The Trump name was officially vanquished Wednesday from the town that brought the former president so much fame, fortune, and failure, as the long crumbling Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in the heart of Atlantic City was finally imploded.
Donald Trump’s three Atlantic City casinos all ultimately fell into bankruptcy and were sold, but after he opened Trump Plaza, his first, in 1984, his name became entwined with this resort town on the ocean. That Trumpian symbolism hung heavy in the cold air as the last building in town with his name on it was blown to rubble with 3,000 sticks of dynamite.
