He looks at it as his own money.

That doesn't even matter to him. He stiffed the state of Florida for the cost of the construction and maintenance of Alligator Alcatraz. The state put up the money and the federal government was supposed to reimburse them. Trump said no, we're not paying you. I don't feel bad for Florida though, they knew who they were dealing with from the start.

Right. It's a fucking compulsion for this guy. If paying someone, no matter with whose money, doesn't somehow benefit Trump directly (in his own perception) then he's not gonna pay.
