The financial success or failure of the casinos was a by product of laundering huge amounts of money through them.

The joke of it was how he came out ahead on several of them. Trump discovered you can borrow other people's money for a project and, if it doesn't pan out, just keep a chunk for yourself and don't pay them back.

Bialystock at least preyed on unusually old women, and it was consensual.
