Look for the guy that posts the same stupid memes, that is besides of course. He also thinks everyone watches cable TV news, but I think he's projecting. He used the very same buzzwords in his post as you did. It's cool we all can't be original in our shit posts and "not trolling" efforts.

My question for you and your ilk is, if these threads bother you guys so much, why do you guys keep posting in them and starting them? Most if not all are started by one side of this debate.

This is the Trump whom I wish was running for President!!!!!  Maybe he can talk a little sense into his father's brain if orange man gets elected.  I'm going to pull the handle on the right, but only with 30% effort.  70 percent of me hates Trump, but 100% percent of me hates Kamala.

Very very few of the leftists are evil genius, but it is a thing. Perhaps she's one, perhaps not. In the end it doesn't matter much if you are evil genius, or their useful idiot like Obama and well a bunch of people in this thread.

If you owe the bank $10 million and can't pay, you have a big problem.

If you owe them $4 Billion and can't pay, they have a big problem.

Trump took his father's business and expanded it significantly. That itself is a pretty big story of success. Most kids that get a big successful business just burn it down.

I mean. It kind of is It's probably not the best metric, but then neither is the number of bankruptcies.

I'd generally agree that Trump isn't a particularly good businessman, at least not remotely in the league of Musk/Bezos/Jobs. Trump created and leveraged a brand very effectively, he's a genius at that.

Using bankruptcy to mitigate risk is a shitty, shrewd, effective and common practice. Pretending that Trump invented it, or is somehow worse than other ventures is bullshit. Without such things, there would be far less high risk investing and growth opportunities. No one was forced to invest in any of this stuff.

The only thing worse I can think of is the straight up government bail outs for car companies and airlines and so forth.

In terms of performance, Trump (given his seed money and current value) didn’t even outperform T-bills.  

Trump gambled wrong multiple times, and was only saved because of very forgiving bankruptcy laws.  Talking about family businesses, every time he declared bankruptcy he ruined the businesses that were left holding the bag.

You can be a shitty businessman and make money.  People do it all the time by scamming others and not paying their bills.

Tell me you don’t own and operate a business without saying it.

Once again, I have never filed for bankruptcy and I have always paid my creditors…. net worth has nothing to do with it.  Both of my businesses are very successful and they did it without fucking anyone over.

By what metric could Trump be considered a bad businessman?

The ultimate goal of starting or maintaining a business for most is to grow the net worth of the owner. He's in the top 500 richest men in the country, worth an estimated $4.5B.

Is the metric to expand the size and scope of the business? There are an estimated 33,200,000 businesses in the US. 99% of them are small businesses with less than 500 employees. The Trump organization claims 22,400 employees. The average revenue for a business in the US is $1.2million; The Trump organization is estimated around $450 million.

Trump is the richest and most successful businessman to ever occupy the Whitehouse. It isn't even close. And it drives the Communists and Trump haters with TDS crazy to admit those facts. Instead they cry and whine over some of his deals that have not gone well over his career. The truth is, he is obviously an extremely successful businessman by almost any metric. Any metric except the fake ones the TDS crowds developed to hate on him.

He did the same thing quite a bit back in this thread.

It's one thing to say that you like Trump's policies, it's quite another to create ridiculous metrics to praise Trump.

Let me guess.  You think Trump is a brilliant businessman.


Results matter.

Where does Trump rank in business? Top 5%? Top 1%?



In number of bankruptcies?


If you owe the bank $10 million and can't pay, you have a big problem.

If you owe them $4 Billion and can't pay, they have a big problem.

Trump took his father's business and expanded it significantly. That itself is a pretty big story of success. Most kids that get a big successful business just burn it down.





So running up bills you can't pay is a measure of success as long as the debt is really big?

I'm sure his father would be proud.

Using bankruptcy to mitigate risk is a shitty, shrewd, effective and common practice. Pretending that Trump invented it, or is somehow worse than other ventures is bullshit. Without such things, there would be far less high risk investing and growth opportunities. No one was forced to invest in any of this stuff.

The only thing worse I can think of is the straight up government bail outs for car companies and airlines and so forth.


You are moving the goalposts.  The question is whether or not he is a good businessman, not the risk his investors took.


The guys talking about a billionaire who runs a giant and successful business that brings in hundreds of millions in revenue, is a bad businessman, because of bankruptcy...  Are also telling me that I'm moving the goalposts and don't understand business.

LOL

full blown TDS clowns.

The purpose of business is to make money. If you can't figure that out, congratulations, you don't even know the difference between a charity and a business.

You are wrong again.

I am? I was under the impression that one had be a citizen of Thailand in order to purchase a gun. Is that not the case? I also assumed that you'd have to have some sort of importation license in order to import a gun from the states to Thailand. Is that incorrect?
I am admittedly not an expert on Thai gun laws, so please, educate me.

Q dudes have their jimmies all rustled today. They have now convinced themselves Tulsi was a sleeper agent for Trump the whole time. Her being a democrat was a head fake, she was working to implement “the plan” the whole time. Democrats smeared her now she will take them all down. Indictments coming…

It's one thing to say that you like Trump's policies, it's quite another to create ridiculous metrics to praise Trump.

He doesn’t even reply to posts that show he is wrong he just starts posting more garbage.

Ridiculous metrics like did business ventures ultimately result in making money or not?

Me purchasing a gun, which you stated that I could not do, and me bringing gun to Thailand are two separate things.
By the way, don't you live in some commie state that you are ashamed to list in your profile?

You just posted in this thread that results matter. Well, Merrkel was successful at enacting her commie worldview. Trump at MAGA, not so much.  And you are right useful idiots abound among us.

So Bernie Madoff was a good businessman?  What about an OnlyFan girl making millions?
