Art of the Deal.

This isn’t new news.... he lost billions in highly volatile business ventures and ultimately earned it all back.

Trump has also paid more money in taxes across the board than everyone on this website combined.

The news media is literally feral and horny in anticipation of any Trump info they can get their hands on. It’s not normal and it’s disturbing.

Remember when we all thought the "two scoops" story was a new low for the national media?


Turns out it was the new normal

The media proclaiming Michael CPL Avennatti as their savior and Presidential hopeful was pretty f’ing low.

They have zero ideas and know their high tax strategy will kill the economy. All they have is “destroy Trump “ or “ Impeach Trump”....

Did he pay back his losses? What does that mean? Do you mean pay off debts? That’s unrelated.

He carried his losses forward like any other business does.

His book was published in 1987 and I'm sure Tony Schwartz wrote it before that.

These records start from 1985.

This is according to CNN
quote:

Trump reported $288 million in income in the past year (2016-17).
quote:

Trump's total income from January 2015 through mid-May 2016 was $611 million, not including investment income.

He's worth at least a billion dollars. ...the key words being "at least."

Damn I love when losers try to get all snarky and it blows up in their faces.

That's based on a 2016 disclosure that capped both assets and loans as a group >$50M. He could have 1.6B in assets and 1.8B in loans, and we wouldn't know based off of that.

kickadog -- This is a psycho's name.

Additionally, you are pathetically gullible. Obviously......

Clearly, an hourly worker and never more.

You truly believe that debt is a bad thing for business.

You truly believe that losses mean anything --- other than you had the balls to try and take risks.

You truly believe that turning 1 million into over 4 billion is no accomplishment. If I gave you a loan of $1..... could you turn it in to $4000.....

Businesses lose money. Businesses - go out of business. ALL of the MOST SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE in this planet's history -- have FAILED countless times. Why do you think bankruptcy laws exist??? Answer - to promote innovation. To provide a reprieve for those brave enough to try.

Most people at the bottom always believe those at the top did not earn their way, had some advantage, were just lucky, were privileged, were lazy..stupid... etc.

And of course they do, how else could they look in the mirror, and realize that the shite-stain that is their life --- is all their fault. ONLY THEIR FAULT.

Guess what kickadawg, all of your managers, all of your bosses, they are just a bunch of lazy morons that got lucky.... You really are the spoke that turns the wheel in your company.

I mean, without you.... how would they be able to take a shite in a clean toilet?
