[quote=no_such_reality]It’s actually sad watching the majority of the public being played with “squirrel”. World leader you like and respect … Or just glossing over “may”, $915M capital loss, that’s yuge, but I carried capital losses for a lot of the 2000s too.

It wasn’t a capital loss. It’s an operating business loss. He ran a business that he lost almost a billion dollars of his own money. It was almost 2% of all net operating losses for all returns filed in 1995. Out of ever $100 lost in businesses across the country, Trump lost $2 of them. It may have been the biggest single loss of its kind of all time.
