Donald Trump's Business Failures: A Look at Some of His Notable Missteps • Donald Trump, known for his business ventures, has faced several failures throughout his career. One notable misstep was the acquisition of Eastern Air Shuttle in 1988, which failed due to a lack of customer interest and high fuel prices. • Another venture that did not succeed was Trump Mortgage, launched in 2006. Poor timing, as the housing market crashed in 2007, and questionable hiring decisions contributed to its closure within a year and a half. • Trump's attempt at creating a board game called Trump: The Game in 1989 fell short of sales expectations, leading to its revival with updated features 15 years later. • Despite criticizing Chinese-made products, Trump's own clothing line is manufactured in China, Mexico, and Bangladesh. • Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc., which operated casinos in Atlantic City, filed for bankruptcy protection three times, with Trump distancing himself from the company despite owning a significant portion of its stock. https://time.com/4343030/donald-trump-failures/
