I may live in NJ, but that gives me a unique perspective on the Trump business model. A friend of mine had a contract to paint at the Trump Taj Mahal. He finished ahead of schedule and the general contractor signed off that the work was completed on time and met all of the contract requirements. He received a check 3 months later for exactly 50% of what he was owed. He complained and was told his work was substandard. His only recourse was to sue, but the legal fees were going to eat up so much of the remaining 50%, plus the time to fight it meant he would be in court and not painting. He ended up accepting the payment.

There are dozens of similar stories about his business practices - we NJ people are so used to hearing his bluster and then watching him hide behind multiple bankruptcies to avoid his obligations. I will sit back and watch the rest of the country get a dose of his double talk.
