I’m not saying this is true. But if it is true that she paid herself first and then left staff, vendors and other creditors holding an empty envelope, it is a reprehensible and dishonorable act in my opinion.

One wonders if she had not decided to run for President 6 years later (with campaign contributions anew) whether she’d have ever really cleared those debts.

From the article:

“Only as Fiorina began to publicly consider launching a presidential campaign in 2015 did she pay off her 2010 debts.................Three months later, Carly for President launched”

She behaves and talks like a sociopath. No surprise to me

I am not an expert, but after an election, a candidate only has so much time to raise money to pay-off personal debt. Other debts, I believe, do not have a time limits.

I know this is going to make me sound like a DUmmy Leftist, but I believe pretty much ALL CEO's would do this. I personally worked for three companies that filed Chapter 11. Our vendors got absolutely SCROOOOOD. Our employees, aside from salary and vacation benefits that were protected by the court, got SCROOOOD (I myself lost a huge bonus one year, which I had busted my tail to earn). Our landlords who held long-term leases on our buildings got SCROOOOOD. Despite this senior management still always got their golden parachutes. SOP for business in our age. And another bit of proof for my theory that MBA's are destroying the planet.
