8. Trump brags that he's worth TEN BILLION DOLLARS

But he's haggling over a mere $2 million when it's his ass on the line? You don't think Trump's been overstating his net worth, do you?

I'll just bet Trump was delighted with the initial $250,000 estimate (more likely a retainer). Once he's signed up with a lawyer, my guess is that Trump expects the lawyer to be at his beck and call anytime, anywhere, for as long as he wants, and there'd better not be a bill.
