Donald Trump has spent essentially his entire life refusing to pay the people who work for him. Throughout his years in real estate, contractors realized angrily that he’d exploit even the tiniest loophole to avoid paying an invoice. Trump is open and honest about this, saying:
“Let’s say that they do a job that’s not good, or a job that they didn’t finish, or a job that was way late. I’ll deduct from their contract, absolutely.” And, of course, it’s Trump who decides that the job is “not good”.
