By John Q. Hosedrinker It’s about time that the Trump campaign is being required to pay an upfront deposit of $145,000 before their Thursday event in Tucson. Frankly, it’s surprising that anyone would extend credit to a known bill dodger like Trump. Requiring a substantial security deposit seems like the only logical option when dealing with someone who has a long history of refusing to pay what they owe.
As a resident of Tucson, I can’t help but feel relieved that measures are being taken to ensure that the Trump campaign fulfills their financial obligations. After all, he still owes us money from his last rally, and we can’t afford to be taken advantage of again.
The fact that Trump has left unpaid bills in two dozen cities across the country speaks volumes about his character and business practices. It’s refreshing to see Tucson taking a stand and demanding payment upfront. It’s only fair that someone with such a tarnished reputation when it comes to finances should be required to prove that they can meet their obligations.
It’s clear that Trump’s track record of non-payment precedes him, and it’s high time that venues and vendors protect themselves by implementing strict payment terms. Requiring 100% upfront payment before any services are rendered seems like a reasonable and prudent course of action when dealing with someone as unreliable as Trump.
Trump’s tendency to leave municipalities and contractors high and dry while still expecting to use their services is unethical and shows a complete lack of respect for the hardworking people he deals with. It’s heartening to see cities like Tucson standing up to his bullying tactics and insisting on fair treatment.
In the end, it’s important to hold individuals like Trump accountable for their actions. Requiring upfront payment is not only a smart business move but also a way to ensure that those who have been wronged in the past are protected from further financial harm. Tucson’s decision to demand a deposit from the Trump campaign is a step in the right direction, and hopefully, more cities will follow suit in the future. Requiring the Trump campaign to pay an upfront deposit of $145,000 before their Thursday event in Tucson is a significant and necessary step. Given Trump’s long-standing habit of failing to pay his bills, it’s only fair and wise for venues and vendors to protect themselves by demanding payment upfront. It’s heartening to see Tucson taking a stand and refusing to be taken advantage of, especially since he still owes the city money from his previous rally.
The fact that Trump has a history of leaving cities across the country with unpaid bills is a testament to his lack of financial responsibility and integrity. Requiring 100% upfront payment from him should be the standard, considering his reputation for dodging financial obligations. It’s encouraging to see businesses and municipalities standing up to his unethical practices and ensuring that they are not left empty-handed.
By insisting on upfront payment, Tucson is sending a strong message that individuals like Trump cannot continue to disregard their financial commitments without consequences. It’s essential to hold such individuals accountable for their actions and protect those who have been wronged in the past. Requiring a substantial security deposit is a smart business move and a necessary precaution when dealing with someone as unreliable and dishonest as Trump.
In the end, demanding upfront payment from the Trump campaign is not just about money; it’s about fairness, integrity, and respect. Tucson’s decision to require a deposit is a commendable one, and hopefully, it sets a precedent for other cities to follow suit. It’s time for venues and vendors to prioritize their financial well-being and demand the same level of accountability from all individuals, regardless of their status or reputation.
