhaps you're not *legally* responsible

But I *do* demand an apology

[SouthernDem4ever]

2. Too bad Forbes doesn't have "The biggest Asshole" list

Drump would be in the top 5. I am disappointed that the Guardian felt this was newsworthy.

[ECL213]

21. I demand you apologize for not making him a resounding #1!

[SouthernDem4ever]

54. I apologize.

[SergeStorms]

48. The Trump family...

would occupy the top 5 spots in perpetuity.

We all know who number one would be. The other four spots would be a revolving clusterfuck of incompetence and dumbfuckery.

Donald's ego is so outrageous he'd actually be proud to be numero uno.

[no_hypocrisy]

3. I'm certain TFG wanted to sue Forbes, but was talked out of it.

"Demanding an apology" was the only response he could muster.

[Attilatheblond]

42. Somebody probably pointed out his checkbook is about at zero

Already can't afford the lawyers he has and is in need of more just for the criminal cases against him. And nobody is taking his I'll sue you threats seriously anymore. He has used empty bully threats one time too many. Everybody knows, even if he manages getting a lawyer to file suit, he will drop it before required to provide discovery.

And Michael Cohen just laughs and laughs and...

[Aviation Pro]

4. How's it feel to demand, Motherfucker?

Make you feel better, you twisted, sick fuck?

[truthisfreedom]

5. It's just what Michael Cohen said about t****

If you want to drive him nuts, hit him in the ( imaginary) pocketbook. He’s all fluff, from his hair down, and with the slightest breeze he rolls away. His fake fortune will be completely exposed when he finally has to write a check for a major fine.

[TNNurse]

6. I think he should hold his breath (literally) until they apologize.

[ouija]

7. Tops the Worst American Ever list if that helps his fragility

[Sancho]

8. "Cancel my subscription!!"

[Rhiannon12866]

9. I thought this must be The Onion

[Alexander Of Assyria]

15. It is...top story...Gaza humanitarian crisis, thousands dead.....or trump whining..tough choice...

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

10. Need a tissue Donny?

It's attached to your foot.

[claudette]

11. LOL

[onetexan]

12. 'I hereby demand' 😂

Says the emperor w no clothes

[TurboDem]

13. I'm demanding an apology from them too.

I have 4 jars of change in my home office and Forbes has not sent one representative to my house to count it!

I could have been a contender!

[samnsara]

14. i doubt Fotbes subscribes to his rag tag 'truth' social...

[turbinetree]

16. I demand that you be thrown in jail and throw away the fucking key and be sent to Florence Colorado

super max...fucking traitor telling a Australian businessman about our submarines and showing him the documents and your worried about being on some scam list of the richest bilking the poorest......FUCK YOU.......... .

[lastlib]

17. Go change your Depends. donny

Then go fuck ypurself. With a pitchfork. With bent tines. Sideways.

[tanyev]

18. All hell breaking loose in Israel/Palestine and Donny's focused on his Forbes rating.

That's on brand.

[LymphocyteLover]

20. Didn't you hear? Trump is criticizing Israel now.

Link to tweet

?s=46&t=whrrYEY_8TnVsx44H3fY6A

[tanyev]

23. Yeah, because Netanyahu had the nerve to praise the current president who is not Donald J. Trump.

Not only is he a horrible person, he's such a petty, childish and shallow person.

[LymphocyteLover]

33. Also, Putin is now going against Israel. A coincidence, I'm sure

[LymphocyteLover]

19. All I can say is--

[electric_blue68]

45. 😄 I hope you did a kind of "cut & paste" Otherwise that'd taken a while! 😀

[LymphocyteLover]

50. LOL-- yes!

[electric_blue68]

52. 😀 👍

[Wednesdays]

22. "I demand an apology

for not including me on the list in your lousy, failing magazine!"

[orangecrush]

24. In light of the recent news

I needed a laugh.

Thanks, orange dumbfuck.

[trusty elf]

25. He is such an odious putrid gasbag.

fun fact: "truth social" is an anagram for "lost haircut"

[SergeStorms]

49. I love the 'Bonespur' award.....

I don't think I've seen it since the pre-2016 election debacle.

It was funny as hell then, and it's still funny to this day.

[SWBTATTReg]

26. Forbes should do an expose on all of tRUMP's personal wealth lies, and explain the results of

his repeated lies.

[Ocelot II]

27. Forbes is failing but he's all mad because he didn't make their list?

"I demand an apology because you didn't admit me into your failing, shitty club!" Uhh... whut?

[Wonder Why]

28. Bad news. Someone won Powerball, Donnie. You're out of the top 401!

[twodogsbarking]

29. So prove them wrong.

[Ocelot II]

30. He can solve the problem easily, as he often does: Form his own list

and make up numbers that put him at the top. He don't need no stinkin' Forbes.

[PortTack]

32. Sue them!! Defamation of character. Loss of standing with his mob friends..go for it!!

[NoMoreRepugs]

34. I'm sorry you are such a LOOOOOSER Slobby.

[republianmushroom]

35. They are catching up to you , donald.

[SKKY]

36. And I demand an apology for having to look at your neck every time you're on TV...

...for fucks sake man! It looks like the shaved vagina of an old cow. You're rich! Get a procedure. Jesus.

[keithbvadu2]

37. Donald, show your financial statements and taxes. Prove Forbes wrong.

Donald, show your financial statements and taxes.

Prove Forbes wrong.

of course!

[tonekat]

38. Shove his Depends in his mouth!

Everything this failed idiot says is a BS phony grievance!

[sakabatou]

39. What a whiny POS

[LudwigPastorius]

40. That shithead is not in a position to demand anything.

Forbes should tell Trump to disappear up his own asshole.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

41. I can write their "apology" now

"We're sorry you're too broke to qualify as a real billionaire."

[twodogsbarking]

43. I wanna be a billionaire so fucking bad Buy all of the things I never had Uh, I wanna be on

the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen

[electric_blue68]

44. WAAAAAAAAH!!!!! Pffftttt....

😄😄😄😄😄 👍

[4lbs]

46. Oh no. It will make it harder for him to lie about his net worth and property values now.

[soldierant]

47. "Forbes is very sorry that you are an idiot, a jerk, and a crook."

I think that might even be true.

[Hekate]

51. Poor baby just can't catch a break. So unfair! Badly failing!

[FakeNoose]

53. Chump never belonged on Forbes' list in the first place

When is Chump going to apologize to Forbes for LYING and BULLSHITTING his way onto the list back in the 1990's?

[Owl]
