Trump still upset he's been dumped by tribe

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 2003

Casino mogul Donald Trump is still complaining about being dumped by the Eastern Pequot Tribe of Connecticut.

"It is unbelievable. In all the years that I've been in business I've never seen anything quite like this," Trump tells The Hartford Courant.

Trump reportedly spent $12 million to back the Paucatuck Eastern Pequot Tribe. But the larger Eastern Pequot faction voted him out in favor of gold developer David Rosow.

"Rosow is a small developer. He's done nothing of substance," Trump was quoted as saying. Both men are in the Forbes 400 list of wealthiest Americans.
