I'll go with Investopedia






Unless you are not calling golf courses a business? And where are the golf courses in your link?


Your link shows 4 hotels, when he clearly has hotels in "Canada, Turkey, Panama, South Korea, United Arab Emirates, and India, among other locations (that's 6.....not in the United States...that's more than 4) and Trump Tower also includes commercial tenants, including the Industrial & Commercial Bank of China (IDCBY), Gucci (GUC), the Trump Corporation, and numerous other organizations and companies from around the world."


And then we have, just these hotels..."Illinois, Nevada, Florida, New York, and Hawaii. International properties are in Ireland, Panama, and Canada, and under construction in many other regions."


A lot more than 4....do you still think your link is not biased?




Oh, and lookie here: "Indeed, Trump has full or partial ownership of approximately 500 companies in the United States alone."


Everything is located not in your link, but the other link...




https://www.investopedia.com/updates...ump-companies/




So, not only is you link extremely far off....it's basically useless....
Take Canada off the list. He owns nothing, with both Toronto and Vancouver forcing removal of his name from the buildings. His name is worthless in Canada and that's the only thing he was licensing use of on either building.

The one in Vancouver is owned by a Chinese consortium and the Toronto property had too much Russian money in it to be palatable to invesotrs with brains ….. …… and ethics..

https://vancouversun.com/business/lo...etro-vancouver

https://www.thestar.com/news/world/2...ns-anyway.html

Explains a lot about his ill feelings towards Canada, they looked under his rug and found nothing but dirt.

Oh come on.

He's the PG, and he denied the queen her throne. Neither of those is ever going to be forgiven.

Only some very startling event (like unquestionably denuclearizing North Korea or Iran) might do the trick.

^^^^^ And I say the above as someone who isn't a Republican, doesn't like Trump, and would never vote for him.

i'll actually defend trump on this point.



trump's tax returns and school records are private records. there's no evidence that trump has taken any actions to "hide" his records other than simply not releasing them, same as obama's school records ( altho, ironically, trump did claim obama was hiding his school records ).

Will do, now with what you provided, which link is more accurate? Last I checked, even with what you are talking about....5 is still greater than 4.....

I'm thrilled that the left is focusing on this slip up, when he meant to say ports - makes them look petty. I wonder how many airports there are today in the 57 states, as Obama put it?

The lesson? Everyone makes errors when speaking. So what?
