That's business school from a guy who ran casinos into the ground. Nice work America.

It's true. "Casinos," plural. CASINOS PLURAL, EVERYBODY.

y'all are spelling 'russian money laundering operations' wrong.

Even worse. How does one bankrupt a Russian money laundering operation? You'd think they would do their best to keep that shit running.

I think they intentionally go out of business before the Feds have a chance to investigate it.

Absolutely not. Bankruptcy proceedings get your financial records gone over with a fine tooth comb. You need to keep your cover business healthy within reason to fly under the radar. You didn't see the mob casinos going bankrupt.

I found this https://www.cnn.com/2017/05/22/politics/trump-taj-mahal/index.html

So it’s at least alleged and they paid to settle. But wouldn’t you want to keep your laundry working? Idk

They probably figured out better ways to do it through Trump org and not have to subject themselves to casino regulator investigations.
