Donald Trump catapulted himself into the spotlight with his gilded real estate ventures and vibrant personality. The latter is what has made his show "The Apprentice" such a huge success. And over the years, he's had an opinion or two about the business world. "In the end, you're measured not by how much you undertake but by what you finally accomplish," Trump once said. But like any successful business person, Trump has had his share of setbacks. Here, we present to you 12 Trump businesses that went belly up or no longer exist.

Anything unfavorable about Trump is clearly an attempt by the media to manipulate voters, or so I’m told.

Looking at FR history a few years back it appears that a lot of FReepers were working for the media then.

Just another example of the leftist media doing all it can to destroy Trump.

Wouldn’t it be nice to know just as much about our DEAR LEADER, and who is hiding what and pulling his strings?

According to the urban dictionary AW is attention Whore.

Thank God Trump is the only AW in the race, eh Rodney?

What are your qualifications in business? Have you ever failed, perhaps it is because you have never tried?

That's true. And the current Walt Disney corporation was Walts third attempt at starting an animated film company.

Let’s list government failures, shall we?

And shall we point out that we’re still throwing money at them?

Trump had 12 failed businesses. And how many times did Mickey Mantle strike out? How many times did Arnold Palmer miss a hole-in-one? This is the most ridiculous metric ever seen.

I don’t care about his net worth, or his business failures or successes, at all, either way, other than as a footnote.

I only care about where he has stood, and now credibly stands, on public policy.

Which means for me that it’s thumbs down on Mr. Trump’s candidacy.

Government agencies only close down when they are successful, the ones that never should have started go on forever.

AW = Attention Whore.
One that seeks validation via attention and thus seeks it out, sometimes blatantly.
Like when you are out with your girl and some hot but drunk girl starts flirting with you to gain validation thru your attention.
And she likely won’t even go home with you.
Then often, neither will the girl you came with.

Thought it was a good analogy, though it may be lost on others.

I won’t say Trump is a drunk girl flirting at a bar or nightclub, as he should be recognized for his business acumen and ability to bounce back from adversity, but POTUS?

People need to see the big picture.

First off, most of the GOPe slate are what I’d consider the AW hoors. Secondly, I’ve said here time and again the value I consider Trump brings (personally, not one in which I view as a POTUS).

I don’t want to screw (vote) Trump like I’d maybe think as some drunk dweeb in a bar with a knockout. I just want him to make liberals’ veins burst and to force our slate that I consider largely AWs to commit - concisely, precisely, conclusively and with great specificity about their positions on illegals.

His greatest value to me right now is to help bring down Jeb Bush.
