He’s a business man who’s been bankrupt 6 times lmaoooo, gullible clowns
The bankruptcy claim comes up a lot. I hate Trump as much as anyone who can form opinions that don't come from a radio talk show, but I'd be willing to he's the bankruptcies were by design. He probably did what the toys r us CEO and 50 cent did, where they funnel money out of a company, and the company goes under.
That being said. He's still a fucking piece of shit who's making the founding fathers roll in their graves
It's the generous interpretation where Trump abused the bankruptcy system for his own benefit, and I definitely agree.
Still wouldn't want a country run that way, the people are the consumers about to be conned or the investors about to be fleeced.
I saw the "and there's no filing for bankruptcy on this one" at the end and all I could think is that even if you thought running a country like a business was a good idea (it's not) why would you pick a businessman who's filed for bankruptcy quite a lot to be the one to do so? I feel like he needs to ask himself that.
