Just wondering about the contractors he stiffed

[90-percent]

Because he's been doing it his entire adult life. A guy I used to work with knows a friend of his father that tfg stiffed. $200,000 electrical work . Bankrupted his company, people lost jobs, and dads friend Committed suicide.


So journalists should research how many got stiffed and what the outcome was .

And I,m throwing it against the DU wall so my well informed DU buds can provide a source of djts grifting.


Get back to me fellow travelers.



Yours in Democracy

2. I remember articles about this when Stabul Geenius was running in 2016

During the Atlantic City casino boom in the 1980s, Philadelphia cabinet-builder Edward Friel Jr. landed a $400,000 contract to build the bases for slot machines, registration desks, bars and other cabinets at Harrah's at Trump Plaza.

...

Edward’s son, Paul, who was the firm’s accountant, still remembers the amount of that bill more than 30 years later: $83,600. The reason: the money never came. “That began the demise of the Edward J. Friel Company… which has been around since my grandfather,” he said.

Donald Trump often portrays himself as a savior of the working class who will "protect your job." But a USA TODAY NETWORK analysis found he has been involved in more than 3,500 lawsuits over the past three decades — and a large number of those involve ordinary Americans, like the Friels, who say Trump or his companies have refused to pay them.

At least 60 lawsuits, along with hundreds of liens, judgments, and other government filings reviewed by the USA TODAY NETWORK, document people who have accused Trump and his businesses of failing to pay them for their work. Among them: a dishwasher in Florida. A glass company in New Jersey. A carpet company. A plumber. Painters. Forty-eight waiters. Dozens of bartenders and other hourly workers at his resorts and clubs, coast to coast. Real estate brokers who sold his properties. And, ironically, several law firms that once represented him in these suits and others.....

3. to me, his bankruptcies were his greatest character flaw.

when you take out bankruptcy, the money you owe is forgiven. All your creditors get stiffed. I don't care about the banks, they should have known better, but electricians, painters, piano salesmen, hundreds of people lose money, go out of business, lose their jobs and yes, commit suicide because of you, DJT.

And you claim to be worth $20B. You could have taken a small portion of that, say a billion or two, and paid back all the people you stiffed in your bankruptcies and other misdealings. You didn't. That makes you a lower than dirt in my book as you sit on your golden toilet.

Scum.
