As for his bankruptcies, he never filed for personal bankruptcy. All were chapter 11, business reorganization. From American Bankruptcy Institute "it can often be said that a Chapter 11 bankruptcy is in the best interests of the business and in no way a reflection of a poorly run company. PolitiFact took a look at all four of Trump’s Chapter 11 bankruptcies and determined that they were a result of business struggles largely beyond the billionaire-turned-presidential-candidate’s control."
Politifacts actual words were "much was out of Trump’s control -- such as a struggling casino industry. But Trump is certainly not blameless."
So his business history is not as bleak and corrupt as you paint it. Especially considering that he currently has several properties and enterprises that are operating successfully.
But I'm pretty sure, that you're pretty sure, that Trump is a corrupt tax and business cheat that effs over everyone he comes in contact with and will destroy America . . . because you say so.

Your in denial I get it, just because he acquired property and wealth, he did it walking over the backs of contractors, businesses and lenders he f*cked along the way. Your bar for success is really low, I would never consider a man who filed four bankruptcy’s and pays less tax (you do realize that is a reflection of how badly he is doing) than the average Americans monthly heath care premium.
