Trump set to announce 2016 plans

The Hill

Donald Trump is poised to announce whether he will actually run for the White House after flirting with a 2016 bid for several months.

The business mogul will deliver a "major announcement" late Tuesday morning at New York City's Trump Tower. A logo reading “Trump: Make America Great Again!” was published on Trump’s Facebook page late Monday.

Trump has signaled he is seriously considering joining the extremely crowded GOP field, which grew to 11 on Monday with the official entrance of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.

Trump set up an exploratory committee, hired staff and has toured early voting states such as Iowa and New Hampshire in recent months. Last month he said he was "very much inclined" to join the GOP field.

Jumping into the 2016 race would require a disclosure of personal finances, which Trump has signaled he will do on Tuesday.

His release will summarize his assets to total about $9 billion, according to The Washington Post and The Associated Press. Trump told Bloomberg for a Tuesday story it was closer to $10 billion.

Trump has bashed many candidates in the Republican field, and the celebrity property developer would likely campaign on a business-centric platform involving issues such as trade and immigration.


While he is not thought to be among the top-tier of Republican hopefuls, Trump has pointed to his personal wealth and business savvy as evidence of successes to help set himself apart.
