Trumpy has a LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGG way to go to catch up with Bill G.

..........Microsoft founder Bill Gates leads the list for the fourth year in a row, with a fortune of $86 billion, $11 billion more than last year. Investor Warren Buffett claimed the No. 2 spot, and Amazon chief executive Jeffrey P. Bezos was third (Bezos owns The Washington Post).
