Someone who constantly stiffs workers and suppliers and goes bankrupt 6 times really knows how NOT to pay his bills.

Gold toilets, overdue bills. That's Trump.

He relates? He knows fuck-all about what these people are going through! He has no idea what it is like to depend upon a paycheck for your basic needs. I can't even think straight right now. I am just spitting mad.
