Ex-Dem Senator Bill Bradley: Trump’s Just a ‘Below-Average Real Estate Developer’

Former New Jersey senator Bill Bradley said on MSNBC today that Donald Trump‘s business success is pretty overrated.

After criticizing Trump for being the most divisive candidate in recent history, Bradley told Chuck Todd, “He is a below-average real estate developer who almost went bankrupt because he got addicted to real estate tax shelters.”

He said that when the tax reform he pushed years ago was passed, Trump called it a catastrophe.. for him, but it ended up benefitting the rest of the country.

And while he understands that people want change, Bradley said he “could take a gun and shoot myself in the foot, that’s change.”
