Even when his casinos and other business ventures were crashing and burning, he always seemed to find SOME BANK that would lend him MORE. He was the higest of high risk borrowers, with an EARNED reputation of someone who never paid his debts, and yet they kept showering him with cash, because he was Trump.

Nice work if you can get it, I guess.
