    I learned yesterday that the USFL was initially supposed to be a summer league, to give football players who weren’t NFL-ready out of college a chance to upskill. Donald Trump insisted it have games in the fall, directly competing with the NFL instead. The league failed the same year it moved.

    Donald Trump is the anti-Midas: everything he touches turns into garbage.

      His track record speaks for itself

      Why so many people are taken in by the sheer volume of his ridiculous untenable scams is beyond me

      Where is Trump airlines?

      Trump Steaks?

      Trump University?

      Trump’s Taj Mahal Casino?

      What happened with ACN?

      What happened to Trump’s yacht, the Trump Princess? You know, the nearly 300’ megayacht he bought for $29M from Sultan of Brunei as the 3rd owner, had completely refitted and then heavily lobbied for special dredging permits in Atlantic City only to sell the yacht 3 years later for $20M. (That was some serious 5D chess shit right there)

      What happened to the Donald J Trump Foundation? Why are Trump’s kids banned from operating a charity in the state of New York in the financial capital of the world?

      Why has Trump been convicted of 34 counts of felony fraud?

      Why would Trump claim this is all just partisan hackery?

      What is this? Shawshank Prison?
