He’s a sort of a genius… like he somehow is great at tricking people and telling them what they want to hear. He’s sort of a genius at being a charismatic fraud.

An evil criminal mastermind if you will.

The only thing Trump is genius at is staying out of prison.

Another write-off. It’s amazing that these dopes are able to tie their shoelaces every day.

There are an awful lot of worthless people who admire that shitbag precisely because he steals worker wages, reneges on contracts, cheats on taxes, and pockets every dollar that passes through his grubby tiny hands. They think that makes him a winner.
They complement another pile of shitbags that admire the GQP for their cruel mistreatment of anyone, but especially the victims of ICE and the prison system. That shows “toughness”, and is extra admirable when the victims are non-white.
And all of them go hand-in-glove with the religious misogynists who want to control women’s bodies, and convert the world to their bullshit mythologies.
Remember that every single one of them is breathing oxygen they never earned and therefore don’t deserve. Feel free to fart in their share of it.

People often mistake bankruptcy for failure. In many cases it is just part of ordinary business if you want to settle (or rather, not settle) your debts. By declaring bankruptcy he basically plays a kind of ‘get out of jail free’ card, but it does require some careful forethough; how the business is set up with respect to ownership and liabilities matters a great deal. I think he’s learned one lesson early on and that is to lawyer up and make sure nothing actually traces back to him personally.
He is not a genious, but he has some really smart lawyers (I mean the ones that don’t appear on TV).
In the case of the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, bankruptcy was an abject failure. It took a whole bunch of stupid, lazy and ego-driven decisions to achieve the feat of making a casino resort go bankrupt. I guarantee you that the idiot in this video would see all of those decisions as evidence of von Clownstick’s “genius”.
Smart and unscrupulous lawyers. Starting with his mentor, the despicable Roy Cohn.

I mean, geniuses can fail at things, but yeah, Trump is no genius. I would play a game of Trivial Pursuit with him to the death.

To clarify: I didn’t mean to suggest that running a business into the ground to the point where he would need to get out of debt is smart. But making sure he’s not personally accountable for the result is.
I’m sure he doesn’t actually own ‘his’ private jet either.

Not personally financially accountable, for sure. Bankruptcy exists as a tool anyone can use regardless of how smart they are, albeit one that usually involves other consequences.
However, not having to pay his debts is where the accountability stops for Biff. The banks kept giving him loans for years afterward and the suckers kept believing he was a brilliant businessman. Normal people who aren’t accomplished grifters don’t get that treatment after declaring bankruptcy.
