I get that people like Trump and the bombastic personality, but I swear I do not understand why people think he is so successful. Yet another article on his failed public company where he paid himself millions while leaving the shareholders holding the bag. No, this is not how business is done in the real world.
While I am a Bernie fan, I will gladly vote for Hillary. She's a little boring, but crooked? I don't think so. Ruining companies, she did not. He's running on his ability to run a company well, but there has been no evidence of that. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/as-its-stock-collapsed-trumps-firm-gave-him-huge-bonuses-and-paid-for-his-jet/2016/06/12/58458918-2766-11e6-b989-4e5479715b54_story.html?hpid=hp_rhp-more-top-stories_no-name%3Ahomepage%2Fstory |

Trump learned his business strategy from the movie The Producers, where the idea was to raise lots of money to produce a show that was sure to fail, so the investors could be stiffed and the producers could walk off with the bulk of the money.
Trump owes Mel Brooks a major debt for the idea. |

| He's all bluff. He bluffs his investors, his business partners and his vendors. Then when it all falls apart, he calls his army of bankruptcy lawyers. He is now perpetuating the biggest bluff of all. Except this time there may be no one to clean up the mess. |
