10. His modeling agency

Trump also started a "modeling" agency in the late 1990s. That business was shut down during his 2015 campaign when reporters started asking questions about it. I've always thought that he had a pipeline going: pageants to modeling agency to ? (definitely not big photo shoots). My aunt was a fashion model in the 1950s and early 1960s, in New York, employed by the number 1 modeling agency. She not only appeared in fashion magazines, but also on TV in commercials when they were shot live during a program. She appeared on the Gary Moore show to name one - along with Hope Lange. Trump's modeling agency never appeared to run as a legitimate agency. I'd like some sharp investigative reporter to dig up some info on that.
