Authorities in Erie, Pennsylvania, are still seeking $40,330 from Donald Trump’s presidential campaign to pay for assistance they provided for his 2018 and 2023 campaign visits, bringing the total debt five cities say he owes them to over $740,000.
The Erie claim was made by a spokesman for the city’s Democratic Mayor Joe Schember during a conversation with the Erie Times-News.
It is in addition to more than $700,000 of unpaid debts that four cities—El Paso, Texas; Spokane, Washington; Mesa, Arizona; and Green Bay, Wisconsin—were still seeking last month for rallies that took place between 2016 and 2019, a Newsweek investigation found.

It’s shocking that anyone let’s him have a rally without paying up front.
Given his legendary reputation for stiffing contractors, it’s amazing anyone does any business at all with him without getting paid cash up-front.
It’s amazing that these cities let him hold another rally after stiffing them twice.
Not if the people in charge or approving it are republicans. They don’t care about tax payer money. At. All.
You’d think at some point they would learn their lesson but they seem to love footing the bill.
Fool me twice and all that shit
