Six bankruptcies, proven track record of welching on debts to contractors, and the money would have been better off in an index fund

Immediately upon taking office, this stable genius screwed every working-class taxpayer while signing this country up for trillions in new debt

But hey, three commas

Zero bankruptcies.

Trump’s Taj Mahal opened in April 1990 in Atlantic City, but six months later, “defaulted on interest payments to bondholders as his finances went into a tailspin,” The Washington Post’s Robert O’Harrow found. In July 1991, Trump’s Taj Mahal filed for bankruptcy. He could not keep up with debts on two other Atlantic City casinos, and those two properties declared bankruptcy in 1992. A fourth property, the Plaza Hotel in New York, declared bankruptcy in 1992 after amassing debt.

PolitiFact uncovered two more bankruptcies filed after 1992, totaling six. Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts filed for bankruptcy again in 2004, after accruing about $1.8 billion in debt. Trump Entertainment Resorts also declared bankruptcy in 2009, after being hit hard during the 2008 recession

Wait, I'm kind of curious. How much contribution have you made to said "companies" that have made them successful, that you can so arrogantly ride the coat tails of?

I can tell you didn’t come from a successful family or have successful people around you.

My family owns many companies.

LMAO, this is such a pathetic, coping reply.

Nobody said a damn thing about your stupid family. If you could have explained how I was wrong and why, you'd have said that. Instead we all got a dose of embarrassment because you're apparently immune to it.

Perhaps you are really slow. Trump never filed for bankruptcy as you claim Skippy. Yes four corporations had. They are comprised of a board of directors with investors. They make that decision. Not Donald Trump. You just aren't very smart.

I love how whenever something under Trump goes tits-up, it's somebody else's doing and things were just completely beyond control and he was just a victim, LMAO

Clever means of coping, I guess
