Breaking news: A chain of gas stations that lowered prices in response to President Trump’s call for cheaper fuel sparked a mystery over how it was able to sell at such a discount. A supplier alleges some gas wasn’t paid for.

The entire Trump administration is a giant scam. “Trump lauded low prices at Freedom Fuel. A supplier says some gas wasn’t paid for. Mansfield Oil Company alleges in a lawsuit that a distributor never paid for gas that was supplied to some Freedom Fuel stations.” https://www. washingtonpost.com/investigati…

Remember #Donorrhea ‘s Freedom Fuel??? 😂😂😂😂 “supplier alleges that it was not paid for gas that was ultimately delivered to Freedom Fuel Network.” @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social #BlueWave #bluecrew #pinks #ElectionsMatter #VoterOutreach

There's guys like that in my town too, who are always either closing down a business and bailing out on piles of debts, or opening up a new one for a fresh start. They always still seem to have customers, and nice cars and the whole nine yards, I don't get it myself.

So, remember how people were wondering how the sketchy dudes behind "Freedom Fuel" could sell their gas so cheap? One supplier offers an answer: As alleged in a breach of contract suit, our dudes took delivery of $4 million in fuel and didn't pay for it https://www. politico.com/news/2026/08/28/l awsuit-freedom-fuel-gas-stations-trump-01055248

Of course it was/is a scam. Anything Trump is selling/promoting is a rip-off. A con.
-
When will companies and people learn? This TACO never pays for anything—you have to get your money upfront. He and his campaign still owe several cities for extra security for campaign rallies. I understand one sued, didn’t hear if they got their money.

washingtonpost.com/investigatio... LMAO duh ... Trump doesn't pay his contractors
-
Apparently for some time, Trump-affiliated businesses have been trying very very hard to prevent people from hearing about it, specifically because so many suppliers/contractors/etc know not to deal with Trump.

Every f'ing thing this clown nazi is involved in is a scam. Everything. https://www. politico.com/news/2026/08/28/l awsuit-freedom-fuel-gas-stations-trump-01055248

I love how everyone acts so surprised when the Trump organization dies t pay him the money he owes them. There are still venues from his first term political campaigning that he owes money to lol.

Wasn't there some massive stolen fuel scheme going on in the Tristate area back in the 90s by the Russian Mafia orchestrated by the same Russian Mafia oligarchs that were staying in trump tower?
-
His cult, about a third of our adult population, are not wavering He could shit in their mouths and not only would they swear it was pumpkin pie they’d ask for seconds
-
Trump basically stealing from others for personal profit. That’s on point for him. Speaking of oil profits where is that missing Venezuelan oil money?
-
I don’t feel bad for anyone who knowingly does business with Trump and then doesn’t get paid. Basically natural selection at this point.
-
Even more so than the conservative pastor molesting children? I don't think so, that's a near daily thing.
-
Argentina is a friend to the trump regime. Why else would they invite us over for a midnight pillow fight?
-
Lol, when are mofos gonna learn that Trump is notorious for stiffing businesses for services rendered?
-
I’m SHOCKED! Ok, not shocked. At all. Just surprised it only took weeks for this to come to light.
-
I mean, the man got on live TV on numerous occasions that called his base stupid to their faces.
-
Is there anyone outside his family that actually benefited. Seems like most just burn to ashes.
-
So inflation numbers were not only manipulated but more actual crime from this administration.
