Those are just some of the highlights. Trump has been in 4,095 lawsuits.

He is evidence of a colossal failure of a system.

The simple fix for the lawsuits failure is to have whoever loses pay the winner's attorney's fees, like most sane first world countries.

All of the "successful" aka settled lawsuits he has are just ones he was able to outlast whoever was suing him by delaying as long as possible so the plaintiff can't afford to keep it up.

It's pretty common for the loser to pay the winner's legal fees in the USA too. But the plaintiff needs to be able to hang in there until the suit is settled.

Don't let him have one more; he's trying to roll it over back to -4096 so he can clip away from the courthouse any time sentencing starts in one of his trials

Business failures are fine.

Stiffing contractors is not.

Many of the business failures were systematically manipulative too. He frequently leverages the bankruptcy process to walk with profits and cut losses.

Imagine not looking for a loophole and trying to lead a nation into finding a way to thrive under the rules we have.
