djt is notorious for stiffing and/or bullying contractors.
When he bought the old Post Office in DC to become a hotel, Jose Andres was to have the signature restaurant there. He back out after djt’s “immigrant comments.” djt threatened to sue, Andres said, “bring it.” The bully backed down!

On Dec. 8, 2015, Jeffrey Epstein offers a NY Times reporter photos of Donald Trump and "girls in bikinis in my kitchen." Epstein tells the reporter that he "gave" Trump his "20 year old girlfriend...after two years."

When people looked into these type of rumors the Times smugly criticized them.

Blanche didn’t ask Maxwell a single question about any of these emails. Then he moved her to Club Fed where she is served individual meals and has a puppy and numerous other special privileges while she prepares her clemency petition. WHY?

Incredibly, there's been no real discussion of the positions on immigration that Abigail Spanberger took en route to her blowout victory. So I took a look. What I found challenges a lot of pundit narratives. It's all in this piece and thread:
This has gotten lost: Abigail Spanberger won big after vowing to RESCIND Glenn Youngkin's executive order directing local cooperation with ICE and voting AGAINST the anti-immigrant Laken Riley Act. Yet she gained bigly with working class.

New piece laying this out:

Unlike the Democratic and progressive candidates under 35, the millennial and Gen Z Republican candidates vie more for acceptance and approval from Trump and his MAGA allies rather than challenging the status quo.
