I'm getting as many laughs from the RWNJ's on this topic that don't read as the LWNJ's that parrot what they've been told.

I do not regret voting for Biden one bit, especially since it kept Trump out. I'll do it again if given the chance.

Seriously, how dumb do you have to be to bankrupt a casino?
geez..I've had to explain this at least a Hundred times here...and now I have to do it again

When Trump's casino opened there, it was the only one, but when others saw him raking it in, they opened casino's too, and the market became over-saturated.

EVERY state surrounding Atlantic City NJ used to prohibit gambling when Trump's casino opened in NJ. Soon thereafter, EVERY state surrounding NJ changed their laws to allow gambling, so no need to travel to Atlantic City NJ anymore.

A Hurricane struck Atlantic City, and closed everything down for almost 2 years.

Trump is a Billionaire who built upon his Father's gift of Millions. Its not easy to turn Millions into Billions. That is why America has 12,000,000 Millionaires, and just 614 Billionaires. Did you turn Millions into Bilions?

Donald Trump NEVER EVER filed for a personal bankrupcy, but a few of his companies did..."UGE difference.

Quit believing the Liberal news sources you frequent, and research some of these things on your own.

The advent of televised debates with Nixon-Kennedy showed us that.
Fun fact, Roger Ailes came to Nixon's rescue in the '68 election by staging town halls. His media savvy has basically been the guiding force for right wing messaging since.

They'd make the same mistake over and over again. It's not like we didn't all know exactly what we were going to get.

The left doesn't care if the entire country tanks, as long as Trump isn't in office, that's all that counts.

He's also not racist-sexist-homophobic-transphobic-islamaphobic or anything else. At least no more than any other person on the planet...and we ALL have our biases.

I think the problem here is that instead of learning and believing facts a big chunk of society learns and believes whatever the media says. And at this point we don't actually have much actual media, it's all political propaganda, outrage, and entertainment. Nobody can deny it.

Don’t hate the man but hate much of what he has done.

Trump's casinos were opened well after most of the casinos in Atlantic City. Casinos have opened or even bought from Trump and are successful to this day.

Inheriting $400 million and a real estate empire is ridiculously easy to turn into billions. Turns out when you have enough chips to place bets on every roulette slot, you win. Even then, he can't tell you his own net worth.

Quit believing the right wing news sources you frequent, and research some of these things on your own.

January 6th. You can pretend all you want it wasn’t a dog whistle to his followers, but you’re not being honest with yourself or with us.

And apparently Trump supporters have some magical crystal ball that tells them that everything would be oh so much better if Trump was still in office. Sorry if I remain skeptical and yes, if it were Trump v Biden, I would vote for Biden again. Save the left v right crap as well. Newsflash: a lot of independents voted for Biden.
