Trumps outstanding balance of $569,204.63 for the rally he held in the border town back in February of last year still hasnt been paid, according to El Paso Mayor Dee Margo. Weve been unable to collect, he told Yahoo Finance. We're told even if we filed suit, chances of collection are slim. According to Margo, the heart of the conflict stems in part from an issue of botched billing on the part of the city which is now strapped for resources at the worst possible time. The city mishandled the documentation and the way we should have handled it and we learned a lot. Were not used to presidents coming to visit El Paso, he said. Documents from an open records request filed by Yahoo Finance reveal the outstanding balance includes a more than $380,000 charge for police and more than $60,000 charged to the fire department. A 21% late fee assessed to the Trump campaign after the balance still remained unpaid in March 2019 pushed the balance past the $500,000 mark. On Thursday, Margo relented the strapped position his police and fire departments find themselves in, saying, Our police are stretched to the full extent of their capacity. We have COVID issues with our police and fire department, we have a number of issues were trying to deal with. Earlier this year in April, when Margo was instructing his staff to file suit against the Trump campaign, a Texas Tribune report highlighted that city leaders were already facing more than $25 million in lost revenue due to the coronavirus pandemic and were weighing cutting projects and employee salaries. Despite that stance, the Republican mayor, who is up for re-election, refuted the idea that the nonpayment has had any impact on the citys ability to battle its current health crisis. No, it has no bearing whatsoever, Margo said. A Trump campaign spokesperson did not return Yahoo Finances request for comment. --- https://imgur.com/bbRWLI8 https://imgur.com/A0BErSV https://imgur.com/S1m3po4 https://imgur.com/7fCcfko <cite>Bio1590 posted [p:946511759] in Trump stil...
