In an article in the April 1991 issue of Spy magazine John Connolly (amazing Irish writer) detailed these very same issues with trump. 30 years ago he was doing the exact same thing, and has probably done so his entire life, yet only now is anyone trying to do anything about it. None of this has been a secret in any way and nothing was ever done. I am not impressed that now someone is finally calling him out. If he had been dealt with long ago we wouldn't have to put up with his crap now.

The problem is that property valuation is EXTREMELY subjective. Like if you ask one person who WANTED to live somewhere, he might pay $100M, while someone who didn’t want to might only pay $1. So given that as a business you choose the numbers available to you at any given moment which will benefit you the most at that moment…I see this as incredibly unethical but probably not illegal.
