Trump has never paid his bills a day in his life.

He fucked over his own chauffeur, and thousands of his contractors and employees. He's declared bankruptcy something like eight times, leaving investors with nothing. He's gone to court over a thousand times; no other real estate developer has these problems. Interestingly, his mentor was Roy Cohn, who had the same issue of skipping bills (coincidentally I am sure).

So, long story short for libbies, Trump will buy a company named "American Fury MAGA USA Friends" and transfer all the country's debt to it, and THEN that company will declare a new feature he's devised, called "Supreme Bankruptcy" which cannot be overturned by the Supreme Court because it's Supreme, too.

Problem solved, in your face commies

......

Related to this problem, our entire country's financial system is based on debt; we don't even control our own money. The FED is controlled by select appointed bankers, who practically all work for banks or are on the boards of banks and investment firms before and after their appointed terms.

The dollar is worth less every year for a reason, it's called profiteering. It's designed to collapse; with each collapse these same interests buy everything once prices are tanked. Then, they start the process again. Every year it gets exponentially worse because math is mean.

They don't even hide it.

The best way to make money in that country is to steal.

his bankruptcies are intentional to allow russia to money laundering through his properties. he also somehow ousted MARY TRUMP of the will of his parents too.
