I mean, if you're going to host a huge litter of unhousebroken puppies, there's gonna be a big clean up bill. And everyone knows it's useless to send an invoice to the former guy.

If I were involved in town/city government, I wouldn't give him a permit. He doesn't pay his bills.

But it takes money to hold rallies—rent facilities, pay cities for security (he often stiffs them though, still owes cities from 2020), you have to pay advance people and and POC actors to stand on the dais and applaud.

I think trump is just interested in accumulating money from scamming donors right now.

Given the declining asset value of his resort properties, lost revenues due to COVID, and the toxicity of his brand, he's farther underwater than ever.
This scamming of his cultists is probably the only way to cover the interest payments, which are estimated to be at least $29 million per month.

as he's hardly keeping his head above water. His whole financial empire is teetering on something he's intimately familiar with.

Bankruptcy. AGAIN.

After all he is so rich. Why sit in Florida? Go build a new Dump Tower? Scam some people. Cheat the world. Isn't that what life is about for a crook.
