Harry Reid: Trump Barred From Casino Business In Nevada Due To Sordid Record

Trump has a gaming license for his Las Vegas hotel, but Reid says if he wanted to use it, the state would not let him.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) claims that Donald Trump’s history of mismanaging casinos would prevent him from getting government approval for a gaming business in Nevada.

In a Washington Post interview published Wednesday, Reid initially asserted that Nevada denied the Republican nominee a gaming license for the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. The hotel, unlike many major hotels in Las Vegas, does not offer gambling.

“I may not be an expert on a lot of stuff, but I’m an expert on gaming licenses,” Reid, a former chairman of the Nevada Gaming Commission, told Post reporter Ben Terris. “You can’t have filed 14 bankruptcies, cheat people out of stuff. In gaming circles, if somebody does something bad once, you can’t get a gaming license. He’s done something bad his whole life.”

Terris’ story notes that Trump did, in fact, secure a gaming license from the state in 2004, but has chosen not to use it. Reid, however, insisted that the state would not allow Trump to build a casino now, even if the real estate mogul wanted to do so.

Reid doubled down on the line of attack in a Senate floor speech on Thursday, though it was unclear if he was maintaining that Trump would still be prevented from entering the casino industry in Nevada.

Trump “applied for a license a number of years ago in Nevada and was a passive owner. He got one. It was just perfunctory,” Reid said. “If he applied for a license after what he did in Atlantic City and what he has done since, he couldn’t get a gaming license in Nevada.”

Reid is known as a shrewd political tactician and mudslinger who is sometimes unwilling to let the precise facts get in the way of a sharp attack on an opponent. In 2012, Reid stirred controversy when he claimed, without evidence, that then-GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney was not releasing more than two years’ worth of tax returns because he hadn’t paid taxes for 10 years. Reid said this information came from an unnamed investor in Bain Capital, the private equity firm Romney co-founded.

Reid told The Washington Post he stands by the attack on Romney.

“It’s one of the best things I’ve ever done,” he said.

Reid is certainly correct that Trump’s record as a casino owner in Atlantic City, New Jersey, is clouded by accusations of financial mismanagement. Trump squeezed his struggling casinos for millions in personal payouts, even as their financial failure cost stock- and bondholders $1.5 billion, according to a June investigation by The New York Times.

In a period from the mid-1990s to the mid-2000s, when other casinos prospered, Trump’s casinos were hemorrhaging money, the Times noted.

Small businesses that helped furnish and supply Trump’s casinos in Atlantic City were among the hundreds of outfits that Trump has systematically stiffed, according to a USA Today investigation in June.

And Trump has a long history of business dealings with known organized crime figures. At least one such deal involved purchasing land from mobsters, which allowed Trump to build a parking lot for one of his Atlantic City casinos.

Reid, who is retiring from the Senate in January after three decades, told The Washington Post that he plans to campaign for Democratic candidates in down-ballot races, rather than campaigning for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton directly. He argues that voters should reject Republican candidates across the board, since the party, he says, enabled Trump’s rise with its reliance on racist dog whistles, climate change denial and other irrational ideas.

“Donald Trump was created by Republicans in the House and Senate,” he told the Post. “Every crazy idea he’s come up with was originally with them.”

Funny, coming from you. Please post it another five or six times, in the same message.

He can say anything he wants about what they wouldn't do.

It doesn't prove anything.

I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire.
I would......

Blah blah blah

Let's see, QUEEN LLATIFAH... you've started 37 threads out of the 25,000+ posts you've made. In this forum, a total of 12.

And you're saying WHAT about ME?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !

[IIFFOFRDB]

Dads teach your children well... http://clashdaily.com/2016/09/questi...el-boys-pussy/

1. Make sure your children appreciate this nation, its founding docs and its original intent and not some wet dream Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn had back in the late ‘60s when they were high on acid, Che Guevara and Saul Alinsky. Especially be certain that they love our Armed Forces who protect us and not slice and dice their benefits.

2. Make certain your kids know it’s wrong to lie your butt off to people who have given you their trust. For instance, if you tell people “they can keep their health care plan and their doctors, period!” then mean that, dammit.


3. If in the event your offspring does make mistakes and situations get worse under their care, train your child to own their mistakes instead of blaming others for their hamfisted, ill- thought out blunders.

4. Teach your child that glib speeches read from a teleprompter that are laced with platitudes and horse manure do not re-place character, honesty and integrity.

5. Lovingly school your young child that when he gets older, writing two books about yourself, or worse yet, having them ghost-written about oneself, is really, really weird and doesn’t make one a great leader but rather a Little Lord Fauntleroy.

6. Take the time also to train your dear child to throw a baseball properly so he doesn’t look … uh … um … effeminate should he ever be called upon to throw out a first pitch during a baseball game.

7. Father, if you have a son, let him know it’s okay for him to drink out of a straw when he’s like … uh … three but not when he’s the leader of the free world. At least not in public; and if he ever does drink from a straw in public tell him to never look someone of the same sex in the eye while doing so. The same goes for eating a banana.

8. In addition, dads, please instruct your spawn not to frickin’ spy on people. Okay? It’s rude and no one likes it and people will think you’re a paranoid control freak.

9. And finally, teach your young whippersnapper if he is a boy to forego marrying a mean woman who’s ashamed of this nation and wants to police what people eat and don’t eat.

I'm saying you are an attention whore.

[gnadfly]

and he LIKES the butt hurt!

I still want to know how Reid got Romney's tax returns. My guess is multiple felonies, and Louis Lerner, were involved.

[CuteOldGuy]

Harry Reid? Seriously, Assup, could you find anyone with less credibility? Gawd, you're a moron.

Who gives a frog's fat ass what YOU are saying? For a change, it has zilch to do with the topic of Drumpf's well-documented failure as a casino operator, which by the way, is an outstanding qualification to be President.

You're the biggest blustered on this board, threatening violence and wishing death on other posters.

An attack by you is a source of great pride for me.

"Faggot!"

First off, nobody gives a rats ass what you say. Secondly, everybody ridicules you here, even the hookers. Loser
