This just in, Donald Trump is a welcher. Oh this is going to leave a mark!

Courtesy of USA Today: 

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. 

Trump’s companies have also been cited for 24 violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act since 2005 for failing to pay overtime or minimum wage, according to U.S. Department of Labor data. That includes 21 citations against the defunct Trump Plaza in Atlantic City and three against the also out-of-business Trump Mortgage LLC in New York. Both cases were resolved by the companies agreeing to pay back wages. 

In addition to the lawsuits, the review found more than 200 mechanic’s liens — filed by contractors and employees against Trump, his companies or his properties claiming they were owed money for their work — since the 1980s. The liens range from a $75,000 claim by a Plainview, N.Y., air conditioning and heating company to a $1 million claim from the president of a New York City real estate banking firm. On just one project, Trump’s Taj Mahal casino in Atlantic City, records released by the New Jersey Casino Control Commission in 1990 show that at least 253 subcontractors weren’t paid in full or on time, including workers who installed walls, chandeliers and plumbing.

You know this is one is going to really get to Donald Trump who seems to care much more about his reputation as a successful business man than he cares about his campaign.

Personally I am not at all surprised that Trump is an asshole who does not take responsibility for his commitments and whose business reputation is as fraudulent as everything else about him.

I can hardly wait to hear Elizabeth Warren weigh in on this.

    This is rich....why didn't any of the other players report on this during the debates? I spent most of my adult life in NJ, we all knew every detail of this criminals past. It wasn't unusual to see him on the news for some bullshit, the whole bankruptcy thing in AC was big news as the bankers were crying. They were forced to give him more money as it would have been a disaster to let him default on all his loans. Who loses money owning a casino? I have seen him up close as we had our annual convention at the Taj, trust me...he is down right creepy with that blowfish mouth, yuck.

    5. Why didn't the other candidates call him out? They were too busy kissing his ass. They all thought he would disappear and if so wanted to make sure they were nice to him so he would donate to their campaigns. By the time everyone realized he was going to win - it was too late. Cowards all of them. I don't think Trump expected to get this far. It was just fun and games and exposure for his brand. His worthless POS brand. I really hope he is destroyed - emotionally and financially

    Sarah Palin is still the "Gold Standard" that VP aspirants would have to be able to meet.

    She's fully vetted, completely trustworthy and in sync with Trump's agenda (since she helped create it) and she knows what to expect. Any issues the left could use against her has either been discredited or will make them look like conscious bullies.

    Everyone else that's been suggested can expect 110 days of pure hell. They've never been through anything close to what the media and the Dems will put them and their families through.

      When one goes bankrupt as Trump has done multiple times, everyone gets stiffed according to some formula: 50 cents on the dollar, or whatever the deal is. That's what Trump means by "deal," as he showed when he suggested the U.S. default on its int'l financial obligations.

    Donald Trump is no fool: The dangerous demagogue knows exactly what he’s saying
    Pundits call his oratory style "off-the-cuff." It's anything but. Trump employs a sophisticated form of doublespeak

    One of the obligations of a candidate is to commit to policy solutions. You review a public problem, decide what you will do when in office, and report in detail how you will address the problem. You make yourself accountable for your position.

    Instead of doing this, Trump practices what one might call “multiple-choice communication.” Whenever he speaks on a given topic, he gives multiple options on what he might mean.

    For instance, at a recent rally in Fresno, Trump stated that, despite five years of low rainfall in California, “There is no drought. They turn the water into the ocean. If I win, believe me, we’re going to start opening up the water so that you can have your farmers survive.”

    Now, this is a very confusing statement. What could he mean? Go ahead and choose your answer to this multiple-choice problem. Does Trump mean that:

      The Donald is not going to be happy about this. He has controlled media coverage of his events by requiring the camera be only on him. These shots of the seating are (pretty empty) will probably lead him to sue someone.

      See this article
      https://www.buzzfeed.com/kyleblaine/how-donald-trump-bent-television-to-his-will?utm_term=.ncjgg27dV#.obgqqN35m

      And this paragraph about his control:
      "Two network sources also confirmed the unprecedented control the television networks have surrendered to Trump in a series of private negotiations, allowing him to dictate specific details about placement of cameras at his event, to ensure coverage consists primarily of a single shot of his face." I have read this several times in different places.

      Shame on the media for agreeing to this, and hooray for this group for finally "breaking the rule".

    Mitt Romney delivered some searing criticism of Donald Trump‘s presidential campaign on Friday, hitting the presumptive Republican nominee for his own attacks on Latinos, Muslims and women.

    “I simply can’t put my name down as someone who voted for principles that suggest racism or xenophobia, misogyny, bigotry, [for someone] who’s been vulgar time and time again,” Romney, one of the GOP’s most vocal Trump critics, told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. “I don’t want to be associated with that in any way, shape or form.”

