So, about 20 years ago, there was a planned subdivision in the southwest corner of our city. The developer planned for a championship 18-hole golf course with the expensive homes surrounding the course and many others outlying the premium homes.

The SW portion of our city is pretty dumpy, and it borders ag land planted mostly to almonds and grapes. Low income folks reside near this planned development. The original developer even put in two holes for the future golf course. Well, these things have a way of going south--fast--and he filed bankruptcy. Outside of the two-hole golf course, the land was still in almonds. The lender foreclosed and now owned a quarter section of almonds less the two-hole golf course.

Word got back to New York, and many in our city were agog when it was announced that HRH King Donald of Trumplandia was going to visit and perhaps put in an offer to complete the development. His impending visit was splashed across the front page of our local newspaper. Writers packed the airport when he flew in. He promptly boarded a helicopter to have a look see. Citizens arrived at the location hoping to get a glimpse of this real estate magnate maggot.

I believe he was back in his plane and eastbound in less than an hour.

I've always wanted to play those two holes nine times to see how I would do on this championship course.

In his book, Jared Kushner alleges Trump Chief of Staff John Kelly shoved Ivanka in the WH: “She wasn’t hurt .. but in his rage, he showed his true character.” Kelly angrily denies it: “It is inconceivable that I would ever shove a woman. Never happened.”
Marc Short was on CNN this morning and the anchor asked him about this alleged incident and if he thought it could have happened. I forget the exact words, 'cause :oldlady:, but he seemed skeptical of Kushner's version.

EXCLUSIVE -- Dr. Anthony Fauci received a call from CNN’s Jim Acosta that created an "awkward moment" during a key COVID meeting in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, according to former White House senior advisor Jared Kushner.

In an excerpt from his new book, "Breaking History: A White House memoir," that has been obtained by Fox News Digital, Kushner recalled an incident in 2020 when Fauci was interrupted by a call from CNN's then-chief White House correspondent.

"Early in the pandemic, Fauci was sitting in my office when his phone rang. We both glanced down and saw the caller’s name: Jim Acosta, the president’s chief antagonist on the generally hostile news network CNN. Neither of us acknowledged the awkward moment, but it stuck in my mind," Kushner wrote.

While journalists call newsmakers on a frequent basis as part of their job, the staunchly anti-Trump reporter calling Fauci directly on his cell was enough to raise Kushner’s eyebrows.

The former White House senior advisor’s reference to Acosta being "the president’s chief antagonist" came after Acosta became notorious for shouting questions, delivering on-air liberal editorials and bickering with Trump and other members of the administration. Trump famously sparred with Acosta on multiple occasions, raising his profile by calling him "fake news."
Can't wait for Acosta's weekend news edition to get his take on this :popcorn:

A picture of Eric Trump's golf bag has given a strong hint that his father, former President Donald Trump, intends to make a 2024 presidential run.

I don't think that's related, there always have been 2024 memorabilia on the market.

True, but the fact that it is Eric Trump sporting it may be of note. Or no one tells him anything. Dunno.

Could just be Eric trying to suck up to Dad, in the spirit of 'Let's humour the old goat'.

Or it could be people desperate to find a reason to talk about "GRUMP 2024!!" when they have literally nothing talk about. It means feck all other than Eric is advertising trump merchandise, but "Its the strongest signal yet!!!!"

I can understand an ostentatious marker may be in the works. But that has the landscaping charm of a vacant lot. It's weedy, not bucolic. Also, I wonder if they have rules. Whenever a parent/grandparent in my family has died, their grave ends up covered with flowers, teddy bears, etc., as tribute from kids, grandkids, et. al. And actually stays that way as long as the offspring are in the area. That's so stark looking. And weedy.

It's a golf course. Unless Dingbat likes Sheep wrecking the ground of his precious Golf cheating range this has nothing to do with Shepherds, and it's as "rural" and "pastoral" as a sodding Car Park.

Bucolic. Sheesh.

I am not sure, but I vaguely remember that he in fact does have like 3 goats or something on some part of the property which allows him to take a tax credit for all of it excluding the actual greens or some such nonsense that only comes from from some expert level lobbying of the tax laws.

Indeed. It has saved him millions, Bedminster's property taxes are just a low low $700/yr.

In the Northwestern Broward County suburb of Parkland, Florida, there's some multi-million dollar mansions where they put a few goats or sheep or cows on the property to claim agricultural tax exceptions. My ex-wife had a circle of gaming friends separate from but partially overlapping my own (the remnants of a former LARP group in which I had participated before I met her, and then which she joined to have a separate gaming activity on my Saturday nights not realizing that most of them already knew me, which led to *hiliarity* once she started talking about her home life and a few people put two and two together, but I digress...); one of the dudes in it that not on our overlapping circles list but whom I thought was fairly cool was from an ultrawealthy family, and the one time I joined her at his house for a party, there were literally signs directing party guests away from the farm animals. To then walk into a full chef's kitchen that was larger and cost more than the half-million dollar 2 Bedroom flat I now occupy in London is still a memory that makes me laugh with genuine delight.

But, then, these were families who did not spend money just to plaster their name on it all, for their own vainglory. So I suppose that's the big difference right there.
