泰姬陵赌场

    1990年，费城证券公司詹尼蒙哥马利斯科特（Janney Montgomery Scott）的分析师马文•罗夫曼，对特朗普当时正在建设的泰姬陵赌场（Taj Mahal Casino）的盈利能力表示质疑，让特朗普大为光火。他威胁詹尼蒙哥马利斯科特公司，罗夫曼要么道歉（要么走人），否则他就起诉这家公司。最后，这家经纪公司确实辞退了罗夫曼，不过公司对外宣称，辞退罗夫曼的决定与特朗普的威胁没有任何关系。

    后来，罗夫曼奋起反击，控告特朗普诽谤，并用不正当手段干涉他的就业。同时他还提出200万美元的索赔，诉讼一直持续到第二年方告结束。此外，罗夫曼还要求纽约证交所（New York Stock Exchange）仲裁委员会强制经纪公司补偿因诽谤、非法解雇等造成的损失，以及其他由于此事造成的损失。最终结果是，詹尼蒙哥马利斯科特公司向罗夫曼支付了750,000美元。

    Taj Mahal Casino

    When Marvin Roffman, an analyst at Philadelphia brokerage Janney Montgomery Scott, questioned the profitability of Trump's then-under-construction Taj Mahal casino in 1990, The Donald was furious. He told Janney Montgomery Scott that if Roffman didn't apologize (or lose his job), he would sue the firm. The brokerage did end up firing Roffman -- though it claimed that the decision had nothing to do with Trump's threat.

    The analyst later fired back, suing Trump for defamation and wrongful interference with his employment -- the $2 million suit was settled the following year. He also asked a New York Stock Exchange arbitration panel to order the brokerage to compensate him for defamation, wrongful discharge, and his trouble. The firm paid Roffman $750,000.
