Trump still owes my family a ton of money for helping built the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City. My dad did all the gilding of the finials 100 feet in the air over the boardwalk. My Dad wasn’t the only contractor who was screwed out of tens of thousands of dollars. I only hope it comes full circle for don and his loved ones…. Anyone but 2024!
He’s a good businessman. Everyone should have took the money up front. Bankruptcy laws are still screwing alot of legit businesses. We ain’t seen nothing yet. People invested in the stock market will lose their life savings because of wall street greed. Bank on it.
I remember driving up from Baltimore a few times during law school to gamble at Taj Majal in ‘93-ish. It looked fine and had some bodacious models walking around but it was pretty much empty except for us. I was stunned that he owned a casino, which is basically a license to print money, and he completely blew it. Just a total schmuck.
I mean every single casino in Atlantic City was failing. Your making it sound like it was all Trump when in reality the whole industry in Atlantic City was struggling and unlike the casinos that did survive Trump didn’t have outfits in Vegas and other markets that where doing ok that could subsidize losses
I hate to overestimate Atlantic City's potential but I get this feeling that it could be a substitute area for companies that feeling crowded and priced out of New York City. The area is greatly inexpensive compared to NYC and has an ocean attractiveness that Philadelphia is unable to obtain, but the boardwalk area has to be redesigned as a year-round destination and must consist of eateries and amenities that could fill workers' needs and interests. In addition, many young adults could find escapes with venues like the Borgata and casinos that are currently standing and when summertime rolls around, they have a place to relax and have fun at with boardwalk amenities, amusement parks, and a beach nearby. Atlantic City can revitalize itself if the city stops trying to make it a three-month destination that must withstand the other nine months. Unfortunately, people throughout the country (mainly the East Coast) are blind to the city and thus have lost hope in a place with incredible vibrancy. They and city leaders have to get past that and envision a figurative picture that I have in order to rebuild the city that many once loved.
A good start would be to drive all the low lifes on welfare from AC to Philly and drop them off. Level the ghettos of AC and do something else with the land.
Definitely has potential to be great. Saddled with problems. It’s sad to see all of the cars sold off for pennies by people desperate for one more roll of the dice.
He opened 2 more casinos... He was his own competition... SMH... It was only a let's build it game, He's a developer only... Not thinking of the Future of gaming or employees in Atlantic City...
Badazz, Vegas does have this problem now that only a handful of companies own most of Las Vegas casinos. The best approach is to own 1 or 2 casinos in a market, for each demographic of players. ATC being much smaller meant less wiggle room & trump did the worst thing imaginable he bought his competitors who were catering to the same clientele, which then doubled his debt with no additional players coming in. MGM is feeling similar pain in Vegas now but they’re way more versatile of a company, they’ve got way more lending capabilities & Vegas has way more customers to offset the bad biz decisions.
95 million a year?! What kind of credit do you have to have in order to get a loan that requires you to basically pay a little over a million dollars a day?
Yeah, and all banks and insurance companies, of course, won't check any lies, only democrat judges god knows how many years afterwards. No idiots here)@@cabobs2000
two of those casinos are sold (Taj Mahal is, I think, now Hard Rock) and the Trump Plaza got demolished today, February 17th 2021 after it's been closed in 2014.
Atlantic City's decline is due to: -Smoking ban on 75% of casino floor -Fierce competition from new casinos in surrounding states -Poor service from casino staff
+woodsprout sorry for expressing my opinion. I've gambled in Vegas, Mohegan Sun, Seneca resorts, and Carnival cruises... They all have superior service than any casino in AC, including the Borgata. Furthermore, why would anyone drive to AC when there's better casinos with better services with closer proximity to where people live?
***** Ok, I take back the asshole part. I think it is more accurate to blame the management. People generally like to have a job they enjoy going to, and are willing to work hard if treated reasonably well. Sometimes management makes conditions impossible for them to please the customers.
He opened 2 more casinos... He was his own competition... SMH... It was only a let's build it game, He's a developer only... Not thinking of the Future of gaming or employees in Atlantic City...
