15:06Now PlayingWayne Barrett is considered the preeminent journalist on Donald Trump. He has been tracking Trump for decades. His 1991 biography of Trump was just republished as an ebook with the title of "TrumpThe Greatest Show on EarthThe Deals, the Downfall, the Reinvention." Democracy Now! spoke to Wayne Barrett last week at his home, where he has largely been confined due to his battle with lung cancer. We asked Barrett about Trump’s unkept promise to build affordable housing in Atlantic City in order to build a larger casino. "He was getting all kinds of agreements from the city regarding roadways and access to Trump Castle, which is out at the marina," Barrett said. "He agreed to build lowincome housing. And he had the guy to do it. He had the guy who’d done it in New York. And they made all kinds of commitments that were written right into agreements with the city of Atlantic City. And then he failed on all of them."
