tRump Warns WaPo Reporter If They Run Story About Casino Bankruptcy, ‘I’m Suing You’

http://www.mediaite.com/online/trump-warns-wapo-reporter-if-they-run-story-about-casino-bankruptcy-im-suing-you/

The Washington Post has a very in-depth report tonight about his role in the bankruptcy of his Taj Mahal Atlantic City casino back in 1991. They concluded that Trump has repeatedly “play(ed) down his personal role” in its downfall.

And Trump responded by warning the paper he might sue them.

The Post––which chronicles Trump’s history in the casino business––obtained documents showing plenty of the people he interacted with at the time were very bitter because of unfulfilled promises.

At one point, the report features Trump’s testimony before the Casino Control Commission years before, in which he argued to get a casino license. He said at one point, “It’s easier to finance if Donald Trump owns it. With me, they know there’s a certainty they would get their interest.”

Well, we'll see what kind of skeletal system the Washington Post has: gelatinous or bony.

America needs a strong businessman like me, Donald Trump. These so called facts are meaningless! I am a smart guy and I am a winner. That's what America needs are more winners!

Let's face it. Some of our candidates just get sue happy when they feel they're slighted. Just makes them look like whiners.
