It takes a lot of money to run for national office. Advertising, logistics, etc. Trump has stiffed a lot of communities and not paid his bills. Which is the reason he resorts to outdoor events. These venues want money up front. In addition, if the numbers look e right, the Harris campaign can share the wealth with down ballot candidates.
Down ballot is key. The true power in this country is the state houses. They make the maps, the laws at the local level, and can make or break a country.
A lot of the bullshit we are dealing with right now are the direct result of the 2010 election cycle. The Republicans gerrymandered a fuck ton of states and it’s going to take quite a few cycles to fix it. People are now paying attention to what they are doing, so that helps immensely, but they need to understand that one election isn’t going to do it.
Exactly. Why hasn’t some investigative reporter tracked them all down and let everyone know how much he has effectively stolen from these venues? As long as we only hear about it one at a time, nobody will care.

I wonder why it isn’t a bigger story that the campaign is stiffing venues like this
Did you not pay attention to the news of this in 2016 & 2020?
There were nearly weekly reports of another person or org coming forward about stiffed bills.