That's what closed the doors in the new REVEL casino! No smoking, are you kidding me? You're telling me I can't have a smoke while I'm throwing money around on the dice table. Nope, good luck wit dat. I won't be back. Although, I'd never been in the Revel but that was a huge failure plus the location was awful.
I walked in each casino in Atlantic City one night and slot machines bells were ringing in ALL but Trump's. The players there looked miserable sitting at the machines. Any indication?
He made hundreds of millions since 70s through 2014,I worked there.he just knew when to leave the casinos when 2012 came,I saw one months revenue 38 million,so he didnt lose much.the public def did
When I was a kid I believed the Taj Mahal AC was the real one in India .... I was so disappointed and confused ... I was a stupid kid and there was no internet yet
I've lived in Vegas, the gaming capital of the world, my whole life. I always wondered why Trump didn't come out here (at that time, he's owned a property here since 08), but I remember seeing the Taj Mahal on TV, and I was amazed. Mind you I was a kid though. I thought wow, that place is fancy, it looked like how you envisioned a "Taj Mahal," would look like. However, he dreamt too big and didn't think logically. These guys hit the nail on the head it was too big and too fancy, so it cost too much, so of course debt was high. It was doomed to fail. Donald should have known this, at first people will come and see it, but a casino is a casino at the end of the day. A table game is a table game, a slot is a slot, and once you see it a few times, you don't need to come everyday. All of his projects in AC failed. It reminds me of a guy that got mad at me when I said EOS doesn't have anything 24 HR Fitness doesn't have. They both had bench presses, squats, places to deadlift, dumbbells to curl with. What's the difference?
AC was doing OK up to when the Greedy Pols in the neighboring states esp. PA where Philly was their largest market, decided thy wanted a piece of the pie and Legalized Gambling in their own states. Now 1/2 of the casinos have been shuttered not to mention the Revel which was totally built at the wrong time and was closed within a year of its completion. Most people have to fly to get to LV but AC was withing a few hours driving distance to Millions on the East Coast. But it was the States that saw the Dollar signs and all worked against AC.
Next do a story on how he bought Mar a lago. How he offered them ten cents on the dollar. And when they said no. He bought the property next door, and applied for permits to build some outlandish eyesore until they agreed to his price. I hope the 350,000+ souls lost to covid come back to haunt the Trump family for years.
This reminds me of infamous mobster Bugsey Siegel. He and his mistress bit off more than they could chew. The end result being the mafia punishing Bugsey in their "time honored fashion." All things considered, I'm surprised the same thing... Didn't happen to Donald Trump. Some "businessman." Smh.

I don’t think he cares about the average Americans at all. I never hear him give any detail about what his plans are to help average Americans prosper .. He did more tax breaks to The wealthy elite tho.
A few shortcomings? Good grief, how naive and ill-informed? A lot of average locals, making average earning, lost it all on Trump's junk bonds, not to mention all the small and medium-sized businesses his company bankrupted! 👎
Hey at least he tried... Everyone loves to hate the guy for everything, but in business, you're going to have successes and failures. Not every single venture is going to be successful
No... See that's the thing.... You don't have to deal with it!!!! Clinton was pushed out of office... You can do the same to Trump at any time..... Deal with that!!!!
I was there at the first day of the betting at Taj Mahal. the first 3 hours i bet with play money and won 3 hundred in blackjack. Then the authorities allowed real money. I won $300 in real money at black jack
IN EVERY FAILED BUSINESS OF THIS HERO, THE "ONLY" FOOL NEVER TO LOSE A DIME WAS HIM. EVERYONE ELSE LICKED HIS BOOTS TO COME ABOARD AND THEY LOST EVERYTHING!!!
I used to stay there when he owned it it was amazing. The best casino in Atlantic City at the time and today the building itself is one of the nicest around. The service when Trump opened it was phenomenal I wish he still owned it
Now with 3 casinos opened in the Philly area why go down to Getto Atlantic City ? My neighbor got mugged during day light hours only a block from a casino.Laughed when they opened up the first AC casino back in the 1970's. Said it was going to be the Last Vegas of the East coast.
