Trump who has gone bankrupt a few times also has a problem paying his bills so US banks stopped lending him money, that's why he has become so involved with the scum of the earth, they have the money he needs. Trump is a man without scruples, inviting future donors to the white house or one of his resorts is just business, not the peoples business but his family's business. This is why he hides who comes and goes, he is trying to beat Bushes banking scam?
