    Yeah, what did people expect from the guy who has all of his books cooked, won’t let you see his twx records, somehow bankrupted a casino (more than one?), the guy who, untill very recently, managed to do financially worse under his own investment direction than if he’d just taken the money his dad gave him and put it in the era equivalent of an index fund… who also has an established track record of not paying contractors, who once called himself the ‘King of Debt’?

    Fucking FOX NEWS is calling him out on that last one lately, now that its far, faaar too late.

    The question now is what happens when he fails to pay. will they strike or will we just forget about it all? I have a feeling it will be the latter.

    If the air controllers go on strike you can just send in the national guard. I don’t get why anyone is worried.