One of the questions that I have and have not found is other than individuals as was stated in this video who financed these ventures, who were the banks who got burned?. My understanding is that Trump settled this debt on cents on the dollar because he in fact had become too big to fail, and after this episode he had to look overseas to banks like Deutsche Bank and others for his financing.
He also had close contacts at Deutschbank who loaned him a bunch of dough on the DL. Even after he was deemed too risky a couple of insiders still hooked him up. Now he’s reduced to borrowing from Saudi oil czars & they’re not even helping him these days, which is why he’s 24/7/365 grifting his cult members.
I noticed how nobody in this entire “documentary“ never mentioned how an international airport was supposed to be there? This is why he invested, and Democrats fucked him out of it. It seems like you’re insinuating that he’s a bad businessman, and this is completely unjustified. Do your research, and don’t put forth a political agenda.
I HEAR RUMORS WYNN IS GOUNG TO BUILD SOMETHING SPECTACULAR IN THE TRUMP PLAZA SITE AFTER IT GETS IMPLODED!! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME OR ATLANTIC CITY!! ANYTHING THAT GUY BUILDS IS A MONEY MAKER & BEAUTIFUL!!
junk bonds come at a big risk that's why it yields a high note. the little man as the commentator said bought these notes. but, if they weren't greedy looking for the high yield. they could have bought some AA rated bonds for a lot less yield. high risk=high reward or default on the bond.
He’s not a billionaire. Never has been, never will be. He’s a grifter, a con artist & great at marketing. He’s knows how to manipulate corporate media for his own gain.
@@DM-il1hf president Trump sold his casino in New Jersey for over 900 million dollars, sold a yacht for over 300 million ,has 7 skyscrapers in NYC ,golf courses, buildings around the world
The Taj Mahal is now the Hard Rock which they bought at the time for 50 million dollars. This means at that time the hotel was worth about 5% of what it originally cost to make. Also Trump has at least 1 billion dollars in debt and filed for bankruptcy 3 times. He’s worth 2.5 billion I don’t have much money but I can at least say I have never declare bankruptcy and don’t have any debt
So what.. every other person you see voted for Trump... less then two years we vote in new house and senate members that will support Trump. When that happens we will get the wall and the drug dealing , rapist and murdering law braking thugs will be gone. if you think this is hate full just pick up a news paper or turn on the news.... this is the will of the people the Hillary never had a chance even with Obama's help..
Had DEMOCRAT Bill Bradley not stopped sports betting in the early 90's,Trump would still be in the casino business and I would have Bezos like money because Einstein was a mental midget compared to me.
How can you call it a MYTH that Trump inherited his wealth from his father? His father Fred Trump was a major construction mogul in New Jersey. Donald is proud of him, he has talked about him all the time. Look up Donald and Fred trump on RUclips. But as for his three casinos going out of business, as it explained, he raised the funds to buy/build his casinos by selling shares, many of them to local average citizens. He did not put his own money into the casinos, his shareholders did. But Trump did pay a huge amount of the profits they originally made to himself, while refusing to pay the small local contractors who provided most of the furniture etc. He took way too much for himself and the businesses were left under-funded and vulnerable. What about Trump University? Or Trump Airways? Trump Steaks? Trump Vodka? Where are they all now?
I'm from Atlantic City it wasn't 30 years. It was 1987-2005 ish. After that he started selling stocks and phasing himself out. His big casino the taj opened in 1990 and by 2000 he wasn't really around that much.
+Samson Cline Which ones.... that's the point. He doesn't have any. It's not that "things went south". It's that he made promises he couldn't keep. He said he wouldn't finance the place with junk bonds and then he did. Then he declared bankruptcy and left God knows how many local vendors unpaid for services they already rendered. Grow a brain.
