That what makes his corporate bankruptcies so dubious. He has the personal wealth to pay off his financial obligations. Instead he keeps his fortune and allows his companies to default ie, steal from his creditors. An honorable man pays his debts.

Stand by for the Trump apologists ...

It's like a religious cult, isn't it?

They are getting their last digs in. I don’t want to unfairly accuse them of smearing Rubio so they can try and salvage today, but someone is spreading an accusation that Rubio is/was a hot tub homo party boy.
Either it is a cheap smear or or he actually WAS/is a pervert, one or the other .... “Marco” ... “Polo!”

What statements?

It is common knowledge that Trump has had a several bankruptcies where he left a lot of people unpaid. That’s how filing bankruptcy works. Is that not known to you?

Read the law. Chapter 7 is different from Chapter 11.

Trump has never filed personal bankruptcy. 4 out of his hundreds of business interests went into Bankruptcy but that is not the same thing as filing bankruptcy personally which is what his critics are alluding to and all the businesses are still operational today. Its not abnormal to have failures in business but Trump has done very well in mitigating the failures and maximizing his successes. Trying to deny him that is ridiculous.

That’s a major problem here....NONE of the anti-Trumpers/rabid Cruzers know or understand financial things, even the difference between a business going into CHAPTER 11 and personal, bankruptcy. Actually, there are a whole LOT of other things that they are also completely in the dark about and are being played like badly made violins, by anti-Trumper pundits and stupidly written articles.

It’s all hogwash, which YOU and your ilk guzzle down, as though it was something tastey.

He filed for chapter 11 each time to “reorganize” your debt.

By definition you file when you can’t pay your bills.

People were shorted in the process. That’s how it works.

A radio host from Houston, Michael Berry, played audio from Trump’s vet line. It told callers to go to the website or press one. Press one, it says thanks and hangs up.

I haven’t called.

There you go assuming things not in evidence.

A number of us are business owners who run businesses with payrolls.

By the way, do you run a business with a payroll?

Perhaps liberals want New York and Canadian politicians in the white house. Conservatives want ted Cruz in the white house.

Trump has never filed personal bankruptcy. There is a difference between personal bankruptcy and corporate bankruptcy. But I guess you don’t care.

Do you care about the people who lost their jobs when Donald Trump chose bankruptcy for his corporation?

Who exactly were shorted? Do you have facts, or is this internet hearsay from DailyKoz and democratunderground?
