Donald Trump Business Bankruptcies: List and Reasons (thoughtco.com)
Used Law to Protect Interests - the fat guy with daddy’s silver spoons
Critics have cited the Trump corporate bankruptcies as examples of his recklessness and inability to manage, but the real estate developer, casino operator, and former reality-television star says his use of federal law to protect his interests illustrates his sharp business acumen.
Trump said in August 2015:
"I have used the laws of this country just like the greatest people that you read about every day in business have used the laws of this country, the chapter laws, to do a great job for my company, my employees, myself and my family.”
Used Little of Own Money
The New York Times , which conducted an analysis of regulatory reviews, court records, and security filings, found otherwise, however. It reported in 2016 that Trump "put up little of his own money, shifted personal debts to the casinos and collected millions of dollars in salary, bonuses, and other payments.
“The burden of his failures,” according to the newspaper, “fell on investors and others who had bet on his business acumen.”
6 Corporate Bankruptcies
Trump has filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy for his companies six times. Three of the casino bankruptcies came during the recession of the early 1990s and the Gulf War, both of which contributed to hard times in Atlantic City, New Jersey’s gambling facilities. He also entered a Manhattan hotel and two casino holding companies into bankruptcy.
Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows companies to restructure or wipe away much of their debt to other companies, creditors, and shareholders while remaining in business but under the supervision of a bankruptcy court. Chapter 11 is often called “reorganization” because it allows the business to emerge from the process more efficient and on good terms with its creditors.
Personal vs. Corporate Bankruptcy
One point of clarification: Trump has never filed personal bankruptcy, only corporate bankruptcy related to some of his business interests. “I have never gone bankrupt,” Trump has said.
Here is a look at the six Trump corporate bankruptcies. The details are a matter of public record and have been widely published by the news media and even discussed by Trump himself.
Yet Trumpy brags about how GREAT of a businessman he is !!!
I’m sure this is something he learned when he was a demoRAT for ALL those years !!!

ROTFMAO. The few that care about Rump are his extremist followers.
He will be indicted, just a matter of timing to do the most damage.
And he will still win. Deal with it, you’re out of touch with the country
ROTFLMAO. The independents disagree with you.
Sure they do lol… look at the polls trump wins big time
General Election: Trump vs. Biden Quinnipiac Biden 49, Trump 45
Biden +4
Sixty-seven percent of independents said they do not want Trump to run again, while just 28% said they do. In 2020, Trump lost independents and lost the election.
Head in the sand, still.

GOP lawmakers view Trump tactics against DeSantis ‘nasty and personal’
by Rachel Schilke, Breaking News Reporter |
March 16, 2023 08:36 AM
Republican lawmakers are recoiling from former President Donald Trump’s repeated attacks against Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), believing it is signaling the beginning of a vicious primary that will weaken the GOP’s top candidates heading into the 2024 election.
Trump is already building an extensive opposition file against the Florida governor, whom he views as his biggest threat, ahead of the general election, focusing his attacks on his previous voting record and policy stances. Now, his team has taken the barrage a step further by filing an ethics complaint against DeSantis, accusing him of running a “shadow presidential campaign” in violation of state election laws.
The lawsuit was filed to Florida Commission on Ethics Chairman Glenton Gilzean Jr. by MAGA Inc., a super PAC aligned with Trump. The PAC argues that DeSantis is meeting with “influential figures” and vetting campaign operatives in early primary states, as well as participating in illegal fundraising. In Florida, officials are barred from running for national office unless they resign from their state positions.
The early onset of mudslinging has GOP lawmakers worried about what a battle with Trump could mean for the party’s image and success in 2024, as Republicans hope to appeal to more independent and less far-right voters.
“I winced in 2016, and I’m wincing now,” Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) told the Hill when asked about Trump’s tactics. “That’s just because that’s not my style. I don’t think you’ll ever take the New York style out of Donald Trump. It’s too much to ask. He’s a fully baked cake."
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), one of seven Republicans who voted to impeach Trump in February 2021, said she is not pleased about the manner in which the former president is going after fellow Republicans this early in the primary.
“Why anyone feels it’s necessary as part of a campaign to be nasty and personal is beyond me,” she said. “It doesn’t have to be. Talk about the issues.”
Trump began flinging insults and dropping not-so-subtle digs against DeSantis since he entered the presidential race in November 2022, shortly after Republicans experienced a less-than-expected performance in the midterm elections — something for which a handful of GOP lawmakers are still blaming Trump and the extreme candidates he endorsed.
DeSantis has yet to announce his candidacy for president, but that is not stopping Trump’s team and his allied PAC from conducting extensive research into DeSantis’s record to build a strong opposition case in the event that the two go head-to-head.
Trump has also resorted to nicknames and comparisons to other Republicans, such as former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL) and former House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI), whom the former president refers to as “RINO,” short for “Republican in name only.”
Trump is ramping up his attempts to link DeSantis to centrist GOP members and called him “Ryan DeSantis” while visiting Iowa. His other favorites include Ron “DeSanctimonious” and “Meatball Ron.”
Senate Minority Whip John Thune (R-SD) told the Hill that he would prefer if Trump focused more on comparing himself to Democrats and less on ripping into fellow Republicans.
However, Trump’s methods are not a total surprise and should not be to DeSantis, Thune added.
"That’s his style. If you’re going to be in the arena, you should expect that,” he said regarding Trump’s personal attacks on DeSantis.
“Yes, I would like to keep it focused on the issues," Thune continued. “I think there’s plenty to talk about, lots of contrasts you can draw with Democrats. I’d rather [they] keep their fire focused on them instead of each other.”
If the Florida governor decides to run in 2024, it is likely he will not make a presidential announcement until the Florida legislative session ends in May. He is expected to come out of the session with a handful of key legislative wins that could provide him with a major boost in the primaries.
Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, right, testifying before the House Oversight Committee hearing on family separation and detention centers, Friday, July 12, 2019 on Capitol Hill in Washington. Also on the panel is Rep. Debbie Lesko, R-Ariz., left.
He already has an endorsement on his side from Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), the policy chairman for the Freedom Caucus. Roy called DeSantis a “man of conviction.”
“America needs a leader who will truly defend her and empower the people against the destructive force of unrestrained government and corporate excess, profligate spending, and woke cultural indoctrination,” Roy said in his release. “That leader is Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.”
Recent polls have varied over who takes the lead in a Republican primary, with several showing DeSantis and a handful more showing Trump depending on the candidate pool or if they are going head-to-head.
In the recent Quinnipiac University Poll, Trump leads DeSantis 42%-36% in a wide field of candidates and 51% to 40% head-to-head.
Republicans are worried that consistent negativity could sway swing voters to vote Democratic, especially college-educated voters and suburban women. As of now, both Republican candidates are projected to fall to President Joe Biden, with DeSantis losing 46% to 47% and Trump losing 45% to 49%, per the Quinnipiac University Poll.
We can keep going back and forth with links that prove each other right. Or you can have a brain
Earth to moron.
Trump may very well be the GOP candidate however, the rest of the country still hates his big mouth.
