Bill Gates lost $22 billion in 2000.

You can't really deny that he's a good business man, he is a multi billionaire, most of whom lose tons at one point or another. He is one of the greatest businessmen who ever lived.

You claim to be a good business man and you lost everything twice and your ENTIRE business went under.

Daddy gave him 14 million bucks to start off with, took him 40 years to get to this point...not that impressive....
just buy apartment t buildings, sell them , repeat....not rocket surgery...plus he's filed for bankruptcy multiple time

Lol at you sucking on his balls....
Plus being a good businessman has nothing to do with being a good president or even being president at all...I'd rather have a middle class guy who is actually in touch with the people who is there to server, not some billionaire male chauvinistic assface who thinks the people are here to serve him...
open your fucking eyes man, seriously

He is a CLEVER businessman but 4 of his efforts failed miserably and he's still under investigation from other business matters like his University. He's far from one of the greatest businessmen of all time but he knows how to work the system.
He has put thousands out of work a few times and he still has allegation pf sexual wrongdoings

Bill Gates has donated over $30 billion (way more than Trump has ever been worth) personally to his charity, so I'm not sure that qualifies as really 'losing' it.

It wasn't even required of you to read past the bolded headline to find out his losses were stock-related. If you're not even going to open the link, please don't respond to the link.

Thanks.

Is that your way of backpedaling and moving goalposts?

Weak...

To be fair, claiming a loss doesn't mean you actually lost money, particularly in real estate.

If he was audited every year, then it seems like he's following tax code.

Trump is hiding his tax returns simply because he doesn't want the voting public to see that he has manipulated and worked the system to pay virtually no taxes for many years...And, Trump isn't unique...many of the wealthier americans take advantage of the loopholes and the protections this trickle down government has afforded them...many of these guys not only don't want to pay their fair share, but they don't want you to know they don't pay their fair share...

People like Rob have no problem with the wealthy, and the corporations robbing this country blind with corporate welfare and write offs, but then they bitch and moan about some hoodrat getting a few dollars worth of foodstamps, which is adrop in the bucket compared to what guys like Trump have taken over the years...
