Because smart business owners not only buy a lesser product but then overpay for it.
Even before Trump Tower, Trump had connections to the mob through Roy Cohn.
I'm not saying the Clintons are clean. But the fact that you refuse to acknowledge Trump's own mob connections means you're either naive, deluded, or a shill.

Clearly you're not familiar with Trump Towers' construction.
It's 1979. Trump wants to build a skyscraper in the heart of Manhattan. At this point in time his lawyer is Roy Cohn, consigliere to the top two mob families in New York.
When it came time to build his skyscraper he decided to use ready-mix concrete. This is a style of concrete that's already more expensive to use and is more problematic than pre-cast. Not only did he buy the worse concrete, he significantly overpaid for it.
And who did he buy it from? Companies owned by those same mob families his lawyer worked for.
So he's already employing the top mob lawyer and utilizing the top two mob families. If that wasn't enough to establish his mob connection, enter John Cody.
He was a Union leader deeply connected to the mob and in charge of the Trump Tower project.
At that point in time union-connected construction crews tended to create a lot of issues when any kind of problem emerged.
Somehow Trump Tower had no such issues despite using a type of concrete that tended to create those problems.
So we have a builder with a mob lawyer, overpaying for cheap mob concrete, and using mob construction crews.
And you want to argue he's no more mob connected than the hipster around the corner at Starbucks?
You are missing the Forest for the Trees....who BOUGHT THE TOWERS FROM TRUMP???

Why frame this strictly as the Clinton's having ties to the Gambinos?
Trump's old lawyer, Roy Cohn, was a consigliere for the Genoveses and Gambinos.
Trump Tower was constructed using overpriced concrete from Genovese and Gambino owned companies.
It's also worth looking in to the ties between Trump, John Cody, and the mob.

So it is looking like Trump and Q are really just deep state version 2

Augie you are RIGHT.....
You never have to tell me that, we'll just assume it.
The rest of your post is an incoherent word salad.
