He sees having debt as putting one in a position of strength towards one's creditors.

... You do remember that David Letterman segment, in which Letterman not only asks Trump where his ties are made but then informs him they are made in China, don’t you? ...

Donald Trump Dress Shirts ... were made in Bangladesh ...

The fact that Trump makes chandeliers in the first place, let alone chandeliers that cost more than $1,000, is not surprising. Neither is the fact that they are, at least in part, made in China ...

The fucking media will treat this just like it's a viable option.

"We're going to steal Iraq's oil" and the media reports it while failing to point out it's against international law.

"Mexico will pay for the wall" and the media reports it as if it's ever going to happen.

"I have proof Obama is not a citizen" and the media treats it like something that requires investigation.

That's what is truly outrageous. The fucker farts some fucking nonsense out of his ass, and the media treats it as some type of "viable" or "normal" option.
