Just look wherever he has a hotel.
I thought about this a bunch.
Somewhere, way down the line, someone is back stopping him.
I know enough about the aviation industry to understand that when you want to fuel a plane, the folks putting the fuel IN the plane WILL GET PAID or you won't get fueled again, period. Word gets out pretty quickly if you start stiffing FBO's
So Trumpy had a 767 he flew around on (And before that, a 737 ...Edit; It was a 727, not a 737) and it obviously burned fuel. So....you can pay for fuel on a credit card, even use one to put 10,000 gallons on a jet, no problem. Credit lines like that exist. So his line of credit wasn't declined...at least not so much that it became news.
But you can pay off one line of credit with another. And another. And so on...until.....
YOU CAN'T
And there is the backstop. There just has to be.
Somewhere, way down the line is a someone or someones who has a vested interest in ...
A) Making sure he is minimally solvent, and
B) Staying anonymous.
When all this comes out, and it will, sooner or later, it will be shown that Donald Trumpy was the biggest international con and scam artist to ever rise to political power in the West.
Ever.
And if it doesn't make the American people seriously re-think the way we do things, we deserve whatever follows.
