His Media Stock company went from $80/share down to less than $14/share in the past 6 months, and people want him to run our country as a business? LOL

[pilotrt]

He loses a lot of other people's money, his suckers. There, fixed it.

This book corroborates parts of Noel Cassler's accounts of the Apprentice. We can believe Noel in his accounts of Trump's drug use as well.

By creating The Apprentice TV show, Mark Burnett will go down in history as the man who laid the groundwork for the destruction of America by a psychopath.

A fool and his father's money
are soon parted!

A Crook, a Conman and a Traitor walk into a Court. The Judge asks 'How do you plead Mr Trump?'

[grahamdeere]

He is a stable genius which means he shovels a lot of horses--t.

[jadedjaden]

tbh, I think Donald Trump would definitely do better in the debate if he didn't show up.

[PlasmaCoolantLeak]

He's real good at spending other people's money.

[leonheyhey]

If he loses his own money, that's one thing. Let's not let him lose ours, vote blue! ☑

[JoeNasr]

He was quite literally the biggest loser!

[LogicAndReason]

If not for the celebrity buffoon market, crump would be broke and homeless.

[Lisazab]

IT was a facade. A T.V. show saved his “ brand”. He’s been a fraud for decades. 🗳️💙💙

[RedStatesPovertyWatch]

I remember when successful businessmen could profit off of the gullibility of casino gamblers.

[nancywhitaker]

Burnett saved his a$$. Then dumped him on America.

[Luzy-go]

The Criminal is scared of the Prosecutor!! Period.

[janemckenzie]

He's the king of gaslighting! Critical thinking, people!

[BeverlyFields-le]

What part of “he’s a conman” do you not understand!!!

[larssoderstrom]

He must be the most unfit person ever-running for any office anywhere in modern times…both when it comes to moral and competence!

[BLACKWOLF-]

He won't debate her because he as absolutely nothing to run on except abject failure. He's a loser, always was, always will be.
