As former President Trump tours through his key support areas across the US, he faces the one thing, he never wants to face. Demands to 'Pay Up Front' and 'Pay prior Owed Bills'.
Trump is notorious for not just grifting those who support him the most, by telling them to send him money for one purpose and then taking it personally, but he also is notorious for sticking his most ardent supporters with the Bills and treating them no better than the lawyers who provide service to him and then cannot get paid.
So on these campaign swings Trump is expected to be confronted by city after city and facility after facility and the police, fireman and other workers who provided service that they refused to pay the last time.

Pennsylvania town wants Trump to pay in advance of rally after his campaign stiffed them in 2018
- Trump's previous presidential campaigns still haven't repaid several of the cities he held rallies in.
- The mayor of Erie, Pennsylvania, wants the Trump campaign to pay the city for service before his rally on Saturday.
- Trump's campaign has more than enough cash on hand — $22.5 million — to remedy the request.
...The mayor of a Pennsylvania city is pushing for former President Donald Trump's campaign to pay up before he and his campaign descend on it Saturday for a planned rally.
According to a recent report from the Erie Times-News, Erie Mayor Joe Schember wants to be reimbursed for any fees related to the upcoming rally ahead of time, after Trump's campaign failed to repay the city more than $35,000 following a campaign event in 2018....
... his administration pushed Trump's team to reimburse $35,129 to the city for overtime pay for city workers who assisted with the event...., the city didn't have any leverage in 2018 to force the campaign to repay the debt.
Nearly five years later, Schember appears to have learned his lesson.
"We're going to see whether we can get some payment from them in advance this time," he told the Erie Times-News. "It's important to do this because we're talking about taxpayer money being used to help make his visit more safe."
