It would be a bit of work. I remember a New York Times article from maybe 2016 about Trump's Atlantic City failures. It had a lot about the contractors who had been stiffed by Trump. I think there were some interviews of the victims but I'm not sure. The thing that got my attention at the time was Trump's seat of the pants approach to project management which resulted in huge cost overruns. The contractors paid that price. The article made clear to me that Trump had no understanding of how to run a big project. He only knew how to get bailed out.

That's true. I had a friend who worked for the city of New York and he said that contractors were constantly reporting on Trump for his refusing to pay the balance on what they were owed when the job was done. That's why he had to start using Russian immigrant labor.
