I kind of love that graph, it's such nonsense. None of the numbers are accurate and
even if the numbers were accurate they still wouldn't actually support the claim that's made about the Clintons and the Obama's, and
even if they did support that claim, it still wouldn't make sense to throw Trumps numbers in there, because there's no logic that says a crook can't lose money.
It also manages to be quite sexist definitely without realizing it. Because sure, Barack Obama is worth about 40M, but Michelle is actually the big earner of the family, with over 100M. (They also entered the White House with an estimated 1.3M, not 3M.) (Michelle's memoir "Becoming" is I think the biggest seller out of all of their books, it's really a massive success, among the bestselling memoirs of all times). S
Same with the Clintons, Hillary is the richer one with over 120M just on her own. Who ever put that graph together clearly didn't consider the possibility that the wives are something more than extensions of their husbands, they couldn't possibly have a personal net worth that's significant. Oops.
Trumps numbers obviously are a complete asspull.
