Come on man, are you really going to play this childish form of argumentation? When you posted that "Bankruptcy is in vogue these days", you knew who you were alluding to. Now you are trying to pretend to be slick and clever by acting like that was not who you had in mind when you posted that?Answer the question. Did I say anything about Trump?

You aren't even a one trick pony.
I see your point.It's not about turning away, it's passing up a chance, any chance, to win them over. Independents are the key to winning elections. Any chance you get to grab their attention in a positive way should be taken. Both parties should think that way. Choosing Abrams is a missed opportunity. Kind of like HRC missed opportunities by deciding not to campaign in certain states. Personally, I detest both parties, but I'd think you, as an outspoken Dem, would be concerned when your party continues to shoot themselves in the foot with poor choices.
That is exactly whom I lead you to. You took the bait and acted foolish. We could rehash the dialogue but I will spare the others.Come on man, are you really going to play this childish form of argumentation?

Infinitely more intelligent, educated, and articulate than Trump.
He has never filed for personal bankruptcy... but he has had 6 different business holdings file for bankruptcy. That is certainly nothing to be proud of. Here is a list:What business does she own for that "Bankruptcy" filing?
Trump personally has never filed for bankruptcy. You are a one trick pony.
You do have a huge sense of your self importance, dontcha?That is exactly whom I lead you to. You took the bait and acted foolish. We could rehash the dialogue but I will spare the others.
And yet he's still not in debt, is he?He has never filed for personal bankruptcy... but he has had 6 different business holdings file for bankruptcy. That is certainly nothing to be proud of. Here is a list:
1) The Trump Taj Mahal: It opened in April of 1990 and was in Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection just one year later because it was unable to generate enough gambling revenue to cover the massive costs of building the facility, particularly amid a recession. "The Trump Taj Mahal was a horrible business model, destined for failure from it's inception." - Steve Wynn
2) The Castle Hotel & Casino: It entered bankruptcy in March of 1992 and had the most difficulty of Trump's Atlantic City properties in covering its operational costs. The Trump Organization relinquished half of its holdings in the Castle to bondholders.
3) The Plaza Casino: One of two Trump casinos in Atlantic City to enter bankruptcy in March 1992.
4) Trump's Plaza Hotel: It was more than $550 million in debt when it entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1992.
5) Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts: A holding company for Trump's three casinos, entered Chapter 11 in November 2004 as part of a deal with bondholders to restructure $1.8 billion of debt.
6) Trump Entertainment Resorts, the casino holding company: Entered Chapter 11 in February of 2009 amid The Great Recession. The holding company emerged from bankruptcy in February 2016 and became a subsidiary of investor Carl Icahn's Icahn Enterprises (but that is a story for another day).
Simply put, Donald Trump is the single worst hotel and casino magnate in the history of this country. "He's written a lot of books about business. They all seem to end at Chapter 11." - that was an applause line from Hillary Clinton during the 2016 campaign but at least in terms of casinos, it's true. He never had one succeed.
President Donald Trump had personal liabilities of at least $315.6 million to German, US and other lenders as of mid-2017, according to a federal financial disclosure form released late on Friday by the US Office of Government Ethics.Mick,
You dropped something.
Trump is a master at manipulating the system for his own benefit and at the expense of others. That's how he ran his business, his campaign, and the presidency. The fact that he sometimes crosses over into illegality will be his undoing. Unfortunately there have always been many willing to just overlook the amorality/immorality.And yet he's still not in debt, is he?
