Hey Donnie-Boy, one way to avoid crushing debt service is to quit borrowing money.
Too dumb to think of that, I guess.

He's still grifting because HE NEEDS THE MONEY!
His wealth has been no more than an illusion for at least 25 years.

His business is leveraged to his fake hairline.
He's soliciting funds under the guise of political donations to cover the service on his massive borrowing while revenues have plummeted.
Surely you know that his whole enterprise has always been floating on borrowed money.

Because his idiot cult was not mentioned by me.
You asked why I referred to "borrowing". You said he's asking for donations.
I was explaining why he's asking for donations. You somehow interpreted that as this new money being borrowed.
If you knew about his massive debt load, why the initial question?

You can't send a $3,300 campaign contribution to Der Trumpenfurer, and your megachurch, and then blame your financial woes on Biden's inflation. It doesn't work that way.
