Pink slips to 1,000 casino workers at Atlantic City's Trump Plaza

[Sallow]

Oh well.

Not all the economic news is good.

Conservative hero and one time GOP Presidential Candidate Donald Trump is failing, again, at business.

Layoff notices went out on Monday for roughly 1,000 employees of Atlantic City's Trump Plaza Casino Hotel, in anticipation of a Sept. 16 closure, the company said in a statement.

The pink slips came as the company that owns the casino, Trump Entertainment Resorts, has begun "reviewing alternatives for the property," the company statement said.

"Although this review has not been completed and no final decision has been made, the company expects that it will terminate the operations of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino on or shortly after September 16, 2014," the statement said.

Nothing new really.

Everything this flim flam man touches turns to shit.

And yet, he still gets rubes to invest in his crap.

Sucker born every day!

 

[Sallow]

Guess ol Trump never learned how to earn.

 

[Rozman]

I gave up going to the casinos in Atlantic City.
Tired of losing.
Not gambling if all one does is lose.

He will not be poor, and his ego remains his life.

He pulled out 8 years ago. He licensed his name for 10% and that is all. That being said Atlantic City is going to end up losing 25% of its casino business by the end of the year if trends continue.

Donald Trump is the founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts, who owns the Trump Plaza, but he resigned in 2009 and has had nothing to do with the operations since. It just has his name.

Furthermore, Atlantic City was doomed once Pennsylvania legalized table gaming.

The odds always favor the house.

Which is why I never gamble.

Pulled out?

Trump was never in.

He's never in any of his businesses.

He doesn't put in any of his personal wealth.

He gets rubes to invest.

Creating, growing and sustaining a successful business is fucking tough as hell for the best of 'em.

Lefties don't understand that, of course, nor do they care. Roads 'n bridges 'n stuff, ya know.

I have so much respect for anyone who tries to start up a business in this shitty economy.

Then to see Elizabeth Warren and then Obama mock them at every turn makes me sick.

And this is not about Trump...

The hatred that Democrats have for business makes me sick.
They throw up every roadblock to discourage people from starting up a business.
Then they make fun of them.
Despicable.

Now why would ANYBODY make fun of Trump?

Another man would start to think twice about having his name plastered all over bankrupt businesses, but, I suspect that Trump's mind does not go in that direction.

That is mostly true. I have never liked him. He is famous for using other peoples money to make his. Of course, most of those people DO make money off of their investment so he is able to continue. Unlike the money the government takes away from us and gives to Solyndra execs and others of that ilk.

Does Trump own the Showboat Casino or the Revel Casino? Both of these casinos are in financial bind and facing bankruptcy. So I would look further than Trump as the problem. Seems that it it might be New Jersey's heavy government regulations that might be the problem here.

Sallow you got your ass handed to you. Come on. Just go quietly into this good night.

 

[Rozman]

I'm sure Libs will be cheering the fact that a fat cat like Trump crashed and burned in AC.
They will overlook the fact that he has been out of that business for years.
And what of the people that lost their jobs.
What of the fact that the loss of those jobs will create a negative ripple effect for that area....

The Libs will revel in the fact that a fat cat big business guy failed.

This is one of the reasons why the country is in such bad shape roght now.

That has nothing to do with anything. When Pennsylvania legalized gambling and all of their casinos were opened Atlantic City's gambling revenue plummeted around 70% the first year. This was all foreseen a while ago. AC had a monopoly on casino gambling out east for several decades. That's all gone now.

That's not what Trump does.

At all.

Trump's one of the biggest scam artists out there.

He gets people to invest, fleeces the "business" then declares bankruptcy so no one can touch "his" profit.

And he does this over and over again.

The only thing Trump's been good at is flipping properties.

Even then?

It's not with his money.

 

[Rozman]

New Jersey promotes the Jersey shore.
They better do something about AC or the boardwalk will be a ghost town.

Sallow you got your ass handed to you. Come on. Just go quietly into this good night.

Pride can be a bitch. There is more dignity in just admitting you made a mistake which is basically what you just said.