"who cares," Well, some care. Betrayed investors or workers for example. Maybe Americans will care who leads their country right now? Will you say "sometimes things go south" when he fucks up this country as well?
Trump still owes my family a ton of money for helping built the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City.

I don’t have much money but I can at least say I have never declare bankruptcy and don’t have any debt
Sturgis touched for the very last time says Hugh hefner Beverly hills hills song
TRUMP 2016 !!!! MORE NOW THEN EVER !!
craig bishop hes the president but i am still here : ) what a waste of time trump voters
So what.. every other person you see voted for Trump... less then two years we vote in new house and senate members that will support Trump. When that happens we will get the wall and the drug dealing , rapist and murdering law braking thugs will be gone. if you think this is hate full just pick up a news paper or turn on the news.... this is the will of the people the Hillary never had a chance even with Obama's help..
Had DEMOCRAT Bill Bradley not stopped sports betting in the early 90's,Trump would still be in the casino business and I would have Bezos like money because Einstein was a mental midget compared to me.
So i he was bankrupt except for the banks then how does the myth he inherited his wealth from father stand up if he lost all the old money?
How can you call it a MYTH that Trump inherited his wealth from his father? His father Fred Trump was a major construction mogul in New Jersey. Donald is proud of him, he has talked about him all the time. Look up Donald and Fred trump on RUclips.
But as for his three casinos going out of business, as it explained, he raised the funds to buy/build his casinos by selling shares, many of them to local average citizens. He did not put his own money into the casinos, his shareholders did. But Trump did pay a huge amount of the profits they originally made to himself, while refusing to pay the small local contractors who provided most of the furniture etc. He took way too much for himself and the businesses were left under-funded and vulnerable.
What about Trump University?
Or Trump Airways?
Trump Steaks?
Trump Vodka?
Where are they all now?
Sounds like sour grapes to me. AC is not doing great lately- Trump is a President- i know 💡💡 !!! Let’s Blame Him!!!
This man is a total con man. And he is stills conning the public.
State run lotteries and interstate lotteries have taken the place of casinos .
Are you crazy?
yeah... no.
my goodness! wtf! lol
Proof that the bonds were held by small people and not banks? None? Okay then
Do you want their names and send? Lol
ill buy it
I don’t consider Trump Taj Mahal a failure. The doors where open for over 25 years.
Cool
A gamble.... welcome to capitalism baby.
I've been here before it's so cool It have bed and theme park
Donald Trump ran three casinos in Atlantic City for over 30 years. Definitely not a failure
I'm from Atlantic City it wasn't 30 years. It was 1987-2005 ish. After that he started selling stocks and phasing himself out. His big casino the taj opened in 1990 and by 2000 he wasn't really around that much.
@@1983jcheat Yes but why do you and others ignore the helicopter crash... that was it, because those were the people behind Trump's casino venture!
UN's
THE, trump Son Mareekh 👽
😂😂😂😂
U mad?😂
HE’S A GENIUS!! THAT’S ALL THERE IS TO IT!! ALL BILLIONAIRES SRE LIKE THIS!! WHAT DO YOU THINK ROCKEFELLER & THE VANDERBILTS WERE??
who cares, sometimes things go south, look at all his amazing successes. they far out weight a few short comings
Ok I'll play your game. Tell me what successes he's had? Name two
So true.
+Samson Cline Name some of Donald's amazing successes please. There are probably more failures than successes.
+Samson Cline Which ones.... that's the point. He doesn't have any.
It's not that "things went south". It's that he made promises he couldn't keep. He said he wouldn't finance the place with junk bonds and then he did. Then he declared bankruptcy and left God knows how many local vendors unpaid for services they already rendered.
Grow a brain.
"who cares,"
Well, some care. Betrayed investors or workers for example.
Maybe Americans will care who leads their country right now? Will you say "sometimes things go south" when he fucks up this country as well?
TRUMP 2024
You build anything in Atlanta, it's warrantee to fail.
The smirks on these guys faces are disgusting. They love the failure.... haters..
The corrupt politicians at that time where to blame as well
The mob
