Most employers run a credit check, if not more, before or shortly after hiring. Lying in the application process is always grounds for termination "with cause" at any point, and of course may even be criminal. Donald Trump NEVER declared bankruptcy in any way. Some of his corporations (the businesses he AND many others may own) have. Bankruptcy is NOT a tax law in any way. While there are a tax aspects to bankruptcy (as there are with any financial matter), it is totally separate in all legal respects. It even has it's own court system, totally independent of all others.
Bankruptcy is financial failure. The credit and other effect effect are a reflection of this. Frequently people who do not show ability in their own financial affairs are poor decision makers in other things, as well as being subject to pressures by others who will take advantage of their weakness. Having to prove one has learned how o prioritize and exercise the control needed to properly handle their affairs, and legal promises to what they will do, like pay (or repay, etc), is an absolutely reasonable requirement for potential employer and society generally to impose on anyone that has admittedly declared they have failed and used the law to be given a "fresh start", and have others take the loss for their inability.
There are disadvantages and advantages in filing for bankruptcy that should all be considered before making such a major decision. Some other disadvantages include: Losing credit cards, Losing non-essential possessions, Inability to obtain a mortgage for some time, Embarrassment. Lastly, you have to consider the fact that not all debt is dischargeable and bearing that in mind you need to look at your debt and what can and cannot be discharged.
