Trump talked up his companies that went bankrupt in a much more public way than he did others. Got a bunch of people to buy in - then watched them go under. So much that only one bank would give him financing…
Many of Trump’s businesses have flown under the radar. Indeed, Trump has full or partial ownership of approximately 500 companies in the United States alone.
Those are the one’s in the United States. So if he formed a company for a golf course in a different county – and it’s under Trump Enterprises, it wouldn’t be counted in the 500.
Guy I worked for years ago, wasn’t llc’s but regular corporations . . he had one for each am/fm combo radio station he owned. But he didn’t have an umbrella company over them all.
Having a stake doesn’t mean he has a say in how they’re run. In numerous properties with his name he has no majority stake, only a small minority for use of his name.
Democrats expanded their influence in state capitols on Tuesday, flipping more than 300 state legislative seats while also claiming a majority of the nation’s attorney general offices.
The Democratic gains mark a significant turnaround for a party that had been losing clout in state legislatures for nearly a decade, allowing Republicans in many states to loosen restrictions on firearms, push through new voter-identification laws and weaken environmental regulations. Democrats had also ceded enormous power to Republicans to redraw congressional boundaries.
The victories — buoyed by an apparent net Democratic pickup of seven governorships — will also help fortify the party’s efforts to use states as a firewall against President Trump, including through coordinated lawsuits against the administration.
