The usual...take Trump out of context, lie about what he actually said then use absolute figures to compare a country with 5m people to one with 328m.
I don't know what he said and honestly don't care, but I bet he didn't pick out NZ for it's number of new cases / day! If that was the criterion, he should have picked out other countries that are currently faring a lot worse than the USA! Anyway, there is no reliable way to make an objective comparison, as each country uses different ways to test subjects and register new cases. Some just don't test (enough), some just don't report (accurately), and Russia does neither.
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

At least you have to give him the coming out of it and still manage to re-build the empire over again EDIT: I will give you too, that I don't known if he was the one re-building the empire or only the visible face of it

Given his net worth, I'd say it really doesn't matter. Sometimes filing for bankruptcy is part of the game plan. People have been known to use that to their advantage.

:thumbsup: But few people get it. I remember an interview with Thomas Sowell in which he said, not a direct quote, but close: "We expect our presidents to be economists, generals, spiritual leaders, businessmen, philanthropists, educators...it would be funny if it wasn't so tragic."

What is his net worth? He said $9B or $10B back in 2016 when he announced. I seriously doubt it's anywhere close to there, but instead probably around $1B. Of course, I have no proof of this, just like he refuses to give any proof himself.

LOL 6 times out...200? You do realize each building is a separate corporate entity, right? Best practices, especially in real estate. Don't bring the whole organization down for one casino or hotel or whatever failing.
We won't sit down. We won't shut up. We won't go quietly away. YouTube, and My Mu[sic], Films and Windows Programs, etc. and FB
Yeah, and every other failed business he tried. How are those Trump Steaks? Trump Shuttle? Dead in 2 years. "A" casino? How about The Taj Mahal, Trump Marina, and Trump Plaza - 3 times. The remaining assets reorganized as Trump Entertainment Resorts, which itself bankrupted. Trump magazine? Folded in 2 years. Trump Mortgage? Started in 2006 and folded in 2007. GoTrump.com? A travel booking site. Yeah, started in 2006, dead in 2007. Trumpnet? Never got off the ground. Trump University? We all know that ended. Trump Vodka? An idea that other people don't seem to have a problem with succeeding in. Could it be that people know that Trump doesn't drink? And that's not even the complete list...

Is an excuse. The only thing he has left is real estate and he nor his "empire" doesn't own half the buildings his name shows up on. Trump is nothing more than a brand, and a brand that is being tarnished more and more on the world stage every time he opens his mouth.

Thomas Edison failed 10,000 times when trying to make the light bulb. :laugh: what a loser!
False equivalency. A single instance of testing a filament for a light bulb is NOT a business. Oh, and how many businesses did Edison bankrupt? Technically, one, in 1894: "The phonograph was initially marketed as a business dictation machine. Entrepreneur Jesse H. Lippincott acquired control of most of the phonograph companies, including Edison's, and set up the North American Phonograph Co. in 1888. The business did not prove profitable, and when Lippincott fell ill, Edison took over the management. In 1894, the North American Phonograph Co. went into bankruptcy, a move which allowed Edison to buy back the rights to his invention." Try again. :laugh:

Dave KreskowiakIf the US's cases increased at the same rate as NZ that would be 200,000 new cases, so NZ's rate is increasing at a rate 20 times more than the US's rate. Funny how comparing massive countries with small ones is only a valid strategy when it makes Trump look bad.

You're seriously going to go that route? The "rate of increase" over a couple days is all you've got? Over the last few days, NZ went from 0, to 6, to 5 new cases. In the US, we went from 37240, to 39794, to 43798 daily new reported cases. So, in NZ's case, the daily reported cases is declining, where in the US, they are going up. Funny how you'll twist the numbers in any way to make Trump look good.
