Yeah, Trump actually is directly responsible for a piece of Puerto Rico's debt.


What does this mean? He owns debt they issued? They issued debt for a resort backed by their government?


He went bankrupt on a golf course in Puerto Rico, which added about $32 million and some change to Puerto Rico's debt.


What I read, the defaulted bonds were from the development of the course, then Trump came in years later as it was losing money to basically operate and manage the course. Ultimately it wasn't turned around and they defaulted.

I wouldn't say he's directly responsible for those defaults since they were outstanding before he came on and the course was losing money and on the course to default. You could blame him for not turning the course around.
