He was in charge of two entities that declared bankruptcy, I think I got it right.

Never said I was more successful, never had to file Chapter 11 either, it is what it is.

Twice.
Being president of a corporation that files bankruptcy is not YOU filing bankruptcy..

In addition, he filed bankruptcy because he wanted to BUY the casinos, and the investors wouldnt sell..

Before every election cycle, Trump threatens to run for president. He's just promoting his businesses...using the media for free (and extremely valuable) advertising for Trump Enterprises.

I guess a all a person needs to run for president is a boatload of money, a reality TV show, and a few youtube soundbites

God bless America...we need it!

Absolutely, do you know what happens when a Monetary hegemon goes bankrupt? (Hint it only happened once before in 1931) It is best to avoid entirely and if not put it off as long as possible as to let folks prepare.
