The unidentified lawyer, from a law firm that worked for Trump in the 1990s, visited the former president at Trump Tower after he refused to pay, according to The Guardian.
“Trump made some apologetic noises. Then he said: ‘I’m not going to pay your bill. I’m going to give you something more valuable,’” Enrich wrote, per The Guardian. The former president then “rummaged around in a filing cabinet” and pulled out a deed to a horse supposedly worth $5 million.
“Once he regained the capacity for speech,” the lawyer reportedly said, “This isn’t the 1800s. You can’t pay me with a horse.” -The Hill.com
I had to look this up because I refused to believe it wasn’t satire and, no. This is actually a thing he did in the 90s. Good grief.
June/July/August 2022 Empties! Continuing my quest to use up my huge hoard of beauty supplies and hotel toiletries! (I got really behind on posting these…) Bath & Body Works Strawberry Pound Cake PocketBac (I use a ton of hand sanitizer now so finally emptied one), Beekman 1802 Fresh Air lotion (nice, simple), Omni Hotels & Resorts Ginseng body lotion (again, nice, simple), L'Oreal Feria conditioner (I have dozens of these tubes, amazed I emptied one), and Neutrogena Hydro Boost City Shield facial gel mist (really liked this, it definitely helped my skin look better when I remembered to use it regularly; would buy again). #JuneEmpties #JulyEmpties #AugustEmpties #june2022 #july2022 #august2022 #empties #DrugstoreBeauty #HotelToiletries #StashBusting #samplesize #travelsize #MakeupHoard #CheapAssChic #bathandbodyworks #pocketbac #strawberrypoundcake #beekman1802 #FreshAirLotion #loreal #feria #conditioner #omnihotel #ginsengbodylotion #neutrogena #cityshield #hydroboost #facialgelmist https://www.instagram.com/p/CiS3eakrYjJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
The 3.8 million facing eviction is the tip of the iceberg. The Census Bureau also estimated that 8.5 million tenants are behind on their rent as the month of August comes to a close.
Millions of people are behind on rent and facing eviction in part because of the soaring rent prices. In June of this year, median rents in the U.S. topped a staggering $2,000 per month — the highest ever recorded.
