Donald Trump: ‘Does Anyone Notice That Atlantic City Lost Its Magic When I Left?’
Donald Trump took to Twitter after one of the casinos in Atlantic City that bore his name closed on Tuesday.
The Trump Plaza shut was the 4th Atlantic City casino to shut down this year. Another casino bearing the real estate tycoons name, the Trump Taj Mahal, recently declared bankruptcy and could shut down by mid-November.
Trump tweeted:
I have nothing to do with Atlantic City-sold years ago (great timing). For losers and haters, I NEVER went bankrupt. Plus $10 billion, sorry
And then this:
Does anybody notice that Atlantic City lost its magic after I left years ago. I had the big boxing, introduced UFC (ask Dana),the best shows
The Donald did give up control of both casinos a few years ago but permitted them to continue licensing his name.
