Donald Trump Gripes About the Press During 1990 Opening of Atlantic City Casino

In April 1990, Donald Trump opened what he called “The Eighth Wonder of the World” when he cut the ribbon on the Trump Taj Mahal casino in Atlantic City, N.J. During the ceremony, he sat down with Inside Edition when he showed he had problems with the media even back then, saying, “You have a lot of dishonest reporters in my opinion. You have a lot of dishonest reporters who willingly know they are wrong." Trump sold his interest in the property in 2009, and it closed for good in 2016. #InsideEdition

Trump's Taj Mahal casino opened on April 2, 1990 In 1991, the Taj Mahal went through a prepackaged bankruptcy, resulting in Trump giving a 50 percent stake in the business to its bondholders in exchange for lowered interest rates and a longer payoff schedule.] Trump's new publicly traded company, Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts, purchased the Taj Mahal in 1996, in a transaction that valued the property at $890 million. In the 1990s, Trump's Taj Mahal casino was "the world's largest, most flamboyant casino" and Trump took on an "enormous amount of debt" to launch it. During eighteen months after its April 2, 1990 opening, when the Casino was on the verge of bankruptcy, it became the "preferred gambling spot for Russian mobsters living in Brooklyn, according to federal investigators who tracked organized crime in New York City". On Monday, October 10, 2016, the Trump Taj Mahal Hotel and Casino was shut down after the chaos of casino workers on strike
