When Donald Trump bought a football team
As Donald Trump takes charge of the world's most powerful nation we head back to the early 1980s when his goals were slightly more modest.
One of his ambitions was to own a sport franchise and he coveted an NFL team. Unable to make this happen, he purchased the New Jersey Generals American football team of the newly formed USFL. Within two years the league had collapsed and many blame Trump for its demise.
