MSNBC: Forbes Reports Wilbur Ross Left $2 Billion Off Financial Disclosures After 2016 Election

‘The question is when did he actually get rid of the assets before or after he was in the administration’

EXCERPT:

BRZEZINSKI: "A new report this morning is raising an entirely different set of ethical and possibly legal questions for the Trump administration. New reporting just out from 'Forbes', looks into Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross quiet transfer of assets after last year's election. Ross left more than $2 billion off his financial disclosure report." [crosstalk]  
SCARBOROUGH: "Wait, I’m sorry, Mika, did you -- Mika wait --"
BRZEZINSKI: "I'm just --"
SCARBOROUGH: "-- did you say $200,000 of his --"
BRZEZINSKI: "No, no, no. I'm --" 
SCARBOROUGH: "-- that’s a lot of money." 
BRZEZINSKI: "Actually, $2 billion. 
SCARBOROUGH: "Two million dollars with an M?"
BRZEZINSKI: "No, that would be billion with a B, off his financial disclosure --" 
SCARBOROUGH: "Billion?" 
BRZEZINSKI: "Two billion. While Ross --"
SCARBOROUGH: "Two, two, wait, wait, wait, wait. Are you saying he left $2 billion off of his financial disclosure form? My God!" 
BRZEZINSKI: "Look, the president’s son doesn’t put his gender on document. So why are we surprised." [crosstalk] 
SCARBOROUGH: "That would be -- that would be like meeting with a bunch of Russians --"
BRZEZINSKI: "Yeah, would be."
SCARBOROUGH: "-- and not putting that on your disclosure form. Nobody would do that."
