Can Sports Betting Do for Atlantic City What Donald Trump Couldn’t? (The New York Times, 6/25/2018)
Donald Trump is now running the federal governemnt like he ran his businesses: recklessly, imperiously. The president, then a casino impresario, opened the Trump Taj Mahal, the biggest gambling venue on the boardwalk, with great fanfare and at a cost of $1.2 billion in 1990, only to have it collapse into bankruptcy the following year. After years of decline, it shut down in 2016, seemingly consigned to symbolize the ruinous excess here during the Trump era.
Atlantic City's population peaked in 1930.
