2. I have been wondering what the value of his "assets" would be

when he has to dump them at a fire sale?

Plus we know that he has grossly over valued his assets when securing debt or trying to pump his image.

We also know that much of his 'value' is based on his claim on the market value of his name.

Ergo, my guess is that if he had to liquidate the cash he could raise would be far less than what he owes. I certainly hope I live to see that.

David Cay Johnston is probably the only one who has put together a realistic estimate of the Trump fortune. I can't remember what Johnston's estimate was, but had a few less zeroes than Trump claimed
