The golf club collapsed following the recession, leaving Puerto Rican taxpayers out of pocket to the tune of $32.7m, according to a bankruptcy court filing from the government..

Trump’s Puerto Rico Golf Course Caught Screwing Residents Out Of $32 Million
Amy Siskind, a prominent Hillary Clinton campaigner, has said Mr Trump needs to “pay them back”.
“When Trump's Puerto Rico golf course went bankrupt, he left Puerto Rican taxpayers with a $33m bill! And he's blaming them?” she said on Twitter.
When Mr Trump accused Democrats of wanting to “shut [the] government if we don’t bail out Puerto Rico” in April, an apparent reference to Senator Bill Nelson’s efforts to address a health care funding crisis on the island, the Florida Democratic Party hit back.
It suggested the billionaire was partly to blame for the island’s economic crisis due to the bill that was left for the failed golf course.
