Unpaid bills haunt Trump's Halloween rally in Albuquerque, leave campaign scrambling for venue

Former President Donald Trump had a hard time finding a spot for his Halloween rally in Albuquerque, New Mexico rally, as unpaid bills came back to haunt his campaign.

The Santa Fe New Mexican reported that the campaign’s original plans to use the Albuquerque Convention Center were dashed, due in part to an unpaid bill of nearly $445,000 from a 2019 rally.

“If you’re not going to pay your bills, we’re just not going to entertain you using city facilities, and that’s the way it should be,” Albuquerque mayor Tim Keller told the outlet.


Albuquerque is just one of many cities seeking to recoup unpaid fees from Trump's campaign stops over the last decade. Municipalities in Texas and Pennsylvania are still after more than $750,000, per an NBC News analysis shared earlier this month.

In Albuquerque, the convention center Trump hoped to use was undergoing planned maintenance. When the former president came calling, city officials weren't going out of their way to help Trump secure a second location.

“With anyone who wants to use any [city-owned] facility … you can’t have money owed to the city,” the city's mayor said. “For us to consider the fact that we’re half a million dollars short is something we would do for any candidate or anyone who wants to rent the convention center in general.”

The Thursday rally, just five days ahead of an election widely expected to come down to 7 swing states, confused many. Trump lost New Mexico by nearly 11 points in 2020.



The rally was finally held at a privately owned hanger at the airport. He's sure to even stiff THAT sucker.

    What's amazing is people are still falling for that "great businessman" bullshit. He's a two-bit con artist. Always has been.

    And you need to actually understand "campaign" law. Because if you accuse him, then a lot of people go down.

    Look, Bill. We already know that our electoral politics is nothing but an entertainment to you. You've never been serious about this election and its consequences. The only thing that seems to matter to you is how much laughing like a lunatic you are going to get to do. You don't actually care or give a flyingfuck about any of it. You just want to get your jollies mocking those who do treat all this seriously. That's all that matters to you. You're happy to let everything go to shit just so that you can laugh at everyone's reactions to it.

    We' know this about you, Bill. You really don't need to keep bringing it up to remind us. It's impossible to forget how little the future of our country means to you.

    You are a disgusting and despicable excuse for an American citizen, Bill. You are exactly the type of MAGA Hat Trump supporter that our side has been aptly calling "garbage". Because that simply is what you have seen fit to be to our centuries-old system of democratic government.

    And come to think about it, now that you've cast your vote for Trump, you are even garbage to him now! You've served your purpose to him. You are the soiled wrapper that his Big Mac came in. So we aren't alone in characterizing you as such.

    Elon Musk's PAC Fired and Abandoned Canvassers in Michigan Who Voiced Concerns: Report

    Canvassers for Elon Musk's America PAC say that they were flown to Michigan and told they had to meet unattainable quotas or risk paying for their own accommodations and travel home. Then they were unceremoniously fired after some of them spoke to the press.

    The workers - many of whom are Black - told Wired that Blitz Canvassing, a subcontractor for Musk's PAC, had them sign non-disclosure agreements and transported them to Michigan neighborhoods in the back of a U-Haul without seats or seatbelts. After Wired ran an initial story about their working conditions, the magazine reported that the subcontractor fired more than a dozen canvassers, leaving some without full compensation or transportation home.

    One door-knocker told the magazine they did not know what they were signing up for. "I knew nothing of the job, or much of the job description, other than going door to door and asking the voters who are they voting for," the unidentified worker said. "Then, after I signed over an NDA, is when I found out we are for Republicans and with Trump."

    The worker also said they were not aware of the billionaire's involvement until they "overheard my supervisor and a few others mention Elon Musk."

    According to Wired, Trump's campaign is relying on Musk and his PAC to lead its door-to-door efforts in the battleground state, but it appears that the X owner's operation is slapdash at best. Canvassers said they were initially taking Ubers to neighborhoods where they spoke to voters, but later they were unsafely transported in the rear of a U-Haul van without seats or seatbelts. Organizers told the canvassers to use a glitchy app to record their progress, even though the app is known for inaccurately flagging fake door knocks.

    "Our subcontractors never should have driven their canvassers in a U-Haul van and those involved were immediately reprimanded," Tim Pollard of Blitz Canvassing told Wired.

    More than a dozen workers were fired after the magazine's story on the canvassing mishaps broke, Wired reported, leaving some in Michigan without their full pay or transportation home. According to emails obtained by the publication, canvassers were promised $2,000 per week in compensation and a return plane ticket. They were also told they would earn $1.50 per door knocked, text messages showed, and that rate would increase to $2 per door if they reached more than 1,000 doors per week - an unachievable number.

    "So. pb's both pig-ignorant AND disgusting." -Hate

    Oh there are other negative attributes that you consist of, Bill. Don't worry. Those aren't he only two.


  10. by HatetheSwamp on November 4, 2024 7:25 am

    po,

    Why not start a thread with your list and invite t'other woke Swampcultists to add to it.

    That'd be a hoot!

    I'm not going to intentionally feed your demented Masochism, Bill. I conveyed my thoughts, and you can simply dwell upon them.


  12. by HatetheSwamp on November 4, 2024 8:07 am

    So, between Donna and you, I'm a masochistic beta male. Merry Christmas to you, too.


  13. by Ponderer on November 4, 2024 10:59 am

    Oh, please don't limit yourself on our account, Bill. You are so many other things too.

    And Trump will only put "The Best People" in charge of our economy.....

    The best people won't even take Trump's calls - much less work for him.
