major debacle
(508 posts)9. To be fair and balanced, Trump no longer owns or runs Trump Taj Mahal
... but it's still nice to to see his name on a failed enterprise.
It is owned by [link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Entertainment_Resorts|, in which Trump also has no interest, if what I read at Wikipedia is correct.
