NY Times: Trump empire massively in debt, especially to China
A New York Times investigation reveals massive debt owed by the Trump empire, especially to China, a country he continues to degrade.
Click here for reuse options!…companies he owns have at least $650 million in debt — twice the amount that can be gleaned from public filings he has made as part of his bid for the White House. The Times’s inquiry also found that Mr. Trump’s fortunes depend deeply on a wide array of financial backers, including one he has cited in attacks during his campaign.
For example, an office building on Avenue of the Americas in Manhattan, of which Mr. Trump is part owner, carries a $950 million loan. Among the lenders: the Bank of China, one of the largest banks in a country that Mr. Trump has railed against as an economic foe of the United States, and Goldman Sachs, a financial institution he has said controls Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee, after it paid her $675,000 in speaking fees…
Beyond finding that companies owned by Mr. Trump had debts of at least $650 million, The Times discovered that a substantial portion of his wealth is tied up in three passive partnerships that owe an additional $2 billion to a string of lenders, including those that hold the loan on the Avenue of the Americas building. If those loans were to go into default, Mr. Trump might not be held personally liable, but the value of his investments would sink.

Well he says that Hillary was “influenced” by giving speeches for $100,000’s, I wonder how much influence $650 million buys?

$650M in debt is a big indicator of irresponsibility and bad decision making. Who wants this kind of person as president? **crickets**

No wonder he’s obsessed with China.

So, China owns our Republican Presidential Candidate AND He is close Buddies with Russia’s Putin. WOW !!!! Now he just needs to come out of the Closet.

Another reason Trump will not release his tax records.
In addition to owing China, Russia also holds yuuuuge debts, and they do expect payment, with dividends.
American banks have not been willing to fund Trump, which says a lot about his business acumen and trustworthiness.

He is a Billionaire. At least he owes that much.
granpa.usthai August 21st, 2016 at 23:18
trump, the gop candidate that refuses to release his CROOKED TAX RETURNS has zero credibility which equates to being untrustworthy which equates to being dishonest which equates to being a CROOK.

Donald (Conman) Trump (R) promises so much, but delivers so little. This is why Con Don is Putin’s Poodle, so don’t vote for anyone with an (R) by their name on the ballot because you will never know for sure if it is a Republican of a Russian supporter. Thanks for coming to the November Election republicans and Donald (Conman) Trump, now we have some lovely parting gifts on your way back to your republican stronghold in LOSERVILLE!
