He couldn't, people don't realize that McConnell is the true villain here. Even though Pelosi is incompetent but she's not as evil as he is. He is dead set on screwing NY and NJ or any help as long as he's in command.
Trump had to cooperate as he's appointed McConnell's wife as Secretary of Transportation. If the GOP keeps control of the senate after the runoff, expect Biden's tenure to get delayed by the confirmation hearings and any legislation will become a crap show. This is why I am against Biden winning, I rather see Trump finish and get some legislation passed. Now it's all gonna be a crap show due to gridlock government.

So enjoy the Biden victory people.
Mcconnell was always the power behind the throne, but trump could have put in him in his place if he wanted to
I would be absolutely critical of a Democrat. What you are forgetting is Trump WAS a Democrat when he did all this. It is hundreds of contractors if you look at the links, not just a few. I am from that area and I worked in AC casinos, we all know what an a** he was and how he F'd that city over, its' workers and contractors. Then hightailed it out leaving a mess.
He earned the hatred of him as a Democrat, so you can't play that card.
What card, I'm not gambling nor playing with you - it was a straight-up no-trick/gotcha question.
I do question the truthfulness of the links however, not saying that he may not of F'd anyone over.
What mess? That "x" amount of contractors didn't get paid and left when his AC business faltered?

Please "edumucate" me.
Trump, who once bragged that he was the “King of Debt,” owed $70 million to 253 contractors who worked on the Taj and who, in turn, hired thousands of workers.
Some firms sculpted the cement on the Taj’s domes and minarets. Others installed the casino's windows and chandeliers. Still others laid the pipes and concrete pavers.
When contractors complained about delays in pay, Trump said he needed to complete audits to make sure they weren’t overcharging. Years later, when he ran for president and was asked about his failure to pay, Trump suggested that he needed to carefully check the bills because he feared that some contractors were cheating him.
y 1991, when the Taj collapsed into bankruptcy, Trump offered those contractors only 33 cents in cash for each dollar he owed. He promised another 50 cents on the dollar later. But many contractors say it took years to get anything.
And they were the lucky ones.
An Atlantic City firm that supplied paving stones lost $1.2 million. An Ohio company that made the Taj Mahal’s onion domes was shortchanged $2 million. A firm that brought in the Carrara marble from Italy went bankrupt.
