    Clinton did better than John Glenn though. It took him 23 years to pay off $3 million.

    Back in 1984, Sen. John Glenn ran for president, but he didn't finish paying off his presidential campaign debt until 2007.

    Will he be paying the other vendors he's stiffed for decades too?

    You're right.

    They just expect to get things for free in the first place.

    He should've used Rocket Mortgage.

    Like who?

    Give me an example of a vendor he "stiffed".

    The examples we've seen previously -- like the piano guy -- settled with him. They have to current claim against him.

    Trump offered him the choice to take a reduced payment, risk getting nothing/pennies on the dollar if they declared bankruptcy, or wait, and hope finances recovered, which would allow him to be paid in full.

    He chose the reduced payment. He wasn't stiffed, and Trump now owes him nothing.

    If you agree to a reduced payment, you weren't stiffed.

    You worked it out. You're owed nothing.

    I'm sure you'd have that mindset if you'd done $10,000 worth of work for somebody and got pennies on the dollar.

    Amazing how a small businessman can defend fellow small businessmen getting screwed by ... well, anybody.

    Yet another Trump defense boils down to "coerced consent still counts."

    The hotel he sold the Pianos too was on the verge of bankruptcy.

    The piano guy was lucky. Six Flags didn't make such an offer to me. They just stiffed me, and claimed the guy who arranged for me to do work for them wasn't authorized to do so.

    Piano guy could have gotten nothing.

    Trump is so rich, why is he stiffing his backers?
