The notion that he is a "smart businessman" is a myth.

If he had just put his large inheritance into an S&P 500 index fund instead of doing hundreds of hit or miss transactions, he'd be at least twice as wealthy as he is.

Warren Buffett doesn't need to do a reality show or hawk neckties at Macy's.

Pretty obvious that Trump wanted/wants to build something lasting, something that benefits people rather than just accumulate wealth. Big difference in the motivation of the two men, isn’t there?

What a silly thing to say. Trump has employed thousands of people building and operating things. Enormous improvement of large sections of land and beautification of former mish-mosh neighborhoods are the result of his work. Those Macy’s ties probably paid for the Veterans Memorial in New York that Trump built because nobody else would even give it a thought. I don’t hear or see Cruz campaigning for the betterment of conditions for our veterans, but Cruz IS worried about not giving enough of our jobs away to foreigners with his outlandish support of HIB.
