Donald Trump Stole My Bankruptcy Ideas. Good.

June 11, 2016

Hero.
Our next Pre$ident is, obviously, stealing all the ideas in this amazing book. Good for him.

Here’s the NY Times crying like a baby about “How Donald Trump Bankrupted His Atlantic City Casinos, but Still Earned Millions.

And, here – ironically from Chapter 18 – is where he got the idea:

CHAPTER 11 IS THE BEST CHAPTER IN ANY BOOK
If all else fails, declare bankruptcy, grab your severance, and let everyone else fight it out. It’s that simple. Really. Bankruptcy allows your deliberate and destructive misdeeds to be forgiven and to be done all over again. Along with its cousin Restate, Bankrupt is a Great Cheater’s best – and most legitimate – friend.

FIFA Opinion

June 3, 2015

This guy here, he gets it.

“So much of our corruption is in plain sight these days. The events of the last decade lead invariably to the conclusion that in every booth on the midway every wheel is conspicuously rigged.”

You’re welcome.  – The Cheater

High Altitude School Cheats

March 10, 2015

Facts:
– “Teach” is just an anagram for “Cheat.”
– We must cheat poor people in order to stay rich.
– Aspen is full of rich people.

With that in mind, The Cheater wrote this opinion column about the AP History revisions for The Aspen Times: Kid’s Today

Snip: … By teaching kids to become unquestioning cogs in a massive economic machine, we’ll remove critical thinking from their brains, leaving room for more exceptionalism, more patriotism, more America.

After all, “more” is just an anagram for “Rome.” And don’t we want our children’s future to burn as brightly as the great Republic of Rome?

The Cheater Says: Apparently, I love anagrams.

Morgan Stanley Agrees to $2.6 Billion Settlement for Role in Housing Bubble