    ...“I don’t want to see trickle-down racism. I don’t want to see a president of the United States saying things which change the character of the generations of Americans that are following. Presidents have an impact on the nature of our nation,” Romney said. “And trickle-down racism, trickle-down bigotry, trickle-down misogyny, all these things are extraordinarily dangerous to the heart and character of America.”

    He added, “This is not a matter of just policy. It’s more a matter of character and integrity.”

      Thanks for posting. This quote is a perfect representation of what he does:

      “Atlantic City fueled a lot of growth for me,” Mr. Trump said in an interview in May, summing up his 25-year history here. “The money I took out of there was incredible.”

      That is just it -- HE, and many other developers, TAKE THE MONEY out of the host city. To keep money at home, businesses have to be local. They spend their money locally. National Chains don't -- and like it or not, Trump is a chain operation. They don't use local service organizations, they don't even use local contractors often. They use their own people. Very little money flows into the local economy and that is why the cities that host these monstrosity gambling casinos seem to always be poor and seedy. Lots of money comes into the city with the business but almost none of it stays. And, when it is Trump he doesn't even pay the people working for him.

      This man cannot be out President.

      In my opinion, it is primarily the right-wing, white, holier than thou, bible scripture quoting, hateful, racially bigoted, xenophobic, homophobic, misogynistic, evil, pretend-evangelical,
      pseudo-Christians, that are supporting Donald Trump to be the GOP nominee and, president. The “Right Wing Conservative so called, Christian movement/religion” is and, has always been nothing more than a big gimmick for hateful, angry, racist whites to distort Bible doctrine to glorify themselves and, self-justify their fear-mongering, hatred, racist views and, BIGOTRY towards other American ethnicities, cultures that are different from their own and, sometimes even themselves. It’s been going on for decades here in America (American Indians and, other Native American ethnicities/cultures) and, centuries abroad. Bottom line is they couldn’t care less about anything that has to do with Jesus Christ. That’s why they can so easily rally behind a “NUMBER TWO CORINTHIANS QUOTING HEATHEN” like Donald Trump.

    Dump Trump

    ...Trump’s xenophobic, male chauvinist, and bigoted bullying campaign rhetoric is not an act. It is who he is and it what the constituency that has propelled his candidacy wants him to be. While this simple truth has been self-evident throughout the campaign, the establishment has been in denial, unwilling or unable to confront reality. With every display of brutish behavior, they pronounced Trump fatally wounded—only to discover that his appalling and dangerous attacks on Mexicans, women, Muslims, people with disabilities, news reporters, and incitements to violence against demonstrators—caused his poll numbers to rise.

      It's wonderful FINALLY seeing these news organizations band together and delve into the business dealings of Trump!

      It sure took them long enough!

      Ratings are their main concern.
      First they obtained them by building Trump up to be the nominee for the Republican party. And, now taking him down!

      Damn, but we are a messed up nation!

      Trump will NEVER be elected POTUS.

      I hope, after all of this is over - as to Trump - that he ends up in jail. Can't help but wonder how many laws he's broken through his various businesses. Everything will be brought to light and the fraud will be totally exposed!

      I'll bet he's wearing diapers now due to shitting his britches as each new thing is exposed!

      This is in my wheelhouse as a former owner of a midsized commercial construction company until 18 months ago when I sold it, but I am currently still working with the new owner.
      Here's what is happening and has been happening for decades, no large construction companies will do any business with him so he hires the little outfits that think they struck gold with a huge contract.
      Then Trump doesn't pay them, all they can do is sue but trump ties their hands in civil court and the small guys can't afford to fight it or if they scrape together enough funds to do so it's tied up in court for yrs.
      There ends up being no true justice for these small companies in our justice system.
      Now, he is not the only company that does this, but his is the worst of the worst.
      The end results are workers going without pay if they were hired as an individual, or the smaller companies going under thus leaving themselves and their employees out of work. Trump has consistantly ripped off these workers and taken food, rent and mortgage payments and money for other bills out of workers pockets for decades.

    Fox News Poll: Trump drops, now trails Clinton

    Clinton’s edge over Trump is due to a six-point drop in support for him rather than an increase for her. Trump was up by 45-42 percent three weeks ago (May 14-17, 2016). Since then, he lost three points among self-identified Republicans and 11 points among independents.

    The media is digging into Trump’s business practices, and what they have uncovered is a Republican nominee who has built his life on fraud.

    The central premise of Trump’s entire campaign is that he is a great businessman who will be a great president, but it turns out that Trump wasn’t a great businessman. Donald Trump’s wealth was built on inheritance, self-promotion, and fraud.
