I’d never vote for him, but I love watching the msm circling the wagons regarding both liberals’ and the GOPe’s panties in twists.

Stop saying I went bankrupt. I never went bankrupt but like many great business people have used the laws to corporate advantage—smart!

And this is the man who claims to be against crony capitalism.

Yeah, well the U.S. Has been down graded & if the poops in DC keep it up, it will go bankrupt as well and every DC politician will have that on their record as well.

Why didn’t Obama just bail him out?

I wouldn’t vote for him. He’s a sideshow and a joke. I don’t care if he occasionally says something I like. It’s just the “monkey with a typewriter” syndrome.

He can only hurt us. He’d get slaughtered in a General and he makes Jebby look reasonable which can only help him get the nomination

“4 Times Donald Trump’s Companies Declared Bankruptcy”

These were legal business decisions that enabled him to take advantage of the bankruptcy laws. They were not personal bankruptcies. I remember Delta Airlines, the largest carrier at one time, declared bankruptcy for the same purpose.

Thomas Jefferson, Abe Lincoln, U.S. Grant and William McKinley all went personally bankrupt.

Try again.

Never mind the fact that he’s just as liberal and just as willing to lie as Hillary Clinton.

We need someone to get us out of bankruptcy not deeper in debt.

We need someone who will protect the U.S., not someone who uses big government to bankrupt it.

Who cares? Bankruptcy is often a business decision and one Trump is no worse from. If I recall correctly, the Bushes had theirs as well. Again, who cares?

Teddy Roosevelt said all the right things the stupid wanted to hear, stepped across the threshold of the oval office, and made a hard left progressive turn.

Bully!

I have to ask, if Anthony Wiener said all these things would these people follow him?

Honestly, I believe some of them would.

There is probably few companies you do business with that haven’t declared bankruptcy or own companies or divisions that haven’t.

He didn’t write the bankruptcy laws, he just made use of them like many others do.
