      If Trump is an indicator of anything is that having no shame whatsoever is a major plus to succeed. When Trump talks about winning and success absolutely no mention of how horrifically he failed all his businesses except for the stuff his dad made sure he would not fuck with (because if he loses those then he will truely be destitute) will ever change his perspective.

        I mean, Trump filed for bankruptcy 6 times JUST on his casinos. CASINOS. A literal license to take people’s money and he couldn’t figure it out.

          The failure of his Atlantic City casinos is legendary. People at the time were even commenting on the news on how stupid Trump’s management and planning style was. Basically making his own casinos compete and cannibalize one another instead of working against the competition.

          Also Trump is all gaudy trash and looks over functionality. If Trump was born a generation prior he would have been so thoroughly ostracized by wealthier New Yorkers that he would never have had any business connections to work with. He was extremely lucky he ‘came of age’ in the 80s when showy displays of wealth started becoming more in vogue.
