Trump Tower is falling apart
Given the economic hole that Donald Trump put America in with his corrupt mishandling of the pandemic, it’s been difficult even for legitimate landlords and tenants to remain afloat financially. It’s even harder if you’re a fraudster of a landlord with a building full of questionable tenants. This brings us to Donald Trump and Trump Tower.
It turns out Trump Tower in New York is, financially speaking, falling apart. The Washington Post has detailed how a number of its corporate tenants have completely fallen apart during the pandemic, raising questions about how they were able to acquire space in the building to begin with. For instance the company that made Ivanka Trump-branded shoes has fallen behind on its rent by more than a million dollars. No surprise there.
The Post says that Trump Tower is full of “imploding tenants, political backlash and a broader, pandemic-related slump.” That’s remarkable, considering that the pandemic-related slump in question was created by Donald Trump himself. As he’s been doing for his entire life, Trump has ineptly wrecked yet another one of his businesses.
