Allowing Mr Trump to keep HIS money is not a bailout.
Tell that to his investors........
.......Even as his companies did poorly, Mr. Trump did well. He put up little of his own money, shifted personal debts to the casinos and collected millions of dollars in salary, bonuses and other payments. The burden of his failures fell on investors and others who had bet on his business acumen.......

Investors read, or should have read, the company prospectus.
Risks in a Prospectus
A prospectus is issued as a way of informing investors about the risks involved with investing in a stock or mutual fund. The information also guards the issuing company against claims that pertinent information was not fully detailed before the investor put money into a security.
Risks are typically disclosed early in the prospectus and described in more detail later. The age of the company, amount of management experience and involvement in the business, and capitalization of the stock issuer are described. A table detailing which people own stock is included and should be studied to determine whether the principals are holding onto their stock. If shares are being liquidated, there may be a financial issue with the business.
