As for Trump, he is a successful BM, if he was just a con artist then the world wouldn't have giant TRUMP letters all over the place.
The idea that Trump is a businessman and should thus run our country is ridiculous. Trump is a "successful" business man who's filed for bankruptcy four times. He's not a con artist, but you need to separate being a businessman from having full access to the nation's economic plans. Trump started out rich, with big loans from rich parents, and got richer through the real estate business. That has nothing to do with increasing or decreasing spending, managing tariffs, or managing the nation's debt, all of which he has proven that he would be incompetent in.
There is a difference between normal bankruptcies, and Trump's bankruptcies. IIRC Trump used Chapter 11, not chapter 7.
Also lots of people that inherit or win money tend to lose it. Trump succeed in a way very few did.
Chapter 11 bankruptcy just means he bankrupted himself to the point that he needed to pay creditors to step in, bail him out, and reorganize his business to be able to pay his creditors back over time. Not ideal for a businessman, no.
