    Default Trump Is on the Verge of Losing Everything

    Trump is not only losing his job but quite possibly everything else.

    One crisis, though the most opaque, concerns Trump’s business. Many of his sources of income are drying up, either owing to the coronavirus pandemic or, more often, his toxic public image. The Washington Post has toted up the setbacks facing the Trump Organization, which include cancellations of partnerships with New York City government, three banks, the PGA Championship, and a real-estate firm that handled many of his leasing agreements. Meanwhile, he faces the closure of many of his hotels. And he is staring down two defamation lawsuits. Oh, and Trump has to repay, over the next four years, more than $300 million in outstanding loans he personally guaranteed.


    One Republican who speaks to Trump hopefully suggested Trump can make money holding more rallies: “If you can [get] 30,000 people (rubes) to show up and you charge them $5, that’s real money,” he told the Post two months ago. Actually, a $150,000 gross payout, before deducting the costs of renting a venue, staff, security, and travel, is probably a negligible — or even negative — profit, not “real money,” and the fact it’s being considered reveals a certain desperation.

    trump "needs" $50 million or so to buy a new private jet. he needs millions more to pay past due rent. he needs maybe a billion dollars within the next year to service his debts.

    Let's say he makes $100k every night for the next years, that is $36.5 million, not enough to keep him afloat. trump is dying the death of all ponzi schemes.

    do you deny since most of his only way of making dough before he ran for president was licensing his name on resorts and hotels, and now most of the free world hates this chickenshit punk, that it has almost all dried up? the PGA is cutting him out of the loop because he is so hated by most people...the only friends he has left are in saudi arabia and russia and china.

    Ever thought you might currently be not quite the shilling, kid? Too many drugs and too much loony rhetoric are a very dicey mixture for an unbalanced peasant, you know.

    Trump is toxic. In a capitalist system people like him get ruined by drying up his revenue source.
