“I won’t pay the bill for this stupid company,” he said. “I won’t pay the bill, and then we’ll have a story that Trump didn’t pay the bill to a contractor.”
If you don’t want a reputation for screwing over contractors then you should pay your damn contractors. But we all know Trump would’ve just made up a reason to stiff them even if everything went smoothly.
But I do find it amusing that he’s this close to figuring out why his mic didn’t work in the first place. Good contractors have options and won’t work for a known dead beat. So all he can get are incompetent fools.
If there’s no show at all, or it’s completely ruined, then you have them cancel the bill. You don’t just refuse to pay and stop picking up the phone. That’s childish and we know he doesn’t pay bills even when he gets everything he asked for, just more gaslighting.
Plus when I hire someone for a price and they do a meh but ok job, i pay them and never hire them again. That’s how the free market works, at least in theory. He doesn’t see we can’t just “not pay our bill” when my internet goes down for a few hours. Normal people get fucked by that, he doesn’t know what normal is. Weird they don’t even realize they’re saying the quiet part out loud.
“free market” should be “fair market” but the free means corporations are free to move labor to another country but not let the actual labor freely move.
No, no - “free market” means I don’t have to pay, because it’s free.
He never pays ANY of his bills. How many cities have ended up getting stuck with unpaid bills for his stupid fucking circlejerk events?
This is a common tactic the rich use all the time. They even hire people to contest valid charges because it often works. They are literally why we can’t have nice things. “So much winning” but they have to cheat and lie about everything.
It’s disproportionately the rich who refund uber eats meals that were perfectly fine and shit like that.
It happens on business all the time as well. Huge company hires small company to outsource whatever, with the promise of more work if this project goes well, then they end up being a nightmare to work for, with impossible deadlines and constantly changing requirements.
Small company ends up underwater on the project and the guy that outsourced it gets a promotion for getting it done under budget.

I have no idea why companies ever accepted net 30, let alone to the extent that it has become a sort of standard. I’d have the business owner as the guarantor at a minimum. Better yet, if they’re good for the payment, they can get a bank loan.
The whole reason he does outdoor rallies is because he stiffed all the indoor facilities in his last election run.
big energy fascist would have been screaming into a bullhorn. you’re losing it donny.

Inb4 hang mic pence
“Failed mic.”
“Mic the loser” they call him.
“mutin’mic”
Yea, easy conspiracy. He can’t speak for long periods of time, so manufacture sound issues.
I like mics that didn’t fail.
20 minutes to find a second mic? Or move the connection to a different input.
Sounds about right for the people Trump hires.
I mean seeing how he has probably pissed off just about every theater kid living by now it’s just deserts. Nobody is racing down from the booth with a lav for this guy.
The sound tech probably didn’t have it on.
Sometimes you wind up working gigs you wouldn’t want to. Easy to make mistakes.
Or you haven’t been paid…
Not getting paid is rather demotivating, yes.
“Mistakes” happen when you lack motivation…
Reminds me of a gig I had in a studio where the lead singer was a real jerk to everyone in the studio and to his band-mates, he kept berating everyone in the band, telling them to play better, and when it was his turn to record vocals, I pitch shifted his monitor a half note :-) Watching him squirm in the vocal-booth trying to hit a note was priceless.
That.
that’s just beautiful. Kind of evil. but beautiful.
Billy Corgan never recovered from that one.
Despite all my rage, I’m still just a rat in a cage.
Probably hard to find a good sound guy that’ll work for free.
I’m sure if he asked a local evangelical church, they’d loan up their sound guys. You know. Gotta help the antichrist out.
Comrade Mic Guy
“Only the best”
This time his minders had an excuse prepared.
Weirdly plausible. It only works though if they did this to him on purpose to keep everyone from hearing him speak.
Didn’t want to do another impromptu concert?
Aaaaaaaaveeeee Mariiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
So the guy who thinks he and he alone can fix the world, and that foreign leaders admire and fear him cannot (1) hire a campaign competent with the simplest contingencies, (2) cannot stick through any interview that asks him about things he did, let alone a hostile interview, (3) cannot find and maintain staffers nor cabinet members who won’t betray him for being ignorant and unhinged.
I guess these are those “the best people” that we’ve heard mentioned so many times.
He ever said he wanted to fix anything? I thought he just wanted to be in power so he can grab more pussy.
Hope he hated it.
He didn’t play music this time?
“and now…racist shitbag music.”
Kid rock covers Ave Maria?
“I’ll haaave a beer-a”
Now he’s got a reason not to pay for the event.
Finally, after nearly 20 minutes, an aide brought Trump a replacement microphone that worked.
“I won’t pay the bill for this stupid company,” he said. “I won’t pay the bill, and then we’ll have a story that Trump didn’t pay the bill to a contractor.”
Might be the only truthful thing trump said during the event
He doesn’t need more reasons past being a greedy shit bag
Then this dipshit said he wasn’t paying the bill, I mean tell me something we don’t already know…
He can make much more choices resulting in shit of epic proportions.
Like he would have anyway
“I won’t pay the bill for this stupid company,” he said. “I won’t pay the bill, and then we’ll have a story that Trump didn’t pay the bill to a contractor.”
He already wasn’t gonna pay.
Guy probably didn’t even pay for the AC at that event where they were passing out from the heat.
This was my thought when I saw the clip originally
His nickname should be “Crime”.
That story has been printed weekly since 1995. Who’s he kidding?
He probably hasn’t been paying all along and is now down to the bottom rung of contractors.
That is correct.
Oh, that’s insightful. I bet you’re right. Would certainly explain some events.
Lol I thought you made that quote up, so I had to check the article. He actually said that lol.
I too want to give my business to Trump Media And TECHNOLOGY company. Only the best
