The IMPOTUS is the biggest loser in American business history.

Trump sold himself as a master dealmaker yet he hemorrhaged billions in the 80's, 90’s, and has refused to release his most recent tax returns. Has he sold America a false bill of goods?

Perry Phillips

Oh, my yes! He has sold a false bill of goods.

This morning the Donald’s tax returns were made public. CSNBC reported that the returns show:

He has lost more money (as an individual) than any other person in the United States, year over year since 1991.He has lost a far greater sum than he has earned.There is 54M dollars still unaccounted for, in terms of where it came from, that remains in question—from a return within the last 6 years.Eric and Donald Jr. already admitted that this money came from “the Russians”A false bill of goods? Yes. He was not a successful businessman, unless you include those who have also lost more money than anyone else in your own definition of what success is and what the definition of businessman is as well.

And yet he sits in front of his screen. Tweeting out the only thing he can think of, “Fake News!” Not true. (To be followed with: Look at Nancy, Obama, HRC, Gretta!) His computer screen is safe. Lowers the chance of slurring. Lower chance of being required to answer questions directly, off the cuff… without the hesitation required to think up something that is not true—but “might” be. Something he thinks is a passable lie.

Of course, a lie will be the only response to any question DJT is asked, however, I propose that having more time to create something fictional, is always better if an additional few minutes can be added to the creative process. Having to think on his feet makes him defensive.

His panic is under such a thin veneer. What next?

More and more of his “branding” is continuing to be revealed as McDonald’s served at an Alexander’s Steakhouse restaurant.

The staff is always carrying on, telling the customers at Alexander’s every night that it is the best, most successful steakhouse in the world because of its high-quality food.

Hundreds of thousands of people accept this at face value, piling into the restaurant each night for dinner. Until the day comes when a passerby notices a McDonald’s a semi-truck parked outside, unloading a tremendous amount of inventory.

Curious the passerby calls the local news and tells what she saw to the investigatiive journalism team that who, in rather short order, discover that Alexander’s has always been serving McDonald’s food at this favorite establishment of everyone. Charging $61 per person!

Everyone is angry. Everyone feels like that have been ripped off with such intention! Never trying to hide the McDonald’s truck, dropping off weekly “supplies” in front of everyone!

Everyone has a hard time digesting that it never was truly Alexander’s cuisine after all.

And this, is the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more deeply insulting. Information and proof of wrongdoing that has not yet come to light. Probably the insult to his own supporters will be far greater than to any other. And may explain some of what the outrageous defensiveness is all about.

So, a false bill of goods. Yes. Without question. Some of his supporters might have been susceptible to his kind of bull-shitery because (lucky for them) they have not had a great deal of experience in dealing with someone who fancies themselves as an “x” when they are really a “y.”
