Top 11 Most Infamous Scandals of President Trump

The fourth scandal occurred during the construction of Trump Tower, when approximately 200 undocumented Polish workers were employed on the site. These workers, lacking proper safety gear, were forced to sleep on the construction site and paid just $5 per hour for any task they were assigned. They were warned not to complain if they wished to avoid being deported back to Poland.

The fifth scandal involved Trump’s participation in a controversial agreement to fund the Miss USA Beauty Pageant, which was run by George Houraney and Jill Harth. During several of the pageant’s events, Trump was accused of using his position to sexually harass contestants, which later led to a lawsuit against him.

The sixth scandal occurred when Trump posted a message on his personal Twitter account on September 11, 2013:

"I want to extend my best wishes to all, including enemies and losers, on this special day, September 11."

The tone of this message seemed more like a holiday greeting than a solemn remembrance of the tragic event that affected the nation.

The seventh scandal dates back to 1981, when Donald Trump made a poor investment by purchasing a building south of Central Park with the intention of transforming the old apartment complex into luxury housing. However, the tenants of the building refused to move. To force them out, Trump shut off all utilities, banned repairs, and threatened to evict them. Despite his efforts, the tenants' persistence eventually led Trump to give up, allowing the building to continue operating as normal.

The eighth scandal revolves around Trump’s wealth. Despite being a famous billionaire with high-profile deals and a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, reports indicate he has experienced repeated bankruptcies. There is no solid proof that his money is invested where he claims it is. Forbes magazine estimates his investments at $4 billion, Bloomberg puts the figure around $3 billion, while Trump himself asserts it to be about $10 billion.

The ninth scandal revolves around Trump’s ambitions to create his own casino empire. To achieve this, he initiated several deals, gradually purchasing shares to gain control and eliminate management fees owed to other shareholders. This eventually came to light, leading Trump to face legal action in an antitrust case.

The tenth scandal involves Trump's claim that he holds women in high regard, which, in reality, is far from true. He has been known to call Rosie O’Donnell a "pig" and Arianna Huffington a "dog." His words about women rarely show any respect. Trump even insulted a famous woman and had to appear in court, as well as calling a female lawyer "disgusting."

Finally, Trump was involved in two scandals related to the Miss Universe competition. The first occurred in 2012 when a contestant claimed the entire event was rigged, with Trump allegedly being involved. The second scandal arose from an NBC interview where two contestants declared they would withdraw from the competition due to Trump's comments about Mexicans.

One of the first scandals to mention is the ACN Pyramid Scheme. ACN was a multi-level marketing company selling specific products, with Trump serving as a spokesperson and symbol, much like on his show 'The Apprentice.' At first glance, everything seemed normal, but the core issue was that the company didn’t focus on selling products. Instead, it mainly taught people how to recruit new salespeople. These new recruits had to pay $500 for a position, and their job was to continue recruiting others. It looks like Trump was the mastermind behind the well-known pyramid scheme, which shares some similarities with those in Vietnam.

In 1973, Trump was involved in a scandal related to his refusal to hire minority workers. According to one construction manager, Trump instructed him to rate applications from African Americans as 'C' to ensure they were rejected. The incident led to an investigation by the Department of Justice.

Another scandal that cannot be overlooked is the Trump University fraud. Students at Trump University were required to pay up to $35,000 for courses and mentoring that were supposedly offered by Trump himself. They hoped to gain insider investment knowledge and have opportunities to meet Trump. However, all they received were tedious lessons and ineffective instructors.
