He doesn’t even pay his lawyers. I’m willing to bet he’s refused to pay a few hookers as well.
It’s amazing how he hit that level of scumbag where the default response is victim blaming, anytime there’s a story about him not paying it always ends up at “are you surprised? That’s what he does.”
That’s still wrong though? I hate how he gets such a free pass
I think it’s more schadenfreude than victim blaming - that and a dash of Leopards Eating My Face. Those type of comments are usually under such stories as MAGA lawyers lining up to handle his nonsense lawsuits in order to ride his coattails to fame and wealth, only to be abandoned when they fail to get results. Victim blaming would imply they’re actually victims instead of grifters stupidly working under another grifter.
I’ve always gotten, “well yeah, it’s smart not to pay, that’s why he’s a good businessman”
Funny that they equate “businessman” to “liar, cheat, thief”, yet continue to idolize businessmen like Musk.
When you have a society that idolizes the richest with little consideration to how they got there, eventually the only qualification or sign of competence required by that society is the size of your bank account.
He’s proven that he can’t be reasoned with and is effectively immune from accountability. At this point, casting blame upon him is essentially the same as blaming a natural disaster for the destruction it causes. If you get burned while playing with fire, would it be rational to blame the fire?
I also hate that that’s our reality. But I see people arguing that blaming Democrats for dropping the ball gives Trump and the Republican party a free pass to be shitty and this is my dilemma.
