Forbes has released its annual list of the 400 richest Americans, and for the second time in three years, former President Donald Trump did not make the cut.
According to Forbes, the former president’s $2.6 billion net worth is $300 million shy of the cutoff to be included in the Forbes 400 rankings. Trump, considered the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination, lost $600 million in net worth over the past year, thanks in large part to his 90% stake in Truth Social.

Trump’s stake in Truth Social, the social media site he opened to compete with X (formerly Twitter), went from an estimated value of $730 million down to less than $100 million.
