I have a question for you. Have any of DT’s businesses contributed to making America great again? Are they the kind of businesses that you want? Why hasn’t he gotten into mfg since the first time he talked about becoming president almost 30 years ago? (1988 on oprah) What effect did his businesses have on Atlantic City and other towns where his endeavors were the mainstay?

Do you remember that in 2015 right after he announced his candidacy that he said he with oprah would make an unstoppable team? Since he takes no ones advice, maybe we should really listen to him.

Did you know he testified before a Congressional committee on the economy in 1991? He said the incentive to invest was taken away under Reagan in 1986. He wanted the real estate business helped and funded Frank Dodd who was partner to the real estate bubble.

Yes, I believe Trump's businesses have made a positive impact: New York real estate, Chicago skyscraper, DC historic post office turned luxury hotel opening soon, golf courses, just to name a few. Not everyone has to be in manufacturing. Atlantic City's failure is complex, not the sole fault of Trump. Not all businesses succeed.

I think he was joking, although you have to remember that Oprah was adored. Probably could have won an election. :-)

Interesting to look back. Do you remember when VP Dick Cheney laughed at himself and Don Rumsfeld for their work on wage and price controls in the Nixon White House? Circumstances change. People change. The tax plan that Trump has laid out on his website does not reflect his views in that hearing.
