Trump has been sued 1600 times for non-payment of contractors, employees, tradesmen, banks and state and local governments?
But he STILL ISN'T in JAIL!...Is the system rigged so the rich don't have to pay much and are NEVER punished???

the system in the US [its really too chaotic to be a system,
it's a feeding frenzy of greed,]
is rigged even beyond what the journalists' exposes have revealed over the decades, starting w/ the Muckrakers around 1900.

it's a pattern throughout the history of the plutocratic USA :

"Madoff repeatedly changed his story,
he contradicted himself at every turn,
and written records flatly disproved many of his assertions,
had anyone bothered to check.
Worst of all, the SEC knew he was lying and
was one phone call away from catching him..."

that was abt 5 yrs before madoff was finally busted, after he brazenly stole $billions that were never restored to his victims.

According to USA Today Trump has been involved in about 3,500 legal actions, 1,900 where he or his companies were a plaintiff and about 1,300 in which he was the defendant. That's a record for Presidential candidates. In a nation run by lawyers I suppose we shouldn't be surprised.

Yes, the system is rigged- in favor of capitalists. That doesn't mean he's broken any laws. It means the laws are lax in holding big business owners to some standard of ethical behavior.

Yes, it is, In PR China, Donald would have gotten the bullet by now.

Do you actually think Trump sits down at the end of the day and writes out checks to his contractors, etc? He has people who are supposed to do that.
