Discussion: Trump Says He Goes To Certain Properties Because NYC Is Too Expensive (VIDEO)

And sexism, right? It was pretty obvious to me that plenty of educated people felt quite comfortable rejecting Clinton primarily because of her gender.

If there were 77,744 fewer racists voting for him, Hillary wouldā€™ve won. Thatā€™s all she lost the EC by.

All those weekends in Mar-a-lagoā€¦

Is there anything Trump wonā€™t sacrifice in his selfless, dedicated service to the American middle-class?

That was a really fascinating article.
I would use the Napoleon rooms at the Louvre as my model.
They were really classy and incredibly mod as well.
I would put up a pic of the dining room, but then Iā€™ll be all depressed that I didnā€™t conquer the world.

ā€¦ I didnā€™t speedread the article, by the way, or pretend to. I read it a while back. :slight_smile:

I know a lot of Clinton hatersā€¦they werenā€™t going to throw their vote away on a minor candidate and chose to vote against the woman whose very name made their blood boil.

127k/day for extra NYC Secret Service x 100 days = 12.7 Million dollars and counting.
(4?) weekends at Mara-lago 3M/per weekend 12 Million dollars and counting

Thatā€™s almost 25 million dollars because our spoiled oh fuck it.

Man, if I go to Camp David every weekend, I wouldnā€™t think about going anywhere else.

I wish the press would point out that Marjorie Merriweather Post, who built Mar-a-Lago, had sufficient cash flow to maintain the estate as a private residence, used for only 4 months a year. Marjorie didnā€™t have to rent out rooms to be able to afford the place.

"ā€œIt would be much better if people would understand that I could go other places than I have,ā€ Trump said. ā€œBut then they hit me for relaxing. And I donā€™t want to be known as a person that relaxes because I am working hard and I am working hard for the people and weā€™re doing a great job.ā€

I think there are a lot of Trump voters who didnā€™t buy any of his promises,

Judging from the Trumpers Iā€™ve read about over the last six months, Trump is the Presidential version of a Nigerian prince, and the vast majority of his marks bought his con hook, line, and sinker. Electorally-speaking, they all gave him the numbers to their bank accounts. The fact that he ran an explicitly racist campaign was a value-add.

Given that his supporters are just as dumb, ignorant, and supremely gullible as he is, we can safely say that Trump is the first President to come out of the Dunning-Kruger Party.

Does Trump not know that his wife and son live in NY and the cost of his going there is already paid for by having the SS in place guarding his family already. Obviously he must not miss his family very much. Malania and Trump seem to have a loveless marriage.

There is love in the marriage. He loves the look, she loves the money.

Bull. Shit.

He could stay his lazy buffon ass in DC.
Or go to Camp David if heā€™s so concerned with costs.Better yet, since they claim to be so rich they can foot the cost themselves.

Instead we have Melania and Barron in NYC costing taxpayer money.
And him jetting off to Mar-a-Loco every week partying with big wigs.
Seperate residences, seperate exuberant costs.
Oh and let;s not forget the other leech grifters (Ivanka, Jared and the rest of the clan with their security details)
Meanwhile the right wing media are strangely quiet about all this. I guess deficits and costs only matter when it comes to Democrats.
Theyā€™re hypocrites and so is Trump.

Heā€™s afraid of sleeping anywhere that isnā€™t Trump Tower, Mar-a-Diablo, or the White House. Thatā€™s why he always flew back to NYC or Palm Beach every night on the campaign, with few exceptions like when Manafort lied to keep him in Indiana.

ā€œā€¦complained about losing his old lifeā€¦ā€

What I see in these musings about how hard the job is, much harder than ā€œbuilding towers,ā€ he thought being president was easier than his old job, etc.
I think heā€™s working himself up to a resignation. I suspect at some subconscious level he has already made the decision to bail. He just has to bring it to full consciousness.
The drip, drip, drip of his taxes, Russian connection will ;put the nail in it.
And thatā€™s my theory and Iā€™m sticking to it.
