The City of Albuquerque referred the Trump campaign to a collection agency. The city is seeking approximately $200,000 following the president's rally in Rio Rancho in 2019.
Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller said the bill covers security costs that stem from the former president staying in a downtown Albuquerque hotel overnight. The security cost include blocking off parts of downtown, paying police officers overtime and covering the paid time off expenses of city workers who had to stay home.

There's been quite a few who take a long time to pay, a long after their campaigns. Or they don't pay(like Obama didn't). Hillary paid Obama's bill after he walked away from it and never looked back.
If they ever gave another candidate a pass and did not do this to them, they very likely just opened themselves up to a pile of lawsuit from Trump.
That's the first thing his lawyers will go dig into.
Who else had rallies etc. there, were they all equally billed, did they all pay, if others did not pay and were not sent to collections....then the city is wide-open to lawsuit and the taxpayers will end up funding a new shuffle-board court at Mar-a-Lago.
Otherwise, if everyone else has been equally billed and paid except Trump then it's all good.

Uhmm...no. no they wont. He owes the money, when you owe money and dont pay people turn it over to bill collectors. He will settle with them for pennies on the dollar.

Even if they did....so what? This is a contract that trump agreed to. Why are folks defending this dead beat?

Even if everyone else had not-its STILL all good.
If 2 people owe me money, and I forgive one person, its doesnt mean that the next person ALSO gets his bill forgiven. Thats nonsense.
"Oooh Oooh Malaina, if the bill collectors call, tell 'em I'm not home, gone out for cigarettes'. Same for you Ivanka, just tell the nice man Daddy's away on a business trip."
I don't recall any other President that his haters are still obsessed with.
That's the power of corporate media brainwashing. The tragedy is how they prey on the feeble minded and set them on a path that leads to chaos and self destruction.

Who knows whether the "Obama did it too," is the truth, or just BS made up on the spot, or something read on the GatewayPundit website?
Makes no difference.
Just because other people quit paying their mortgages doesn't mean the bank is fine with me skipping a few payments.
I suspect this may not be the last debt handed over to a collection agency.
Even without paying his bills, his campaign was so low on cash before the last election that they scammed millions from donors who thought they were making a one-time donation.
Strangely enough, people continue to donate.
But, whatever. There are also a lot of bills to pay, loans coming due, and properties with high overhead costs and declining revenue.
If you haven't been paid by now, you aren't getting paid.
Might as well turn it over to a collection agency.
