People continue to talk about all the lenders, investors, and contractors Trump has stiffed in his lifetime. Some articles, including those from Forbes and NY Times, suggest Trump has cheated these people out of billions of dollars, which would make his one to three billion in net worth solely the result of having taken advantage of all these people.
And Trump continues…. His rally in Wisconsin tonight will be his 73rd since he took office. As an example, in March and April of 2018 Trump help two rallies, one to Pennsylvania and one to Wisconsin. His flights to those rallies cost the American taxpayer $142,338 for every hour Air Force One is in the air. Assuming two hours each way to those States that comes to eight hours, at the cost of 1.14 million dollars. Trump’s campaign reimbursed the government $112,000 for those two flights. And this doesn’t even include the added Secret Service protection required or the money he’s cheated the cities out of for added police protection.
Also, according to Forbes, if Trump maintains the same pace he’s been on since he came into office, his golf visits by the end of his first term will have cost the taxpayers over 340 million dollars, just so he can play golf (badly) at his personal resorts.
If someone were to sit down and calculate all the times Trump has cheated the taxpayers on his golf visits and rallies, I have no doubt the price tag would be in excess of one to two billion dollars, which far exceeds the 158 million Trump has in campaign funds. (As of October 2019). |
