THE ERA OF TRUMP

Weird about the link. Here's the correct one http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/20 ... burst.html

It's as if CNN works for Trump, he couldn't ask for better patsies to be his foil, if he had them on the payroll.

Justin Trudeau does his little town hall tours here, and at every one, there's one sort of stereotypical foil who stands up and blabs off with a very scripted sounding rant, and then Trudeau gets to play to the crowd, I'm pretty sure these people are just plants who are hired by the Liberal party.

Same thing with the NDP, they had a really phony sounding ranter show up at one of their big rallies too, so the candidate got to play to his base.

Stephen Harper did it as well, they all seem to have prop foils show up from central casting, like they're on call and standing by.

Trumpism is everywhere these days, prop up a stereotypical bogey to get your base to rally around you, it's become s.o.p., as I say, CNN couldn't be more so, if they were on the payroll.

And really, the are on the payroll for all intents and purposes, Trump is their meal ticket, and Trump needs them to show up to be the foil, so even if not contractual, it's a mutually assured clickbait pact, by default.

In Canada, they probably have to hire people to show up, but in America, you get your foils for free.

Broken staircases and spoiled food: Florida health inspectors failed Trump’s Mar-a-Lago

Broken staircases and spoiled food: Florida health inspectors failed Trump’s Mar-a-Lago

Wow, people really are desperate to find anything on Trump, even when it isn’t directly related to him.

No TC this is actually coming out of Florida and since he is the owner it will be reflected back on him. After all, he is the owner and is technically (supposedly) be running the place and is held responsible for any failures.

A year after the discovery of foods that could sicken people at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, his Winter White House was just cited by inspectors for poor maintenance.

Never mind that it costs $200,000 in initiation fees to join the exclusive club, which has two restaurants and a bed-and-breakfast.

Fresh state records show the B&B needed emergency repairs in order to pass the latest inspection in November.

Trump’s club, located on a beachfront property where the historic main house was built in the 1920s for cereals heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post, was cited Nov. 8 for two violations deemed high priority: the lack of smoke detectors capable of alerting the hearing impaired through flashing bright lights; and slabs of concrete missing from a staircase, exposing steel rebar that could cause someone to fall.

And here is something about the food quality:

The November inspections of the club’s two main kitchens, meanwhile, yielded a total 15 violations.

Among the no-nos was the staff’s failure to track the freshness of potentially hazardous foods, including curry sauce dated Oct. 21 pulled from a freezer and improperly marked, milk stored at 49 degrees instead of the safe temperature of 41 degrees, and cases of hot dogs stored on the ground of the walk-in freezer.

The kitchens did pass the inspections on the first try.

That wasn’t the case when, just days before the state visit of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to Mar-a-Lago in February 2017, inspectors found sushi fish ready for consumption without the obligatory treatment for parasites and cited the club for storing food in two broken down coolers at temperatures that spoiled fresh ingredients.

And remind me, who runs the place while he is President?

Owners are responsible for their businesses. Simple as that. If Trump has hired an ineffective manager it would still be reflected on back onto him. Anyways, Trumps literally spends every weekend there golfing as well- so he SHOULD know how things are running.

The owner of Mar-a-Lago has nothing to do with health violations against Mar-a-Lago.

Go home, TC, you're drunk.

I’m not the one saying he does. I think it’s you that is partaking of the whine laced tea that is making you hallucinate.
