I've never heard the USFL story. But at the end of the day, I think this basically shows that Trump failed miserably at anything beyond buying a building and charging rent.ppaw1999;1865563 wrote: Ok point taken. I still blame him for the USFL fiasco. I know politifact isn't that great but it is another opinion.

Stop it. Trump is a knucklefuck. He has two (and maybe a half) business successes to his resume:Spock;1865508 wrote:People need to stop calling trump an idiot. He is one of the best businessman in the world. You have to be intelligent to do that. Quit being a sheep to the left wing media.
1. A real estate company that he didn't build or make profitable (his dad was already cleaning up).
2. A reality television show based on celebrity appeal and over-the-top personalities, which, in all fairness, he did start.
*The half might be that he did make a personal profit off the Miss Universe ownership.
Everything else he has been involved in has been a tire fire. The man's business resume is mostly booty meat.

You actually have to be pretty dumb to start with $200M and NOT make money buying property - if rent only covers the mortgage/loan, after 50 years that $200M should easily be worth billions in capital gains alone.
Even a mortgage company. How the hell does a man who is regarded as being so wise in real estate fail so hard at building a mortgage company?gut;1865574 wrote:I've never heard the USFL story.

He's good at self-promotion. I guess that's a form of marketing, but a limited, specific one.FatHobbit;1865576 wrote:He's pretty good at marketing

Tax man isn't the only organization that gets involved.ernest_t_bass;1865945 wrote:I thought apples were tax free?
Also, the tax man still taxes the seller of the apples based on the profit he makes from selling the apples, so the IRS is still involved in the sale.
