Trump creates certain lies about himself. And then tries to hide evidence that can disprove those statements.

Trump is not a great businessman.

He had the opportunity to buy the Dallas Cowboys five years before its current owner for $50 million.
It is worth today $8 Billion.

He bought the USFL Generals instead for $10 million.
It was moderately successful until Trump talked the other owners in competing head to head against the NFL in the fall.
Then it had to shutdown.
