"17 businesses failed"? Oh, ok, so name me a billionaire real estate mogul who hasn't had flops—especially in casinos during Atlantic City's collapse. Trump restructured debt like every major developer does, hint: (Chapter 11 is a tool, not failure). Six corporate bankruptcies? All casinos, tiny slice of his empire, and he walked away richer while banks took haircuts. Meanwhile, he built a brand worth billions, reality TV empire, and turned a $1B inheritance into... well, whatever Forbes says this week, $8-10B. But sure, focus on Trump Vodka and ignore the hotels, golf courses, and licensing deals that printed money.The lawsuits? Big real estate = big legal fights. Contractors get stiffed sometimes—happens to everyone from developers to Hollywood studios. "Crushed"? Dramatic much? Most settled; it's business, not personal vendetta. This rant is peak expat-forum cope: dredging up 30-year-old casino drama while ignoring pre-COVID boom (record lows for unemployment across races, energy independence, Abraham Accords), the 2024 landslide, and the fact that voters said "promises kept" louder than your list of broken ones. Xylophone, if this is your mic-drop, the mic just rolled under the table. Trump's not perfect—nobody is—but he's the guy who keeps winning while you're still typing therapy essays in Thailand. Touch grass, or better yet, touch some winning stocks from that "failed businessman." Cope harder, maestro—your tune's been on repeat since 2015. 😏
