He was a failure in business declaring bankruptcy 6 times. He made money by cheating on his taxes and stiffing contractors who did work for him. He used the courts to tie up and block legal comebacks. He got started with a large inheritance from his father who was a slum lord.I wouldn’t discount him. He has a good sense for business decisions.
peace to you

He declared bankruptcy several times. He did not cheat on his taxes.
He used existing law to benefit himself and his companies. That makes him smart.
Like I said, he has good business sense. I wouldn’t dismiss him.

You are right. Taking big risks, sometimes failing. Learning from mistakes. Do it again.All big business has declared bankruptcy at one time or another. Guys like jim take big risks in business. It’s part of it all. It’s not a commentary on his character or business Davy. Only those who either don’t understand big business or have an agenda suggest other wise
You are right. Taking big risks, sometimes failing. Learning from mistakes. Do it again.
Over the years, through success and failure, Trump ended up on top, making billions of dollars.
I would never bet against him.

Trump Fails At Everything. So Why Does He Always End Up On Top? (forbes.com)Whil this post has some facts in it the description is pejorative in nature and thereby misrepresented the facts mentioned.
At least they admit he “always ends up on top”.Trump Fails At Everything. So Why Does He Always End Up On Top? (forbes.com)
The majority of businesspeople go out of their way to create great products, provide amazing service, and treat customers well. They do this based on the idea that each job well done will provide the foundation upon which to build our next win. When we do miss the mark, most of us work to repair the damage, make things right, and learn from the experience so that we can create something more valuable and enduring the next time.
Donald Trump is the exact opposite. He disregards the experience of his customers, partners, and vendors in the face of any data that might be telling him his latest venture is plummeting. However, he is able to operate this way and still come out on top because he’s mastered one key skill that compensates for his many shortcomings.
An Uncommon Skill That More People Should Learn
Donald Trump is one of the world’s foremost practitioners of hype.
Sounds like a master of hype accusing Trump of hyping.He was a failure in business declaring bankruptcy 6 times. He made money by cheating on his taxes and stiffing contractors who did work for him. He used the courts to tie up and block legal comebacks. He got started with a large inheritance from his father who was a slum lord.
But The Times’s investigation, based on a vast trove of confidential tax returns and financial records, reveals that Mr. Trump received the equivalent today of at least $413 million from his father’s real estate empire, starting when he was a toddler and continuing to this day.Sounds like a master of hype accusing Trump of hyping.
Trump Engaged in Suspect Tax Schemes as He Reaped Riches From His Father - The New York Times (nytimes.com)
"For example, Trump was never shown to have cheated on his taxes, but please explain how one can "make money" by cheating on his taxes. Is that an accusation that Trump actually convinced the IRS to "refund" money he never paid in the first place? That sounds more like what politicians do—receive tax money they never paid.
Of course the description is "pejorative in nature." It describes improper things done by a con man.Whil this post has some facts in it the description is pejorative in nature and thereby misrepresented the facts mentioned.
Maybe the title is misleading. The article should be titled "How Trump appears to be a winner by failing at everything he does."At least they admit he “always ends up on top”.
You don’t “always end up on top” if you “fail at everything”. The statement is false on its face.

And yet, all these Trump hating liberal prosecutors can’t seem to find a law that was violated because no charges have been filed.But The Times’s investigation, based on a vast trove of confidential tax returns and financial records, reveals that Mr. Trump received the equivalent today of at least $413 million from his father’s real estate empire, starting when he was a toddler and continuing to this day.
Much of this money came to Mr. Trump because he helped his parents dodge taxes. He and his siblings set up a sham corporation to disguise millions of dollars in gifts from their parents, records and interviews show. Records indicate that Mr. Trump helped his father take improper tax deductions worth millions more. He also helped formulate a strategy to undervalue his parents’ real estate holdings by hundreds of millions of dollars on tax returns, sharply reducing the tax bill when those properties were transferred to him and his siblings."
Or better yet, “How Trump hating liberals refuse to give him credit for his many successes.”Maybe the title is misleading. The article should be titled "How Trump appears to be a winner by failing at everything he does."
