By Jarrett Renshaw, Aram Roston, Steve Holland and Jeff Mason

Trump is still scamming his supporters, of course:

“The fine print indicates that more than half of the money raised would go to paying down the campaign’s debts.”

Exclusive: Tired of Trump, Deutsche Bank games ways to sever ties with the president - sources

Deutsche Bank AG is looking for ways to end its relationship with President Donald Trump after the U.S. elections, as it tires of the negative publicity stemming from the ties, according to three senior bank officials with direct knowledge of the matter.

Yet another reason Trump is desperate to stay in office regardless of how U.S. citizens actually vote:

“What happens next for the bank rests on the outcome of Tuesday’s elections, according to the three bank officials. If the Republican president loses, and Democrats take control of the White House and Congress, senior Deutsche Bank executives believe ... they will also have more freedom to deal with the loans and end their relationship with Trump ... If Trump is not in office, Deutsche Bank executives feel that it would be easier for them to demand repayment, foreclose if he is not able to pay it off or refinance, or try to sell the loans, according to two of the three bank officials. ...

“If Trump wins a second term, Deutsche Bank executives feel their options would be fewer, the three bank officials said. The bank wouldn’t want the negative publicity inherent with seizing assets from a sitting president and would likely extend the loans until he is out of office, two of the bank officials said.”

DC mayor: Trump's July 4 celebration 'depleted' security fund

President Trump’s “Salute to America” celebration on the Fourth of July cost the District of Columbia government $1.7 million, bankrupting the city's fund to protect the capital from terrorist threats and provide security at rallies and

Trump’s 2017 inauguration cost the District of Columbia $27.3 million. 2½ years later, his administration still owes D.C. $7.3 million. So naturally the Narcissist-in-Chief thought it would be an excellent idea to hold an over-the-top self-aggrandizing Independence Day “Salute to America” in D.C., complete with military jets and tanks, which cost at least “six times as much as in years past,” and likely more “as the city continues to tally expenses.”

As a result of the debts that D.C. has incurred due to Trump’s egotism, the city estimates that its Emergency Planning and Security Fund “will be depleted before the end of FY2019, leaving overages of over $6 million.”

[CALLED IT]

D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has formally requested that Trump reimburse these funds, as the federal government is legally required to do:

“It is critical that the EPSF is fully reimbursed for these funds to ensure the District can uphold proper security and support during the remainder of the fiscal year without incurring a deficit for federal activities. As we continue to gather estimates for the next Inauguration, we ask for your help with ensuring the residents of the District of Columbia are not asked to cover millions of dollars of federal expenses and are able to maintain our high standards of protection for federal events.”

The White House’s response expressed its usual touching concern for people who aren’t Donald Trump:

“President Trump led our Nation in a great Salute to America.”

Michael Cohen sues Trump Organization for millions in legal fees

Michael Cohen sued the Trump Organization in New York Supreme Court on Thursday for millions of dollars in legal fees and costs, claiming the company must pay him for “matters arising” from his work for the company -- including “multiple congressional hearings” and costs related to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.

“The Trump Organization agreed to indemnify me for legal fees and costs incurred in connection with my employment there. When it was publicly reported that I might be cooperating with prosecutors, the Trump Organization breached its agreement and stopped paying fees and costs. My counsel contacted the Trump Organization and asked them to fulfill their obligations to me. They did not respond, so we filed this lawsuit.”

Trump’s Personal Driver for 25 Years Sues for Unpaid Overtime

Donald Trump’s personal driver for more than 25 years says the billionaire real estate developer didn’t pay him overtime and raised his salary twice in 15 years, clawing back the second raise by cutting off his health benefits.

Noel Cintron is suing the Trump Organization for about 3,300 hours of overtime that he says he worked in the past six years.

“Cintron says he was required to be on duty for Trump starting at 7 a.m. each day until whenever Trump, his family or business associates no longer required his services. He worked as long as 55 hours per week... ”

Reminder: Deadbeat Donald refused to pay $32,535.87 owed to a paint supplier who worked on his Trump National Doral Miami golf resort, because he “already paid enough.” The supplier had to sue, and the court ordered payment under penalty of foreclosure. Deadbeat Donald appealed, but lost again and ultimately had to pay over $300,000.

Reminder: Deadbeat Donald also allegedly bilked contractors working on the Trump International Hotel out of over $5 million. They sued, and he settled.

Reminder: Deadbeat Donald claims he is worth “in excess of TEN BILLION DOLLARS.”
