It all started at Game 7 of the National League Baseball Championship Series, where Donald Trump and Steve Wynn were spotted watching the Mets and the Cardinals duke it out. Now, although the rumor of Wynn and Trump joining together to build a casino in Atlantic City has not been confirmed, neither was it denied by Trump in a recent interview in which he was prodded on the subject. Speculators are saying that somewhere along the line, somebody leaked something, because there are reports now that the supposed casino is part of a $3 billion plan.

Wynn was telephoned to comment on the speculative deal, but did not come to the phone. In fact, a representative of Wynn's said the King of Las Vegas Casinos would have nothing to say about a possible compact with Donald Trump, who was reached by reporters, but said nothing other than it was "far too early, far too premature" to comment on any proposed deals.

What Trump did confirm, which was obvious from the fact the two were even seen together, was that Trump and Wynn have long since ended a legal feud back in 1996. Trump said that contrary to what most people know, is that he and Wynn have been close friends for several years, and only had a "bad patch" for a short time.

Other developments in Atlantic City causing speculation is the news that the former CEO of Caesar's Entertainment, Wallace Barr, and former head of the New Jersey Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, Curtis Bashaw, were about to close on an eleven acre, Atlantic City Boardwalk real estate parcel, which would be used to put up a casino resort. A complementary casino at the hands of Trump and Wynn is very likely, especially considering the likely prospects of the Donald's Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino getting the boot to make more room.
