Didn't know that. Apparently whatever he did worked, he seems to be back on top.

yeah, he's been to the top, then down to the bottom more times than I can count. but one thing to keep in mind is that once you've made a name for yourself, there will always be someone who wants to pay you for your opinion on how to fail.

lmfao what a joke just pulled his wiki and they said when he was nearly broke in the 90s he had a "creditor-led bailout". any body know what that means? But from the sounds of it he got bailed out some how when he had financial problems. And now he says GM should go in to chap 11 when he him self was bailed out what a jackass.

FYI Trump Entertainment filed of CH 11 again. Part of the reason for making it out last time where do to the banks. The Banks would have only received pennies on the dollar if they forced him into CH 7. Lets see if he makes it this time.

You'd think with the "vast amounts of experience and money" I hear some people say about him...he could afford a better haircut....
