As problems mounted, Trump blamed the casinos' failures on the decisions of the deceased executives in the press.
O'Donnell said he pleaded with Trump not to use "the convenient excuse, that he could blame two dead men for his problems with all of his other investments." Trump refused, and O'Donnell said he resigned as a result; Trump said he was fired.
A year after the helicopter crash, the Trump Taj Mahal was nearly $3 billion in debt and went bankrupt in 1991. In 1992, both the Trump Plaza and the Trump Castle declared bankruptcy as well.
Trump has dismissed O'Donnell as a "disgruntled former employee."
"I am a very disgruntled former employee," O'Donnell told the Post.
"I didn't like working somebody who would blame dead men for his problems...I didn't like anything about his character as it developed over time there. I didn't like anything morally about him. I got to know he was just a facade. This wasn't a brilliant businessman."

I just finished watching episode 2 of a Netflix series on Drumpf. The man is evil to the core. The incident above illustrates his character perfectly: 3 of his employees die in a crash. First he blames them for chartering an iffy chopper, then claims that he was supposed to fly with them (to get attention and sympathy), after which he heaps all his failures on them.

Did Trump blame execs killed in crash for casino woes?
The former president of Trump's Atlantic City casinos says the tycoon routinely blamed deceased executives who had nothing to do with his woes.
