Okay, now at least you've provided some examples, so we have something specific to discuss. But I'm still trying to understand how you're defining "cheating." Trump's casino companies went through Chapter 11 bankruptcy. That's true. Creditors lost money and some contractors didn't receive everything they were owed. That's certainly fair game for criticizing Trump's business record. But bankruptcy isn't "cheating." Chapter 11 is a legal process specifically designed to allow a company to restructure debts it can't pay. Creditors frequently accept less than the original amount owed. You may not like that system, but thousands of American companies have used it. The same applies to disputed contractor bills. If Trump contracted for $500,000 worth of work, received the work, had the money and simply refused to pay because he knew the little guy couldn't fight him, I'd certainly call that unethical. If there was intentional deception involved, then show me that and I'll call it cheating. But simply saying "contractors weren't paid in full" doesn't tell us why. Was the bill disputed? Was the work disputed? Was it part of a bankruptcy? Was there a settlement? Was there a court judgment finding fraud? Those details matter. And the article you posted isn't exactly neutral reporting. It's a union advocacy piece using phrases like "rape-and-pillage" and "made out like a bandit." Fine, but rhetoric isn't evidence of fraud. So we've gone from your original claim that Trump has spent his entire life "cheating" to examples of corporate bankruptcies, creditors taking losses and business/payment disputes. You can absolutely argue those things make Trump a ruthless businessman or that you don't like the way he conducted business. That's you're opinion. But if your claim is that he was actually CHEATING people, then identify the specific deception or fraud. A business failure, bankruptcy or disputed bill isn't automatically cheating.
