A: Because people like this exist.

OUCH!
Interviewer: Are you in good financial standing?
Him: I owe a few hundred million to Mr. Hankey. The Saudis and Russians have also propped me up on several occasions. Needless to say, I’m obligated to do their bidding.
Interviewer: Oh. Any other “obligations” we should be aware of?
Him: Nothing major. I’m appealing civil judgments against me for over half a billion dollars. I also have criminal trials in four different jurisdictions. Stuff ranging from election interference, violations of the Espionage Act, obstruction of justice etc. I’ll need time off for days in court, maybe jail time if I’m held in contempt, prison if things don’t go my way…my PTO days should cover it.
Interviewer: What?
Him: Don’t worry. I’ve been criming for decades. I usually get away with it.
Interviewer: We cannot possibly offer you a job. Your history makes you unemployable.
Him: Are you saying I can run for President of the United States but you don’t trust me to flip cheeseburgers at your McDonald’s?
Interviewer: Yes, we have standards.

This is s brilliant piece. If you don't have time to read the whole thing, here's the lede:
This is a tough column to write, because I don’t want to demean or insult those who write me in good faith. I’ve started it a half dozen times since November but turned to other topics each time because this needle hard to thread. No matter how I present it, I’ll offend some thoughtful, decent people."
"The north star here is truth. We tell the truth, even when it offends some of the people who pay us for information."

In case you missed this little nugget:
Trump’s guardian angel for the bond is Don Hankey, an 80-year-old multi billionaire from LA who made his fortune with subprime car loans and already holds at least two very large trump loans.
But nah, he doesn't want anything in return...

We will still have elections. We will still have sunshine. We will still have rain. We will still have flowers. We will still have dogs and cats. We will still have Doritos. We will still have…etc

Trump: If we don’t win on November 5th, I think our country is going to cease to exist. It could be the last election we ever have. I actually mean that. If we don’t win, I think this could be the last election we ever have
