      I see jobs small and large where the main contractor is bidding lower than cost. That means some contractors below him are not going to get paid, and that's in the advance plan. Part of business is to watch out for that. And be prepared to remove the rugs. OR turn on the flood gates, crack the pipes, and pull the water hose out and let it rip.

    So I just found this youtube video, and interestingly, last night I was asking my mom for more detail about the time Trump didn't pay his bill at my mom's company.
    In 1990 in Manhattan, just after my mom began working at a printing company as the lead financial comptroller, my mom processed a $350k-$375k project for the Taj Mahal casino which was one of their biggest accounts at that time. Her company had never conducted business with Trump before, and the whole area was excited about possibilities of the Taj Mahal.
    Well, about a month after delivering Trump's print order, the owner of her company heard through the grapevine that the Taj Mahal was tanking and there was talk bills may not be paid. Trump hadn't yet paid his bill, so the owner quickly submitted the appropriate paperwork to wherever it's responsible (the bank?) so the company could get paid before the Taj Mahal shop closed for good.
    2 - 3 months later, they finally got their money (minus late fees, so in other words: a free loan). But they were just extremely relieved they got paid; otherwise, the company may not have survived. Unfortunately, other businesses weren't so lucky, like contractors.
    So I don't understand how Trump can claim he supports business. His track record shows otherwise.
