Real estate is about putting money in and getting money out. Companies across the world use the same model. What happens to a property after liquidation can't be a concern to the investors. So what would have suggested Trump do, stay in and fund the losses? It just goes to show his business savy for getting out in time. 

Additionally, coming from the RE development world, if Trump screwed his investors, people would stop investing with him and he suddenly can't develop anymore. This is how RE Development works. Given his size and continued business operations, the likelihood that he screwed the investors is minimal. What is more likely to have happened is someone bought his casinos without doing their due diligence and/or changed the operations model and ran it into the ground. Not Trump's problem or concern and shouldn't reflect on him.

But then again, this all makes sense. Dems want the rich to pay for everyone else that isn't willing to work and get their own. Sounds right to me.
