"New" story about his last century's casino failure, great.

1995 to 2005 was barely 1-2 decades ago, not a century ago.

Quote:

For 10 years between 1995 and 2005, Donald Trump ran Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts — and he did it so badly and incompetently that it collapsed into Chapter 11 bankruptcy. His stockholders were almost entirely wiped out, losing a staggering 89% of their money. The company actually lost money every single year. In total it racked up more than $600 million in net losses over that period.

Trump was chairman of the board throughout the entire time, and CEO as well for about half of it.

This is the sort of record usually associated with an Enron or a WorldCom or a Pets.com.

Meanwhile, over the same period, all his competitors were enjoying an enormous boom. Take a look at our chart.

While Trump was running Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts into the ground, the Dow Jones index of gambling stocks — the index that Trump himself cited in public filings as his best benchmark — soared 160%. Investors in Harrah’s saw their stake go up by nearly 150%. MGM MGM, -2.62% quintupled. These people were making out like bandits.

Donald Trump ran the worst performing casino company on the stock market. This isn’t a matter of “opinion.” This isn’t speculation or politics. It’s a matter of plain fact.

However, one person associated with Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts did make money:

Donald J. Trump.

A review of the company’s public filings show that over that period, while his ordinary investors were getting hosed, Trump himself was siphoning millions out of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts through salary, “bonuses” — yes, really — and cozy “service agreements” or side deals with his private corporations.
I don't think "business success" in any way qualifies him to run the country, but it is looking more and more that Trump isn't the success he endlessly brags to be.

This morning on TV Donald Hump said "He employees lots of people in Hawaii at his hotel". Turns out, once again, the hotel isn't owned by him or his company, but they just license the name. The hotel has nothing to do with him.

Robbie 03-08-2016 10:23 AM

Mark you have linked up a story by a biased reporter.

You obviously are low information

ALL the casinos in Atlantic City went down. Not just the one Trump had.

The BIG boys of casinos in the U.S. are MGM and Caesars.

Trump having "Trump Plaza" with 3 mid sized casinos (by todays standards) hardly meant much of anything.

Having said that...Caesars Casino's also filed for Chapter 11 in Atlantic City for the Ballys Casino and Caesars Casino there.

Here is a link to a report from Moodys saying that the remaining Casinos in the town may not last either: More Atlantic City casinos may close, says Moody's - Dec. 1, 2015

There is a huge difference in claiming that somebody is incompetent and an entire industry in a town crashing.

Stop being ignorant and educate yourself.

I live here in Vegas. And even Vegas was hurt badly.
Today...Vegas doesn't even come close to the casinos in Macau China. They are DESTROYING Vegas in terms of revenue.

Atlantic City never had a chance...with the economic collapse AND the surge of Native American Casinos....people in the U.S. no longer are forced to go to Atlantic City or Vegas to gamble. You can literally gamble everywhere in the country now.

Most of the successful casino and resorts are still open in Atlantic City including one Trump casino/hotel the Trump Taj Mahal. So, exactly why did one (Trump Plaza) fold and the other survive?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_..._new_ownership

Quote:

Workers from the Trump Taj Mahal casino marched to Mayor of Atlantic City Don Guardian's office on the morning of November 3, 2014 to ask him to reconsider granting concessions, which the struggling casino says are necessary to keep the casino open. About 1,000 employees signed a petition calling on the mayor and other elected officials "to do everything possible" to keep the casino open. At the time, four of twelve casinos in Atlantic City had closed and Trump Taj Mahal would have been the fifth if it were to close. [8]

On November 14, 2014, Trump Entertainment Resorts announced that the casino would shut down in December if its main union didn't drop its appeal of a court-ordered cost-savings package, which had effectively cancelled the workers' health insurance and pension coverage.[9] However, it was revealed that the closing was to happen because it has not received the state and local tax breaks it sought.[10] The owner of the struggling Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort filed court papers on November 14, 2014 saying it will close in December.

In filing a revised reorganization plan in Delaware bankruptcy court, Trump Entertainment Resorts said its board has approved a shutdown of the casino by December 12, 2014. The Taj was given a small reprieve announcing today a new shutdown date of December 20. On December 18, 2014 two days before The Taj was slated to close, UNITE HERE Local 54 reached a deal with Trump Entertainment Resorts which saved The Taj from closing. Also, billionaire Carl Icahn committed 20 million for The Taj that same day, aiding efforts to help with Trump Entertainment Resorts' fourth bankruptcy.[11]

In February 2016, Carl Icahn bought the Trump Taj Mahal, allowing it to exit from Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The casino will retain the name "Trump Taj Mahal" but Donald Trump will no longer retain his 10% ownership stake, as Trump Entertainment Resorts becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of Icahn Enterprises.[12]
Another Trump business gone bad -- that is why :2 cents:
"concessions"
Screw the city and the casino workers.
Make America Great!

Some more selective reporting by the liberal media. They are true spin doctors. Atlantic City as a whole ate a massive shit sandwich.

That's because Atlantic City is a Piece of Shit. It's hard to get that shitty so close to the water but they managed to do it some how. I thought Atlantic City would be at least 50% as good as Vegas but it's about 5% of what Vegas is. I would NEVER go there again. What a Shit Hole

Liberals can not win most/all of the arguments without spinning/twisting/lying/cherry picking etc. You can not be reasonable and logical person and be a libby at the same time simply because liberal thinking does not align with logic.

not gonna work mark. a few lemmings will be dazzled. but thinkers know better & its revealing itself in the comments.

just demonstrates the desperate level of spinning that the dumb liberals cherry pick a few of donalds losers that happened when an entire sector crashed. cant count on the liberal press, or liberals at GFY, to tell the truth. just focus on tidbits that paint a distorted picture when the bigger picture is filtered out.

foiled again mark. :error

Any time someone links to something that you don't personally agree with, you scream bias, or "liberal media", etc etc.

Here's a little education for you:

Trump Airlines : Gone.
Trump Vodka: Done and done and gone.
Trump Mortgage: Bad idea, and gone
Trump: The Game: Gone
Trump Steaks: (Gross!) Gone.
Trump ICE (bottled water): Gone.
GoTrump.com (Airline): Gone
Trump Magazine : Boring and gone.
The New Jersey Generals (A Trump football team): Losers, and gone.
Trump Entertainment resorts : 4 Bankruptcies 1991, 2004, 2009, and 2014
Trump Tower Tampa : Fall down go boom and GONE
Trump University. Gone.

Sorry you're all butthurt over your boy Donald Trump. I'm sure you will still vote for him no matter what though.

Mark, do you have friends that own and start businesses? I do and myself included we have had some real turds. We have had some great successes as well but if you are in business to open businesses failure is just part of the overall experience.

In fact Forbes will tell you that over 50% will fail within 5 years for a variety of reasons. Trump is a businessman, he owned hundreds, some have to fail. Criticizing him for not having a 100% success rate is foolishness.
