Immortal words
Trump says his glorious Doral golf dump HAS NO BEDBUGS. Well all right then.
The president would like to make one thing clear: The Trump National hotel in Doral, Fla. — which he’s pushing as the site for next year’s G-7 meeting — does not have bed bugs.
“No bedbugs at Doral,” Trump tweeted Tuesday morning. “The Radical Left Democrats, upon hearing that the perfectly located (for the next G-7) Doral National MIAMI was under consideration for the next G-7, spread that false and nasty rumor.”
Not a rumor so much as a widely-reported news item.
The “nasty rumor” to which he refers stems from a 2016 lawsuit brought by Eric Linder, a New Jersey man who claimed his room in the Doral’s Jack Nicklaus villa had a bed bug infestation. Linder reached a settlement with the property in 2017, according to the Miami Herald.
Linder’s lawsuit reemerged in the media discourse Monday after Trump told reporters at the G-7 meeting in Biarritz, France, that the hotel would likely be the venue for next year’s conference. Trump could stand to profit from the influx of diplomats, politicians and staff to the hotel.
Could? There’s no “could” about it. If the G7 is held at Trump’s swamp he will make big $$$.
FDR: “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”
JFK: “Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country.”
Reagan: “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.”
Trump: “No bedbugs at Doral.”
So Bret Stephens will not be invited to the next G7 meeting?
(I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself.)
Hahaha well that’s how it came up in the first place so it’s all fair.
