  • To LSX Post from1/20/11, and anyone else supporting Trump for 2012, do some research before you put your faith into a guy that gets a few seconds on Fox News.

    Living in Southern Jersey all my life and prior to casinos, we have witnessed first hand Trump’s business style and treatment of his fellow human beings. He ripped off the local building contractors that built the Taj Mahal for him in 1991, getting court orders to prevent them from removing product he ended paying cents on the dollar for, putting some long time area businesses, out of business.

    His AC gaming company over the past two decades has repeatedly gone into bankruptcy protection, while he lived high on the hog, while again leaving the outside vendors and contractors settling on cents on the dollar.
    Strike up a conversation with one of the thousands of emplyees who slave at his 3 casino properties here and have gone without raises, even prior to the current economic conditions, his company healthcare plan, that he self insures, at a profit to him, while continually cutting benefits, and bleeding off any growth or reinvestment in his properties to feed his stockholders and himself.

    Look into the development in Central America/Mexico, that he accepted preconstruction deposits to build a resort/country club, tha the closed up the sales office and skipped town.

    Don’t take my word for it, but before you pull that lever, don‘t you think doing some research into someone’s past getting some idea of how they run their life, how they earn their living, and, most importantly, get a sense of their character – but hey, Americans wouldn’t elect a person President without doing that!
