The Book of Trump - Chapter 54: Atlantic City
from Badlands Media · host Badlands Media
Ghost and CannCon pull up a chair in the Badlands for chapter 54, and this one is a doozy. We're back in the neon-soaked 1980s and 90s, when a young, Wharton-fresh Donald Trump muscled into Atlantic City with three casinos, a suspiciously fast gambling license, and a knack for never quite getting his hands dirty. The guys dig into the concrete cartel, the Gambino and Genovese crews, Roy Cohn's mentorship, and a genuinely eyebrow-raising FBI memorandum from 1981 that puts Trump in a room with federal agents before he was ever "the Donald." Was he an informant the whole time? CannCon makes his case. Expect mobsters, honey pots, Ready Mix concrete trivia you didn't know you needed, and a theory or two about a certain Epstein connection. High on intrigue, light on tinfoil. Come for the history, stay for the plot twists.
