Actually, they might have been doing that for years as well as making a lot of other donations all over the country.

300 million to black growth over the next 10 years. Sounds like discrimination to me. Why not growth of....,

Boo-hoo. You want to tell folks where to donate their money? Get your own and donate it where you want it to go.

I went to the one and only debate. Sat there to see how it was handled. 100 percent BS. Both candidates bashed the other for siding with Trump. Then the moderator questioned . How they stand on Trump.3/4 of the questions had the word Trump in them.

Good waste of time that yo could spent doing something more constructive like sorting laundry.

The ability and willingness to actually debate has been lost for decades. More than 1/2 the candidates cannot even put together a coherent sentence....

The last time I saw a "real" debate was in a movie and the debate was about U.S. Army troops being in Nicaragua.

Implosion of Trump Plaza in Atlantic City is scheduled for 9am this morning. (He's no longer an owner.)

First opened in 1984, Trump Plaza became Atlantic City’s 10th casino and in its early days offered the promise of high rollers and the allure of marquee events, including heavyweight prize fights where ringside seats fetched $1,500 and attracted celebrities.

Mr. Trump did employ thousands of people and his casinos generated tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue.

Mr. Trump cut ties with the casino in 2009, even though his name briefly continued to adorn the building. Trump Plaza closed for good in 2014 and the billionaire investor Carl C. Icahn acquired it out of bankruptcy in 2016.


The ostentatious Trump Taj Mahal closed in 2016 and is now the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. The Trump Marina Hotel Casino closed a decade ago and is now the Golden Nugget.

The Trump Plaza has stood for years as one of the city’s most visible eyesores, occupying prime land on the boardwalk. Chunks of falling debris and metal contributed to its designation as an “imminent hazard,” setting the stage for Wednesday’s demolition.

Mr. Small has said that he hoped Mr. Icahn might develop the property as a family-friendly destination hub to complement a new indoor water park that is planned for the boardwalk.

The city now has nine casinos, all of which were closed for months by the state’s coronavirus-related lockdown, thrusting 27,000 employees out of work overnight. Most casinos reopened Fourth of July weekend, but occupancy limits on the gambling floors, as well as inside restaurants and bars, remain capped at 35 percent, crimping nightlife in a city that thrives on it.

“We can’t depend on casino gaming anymore,” Mr. Small said. “We need to bring new industry here.”

With a crime rate of 55 per one thousand residents, Atlantic City has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 18.

Atlantic City – A Crumbling Gambling Empire With High Crime Rates
In Atlantic City, New Jersey, the Showboat Hotel and Casino, home of Atlantic City’s House of Blues, has closed its doors. The Revel Casino has also closed only two years after opening – and having never earned a profit.

Revel, which was losing approximately $1 million dollars per week received another financial blow in August when an armored car company employee left a bag containing $20,000+ on top of its truck. Surveillance video showed the bag was still on top of the truck when it drove away from the casino. It is unknown exactly where the bag fell off the vehicle, and who collected and is holding onto the cash.

Atlantic City’s gambling revenue has plummeted since Pennsylvania casinos opened in 2006; down from $5.2 billion to $2.86 billion in 2013. With the Revel closing, four Atlantic City casinos total have shut down in 2014.

The initial arrival of casinos into the city did serve as a boon for both employment and tourism. Unfortunately, gang-related crime is still prevalent in lower income neighborhoods, and about 30% of Atlantic City residents live below poverty. The crime rate in 2011 in Atlantic City was nearly triple the rate in Atlantic County.

Atlantic City also has a long history of corruption with five out of the most recent nine mayors pleading guilty to various crimes, including corruption and veteran benefit fraud.
