When he built Trump Tower back in the 1980s, Jackie Kennedy was New York City’s most beloved resident. She was famous for her efforts to save Grand Central Station and her love of great old buildings.
Trump personally promised the head of the biggest museum in New York that he’d preserve the façade of the building he was demolishing to put up his Tower. He lied and razed the place to the ground.
The most desperate ass kisser on the planet threw away a chance to get in good with America’s living Queen because he was greedy and stupid.
I bet he got a change order from the contractor, and upon seeing that saving the facade would coat more than zero dollars, said fuck that noise. Being greedy in petty ways is surprisingly common for people who already live a hyper-privileged post-scarcity existence.
It’s also worth noting that one of Trump’s 6 bankruptcies was from a Casino in Atlantic City. You have to be especially stupid to go bankrupt running a casino (on borrowed money of course). They’re literally rigged for profiting the owners.
Yeah, money laundering has clearly been a staple of Trump’s career. What started with selling condos in trump tower to Russian oligarchs after he couldn’t borrow money from banks anymore due to his tendency to default on loans, has now turned into something much worse unfortunately.
His latest scams with crypto just hurt to watch…hundreds of millions just stolen from his trusting followers.
Perhaps the biggest failing of the Dems during Biden’s term (when there was still time for justice) was refusing to investigate Trump’s financial crimes and ties to Russian monied interests. They could have nailed him to the wall so easily there, but the investigation likely would have uncovered many more elites who are profiting the same way, so of course we can’t have that.
Once you realize he’s stupid, it all makes sense.

Here’s the entire story. Spoiler = John Barron makes a cameo
That was a pretty stupid maneuver, agreed.

Bankrupting a casino just screams “hey we’re laundering money over here.” I think you’d have to actively sabotage a casino to make it fail.

What are the trumpers saying about losing money on his cryptosystem scams? Do they realise at that point that he’s an asshole?
