3500 lawsuits against trump..10's of thousands most likely not filed

Because those people and small businesses lacked the resources. If I was the DNC...id start running a 1-800 been screwed by trump hotline....advertise the number to call on prime time...trump would flip...DNC should do it NOW

I hope some of these people can get their voices heard, but the sleazeball is known for having everyone and their mother sign some sort of confidentiality clause.

Confidentiality clause is like a contract....if trump didn't keep his end up....not paying for agreed upon service...to me that makes invalid and I'm sure plenty of lawyers would pro bono services against trump...like crime stoppers...the hotline can give cover...trump has always threaten to sue..so let's watch him freak out...

I found this:

(You may want to correct your OP. He is involved in 3,500 lawsuits. 3,500 lawsuits were not brought against him. Still terrible, but posting factual information is important.)

as with the piano supplier story on twitter. agree to pay $100,000, get the pianos, then refuse to pay.

offer to settle for $70,000 because you know it will cost $25,000 and 3 years to sue and collect.

as donnie says, "it's called business" and "that makes me smart".
