The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Call your Senator, Call your Congressman, Bankrupting America is NOT ok!" ~Elon Musk, Hair Club Member, Nazi saluter, Marijuana aficionado.

The "King Of Bankruptcy" Donald Trump is currently growing the US national debt by $1 Trillion every 150 days!
A million seconds ago was April 14th.
A billion seconds ago was 1994.
A TRILLION seconds ago was 30,000 B.C.

Anyone see a pattern?
Trump Airlines: It never turned a profit and defaulted on its loans by 1990, ceasing operations by 1992.
Trump Vodka: Launched in 2006, Trump promised it would become "America's most popular cocktail." It did not.
Trump Mortgage: Trump claimed "Who knows more about financing than me?" The company shut down in 2007 amid the housing market crash.
GoTrump.com: A "luxury" travel search engine launched in 2006 that ceased operations just a year later in 2007.
Trump Steaks: Launched in 2007, sales were discontinued after only two months.
Trump Steakhouse: Trump claimed, "Was the best in the world!" was closed for health code violations.
Trump Magazine: Ceased publication after only 1.5 years.
Trump University: An unaccredited scam that operated from 2005 to 2011. It faced multiple lawsuits and investigations regarding its business practices.
Trump Taj Mahal = bankrupt!
Trump Castle Hotel & Casino = bankrupt!
Trump Plaza Casino = bankrupt!
Trump Plaza Hotel = bankrupt!
Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts = bankrupt!
Trump Entertainment Resorts = bankrupt!

Guess who's next America?

"I’d be foaming at the mouth over this incompetent, wasteful, bankrupting of America every waking second of my life...if Trump had a (D) next to his name!
But since he’s wearing my team’s colors, I’ll just squint real hard and pretend the clown car on fire is a parade float! MAGA!" ~Dope1
