Former Trump Executives Get Picked up by Isle of Capri Casinos

Apparently, Donald Trump's trademark "You're Fired", does not carry any weight after the fact. Just as fast as Trump's former two executives were given the plug from their high-ranking positions with Trump Entertainment Resorts, the two were picked up to serve as executives with the St. Louis based casino operator, Isle of Capri Casinos Inc. Trump Resorts former CEO, James Perry will serve on Isle of Capri's Board of Directors, while Trump's former Executive VP, Virginia McDowell, will take over as President and Chief Operating Officer of Isle of Capri.

Apparently, Donald Trump has grown increasingly frustrated with his casino business, which some gaming analysts would say is outside of Trump's league to begin with. Rather than allowing his experienced gaming executives to call the shots, Trump seems to think that his only profitable option is to sell off his Atlantic City casinos. Reportedly, Perry was let go because he did not agree to selling the company. So when Trump's bid to sell his fledgling casinos last month came up unsuccessful, Perry was given the ringer and accused of spending too much time with his family in Santa Barbara, California.

Apparently, Trump cannot conceive the possibility that he just doesn't know how to run a profitable casino. Or, to give him the benefit of the doubt, perhaps he is making a smart business decision, considering the increased competition of the expanding Pennsylvania casino market. Perhaps Donald Trump should just stick to real estate and television "reality" shows. However the story goes, the bottom line is that McDowell and McDonald are obviously highly valued commodities in the gaming field, having been picked up so quickly.
