Why was “Trump Models” shut down? There were numerous allegations of human trafficking and exploitation. According to eye witness testimony, Trump would never get away with paying American models so poorly, which is exactly why he imports them. The models complained that they were forced to share a two bedroom apartment with at least 10 other models, all at very inflated prices. Most of the models are under age: “It is like modern-day slavery” (Canadian born model Rachel) Blais said, adding that “most of the girls in the apartment that were not American didn’t have a work visa.” “We’re hoarded into these small spaces,” Kate recalled. “The apartment was like a sweatshop.” “I was by far the oldest in the house at the ripe old age of 18,” Anna added.

She’s suing Trump’s agency. Meanwhile Donald Trump earned nearly $2 million (disclosed), from the company, in which he holds an 85 percent stake.
