Here's a dump: Mar-a-Lago was so filthy it was cited with 13 health-code violations

Undercooled meat. Dangerous fish. Health inspectors ding Trump’s Mar-a-Lago kitchen

Inspectors found 13 violations at the fancy club’s kitchen, according to recently published reports — a record for an institution that charges $200,000 in initiation fees.

▪ Fish designed to be served raw or undercooked, the inspection report reads, had not undergone proper parasite destruction. Kitchen staffers were ordered to cook the fish immediately or throw it out.

▪ In two of the club’s coolers, inspectors found that raw meats that should be stored at 41 degrees were much too warm and potentially dangerous: chicken was 49 degrees, duck clocked in a 50 degrees and raw beef was 50 degrees. The winner? Ham at 57 degrees.

▪ The club was cited for not maintaining the coolers in proper working order and was ordered to have them emptied immediately and repaired.

That's the only way to describe that gold guilded nightmare of a place. Interestingly, it seems to fit with a the abode of a narcissistic, self-centered lowlife with more money than sense, or taste.

The new president in 2021 is going to have to fumigate the White House as well as figure out how to circumvent the permanent stick charms on all the Drumpf paintings. (Apologies to Ms. Rowling.) They'll have to dedumpify the place.

A sinkhole opened in front of Mar-a-Lago, President Trump's private estate and golf club, on Monday causing minor traffic delays.

The sinkhole is 4-by-4 feet and is believed to be near a newly installed water main, according to a Palm Beach travel alert. Sinkholes are a common occurrence in Florida, according to the Weather Channel, which has called them "as much a part of the Florida landscape as palm trees and alligators."

The town of Palm Beach issued a travel alert on Monday as a result of the sinkhole, saying crews from West Palm Beach Utilities will be examining the sinkhole throughout the day. According to CBS12 in Florida, one lane of traffic has been closed.

Sometimes I wonder if "deplorable," rotten head to the tail, isn't just some kind of communicable disease.

Maybe I should have compassion for people who don't care who lives or dies if they can save a few bucks on their taxes or kick someone not white heterosexual male in the teeth.

...what he did to get (steal) that property should have been enuf for people to vote against him - I don't remember hearing about this...

History
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mar-a-Lago
SNIP...Marjorie Merriweather Post, heir to the Post Cereals business, built the house with her husband Edward F. Hutton. She hired Marion Sims Wyeth to design it, and Joseph Urban to create interior design and exterior decorations.[12][13] Upon her death in 1973, Post willed the 17-acre (6.9 ha) estate to the United States government as a Winter White House for presidents and visiting foreign dignitaries.[14] Richard Nixon preferred the Florida White House in Key Biscayne, however, and Jimmy Carter was not interested. The federal government soon realized the immense cost of maintenance, annual taxes roughly between $1 million and $3 million, and the difficulty of maintaining security for diplomats.[15] The government returned it to the Post Foundation in 1981, which listed it for sale for $20 million. Dina Merrill and Post's two other daughters did not maintain the property, expecting to sell it,[16] but there was so little interest that the city approved its demolition to build smaller homes.[17] Mar-a-Lago was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1980.[3][18][19]

Donald Trump learned about the estate after unsuccessfully trying to purchase and combine two apartments in Palm Beach for his family. According to Trump, he offered the Post family $25 million for it, an offer that they rejected. Trump then put in a bid of $2 million to purchase the land between Mar-a-Lago and the ocean, stating he intended to build a home that would block Mar-a-Lago's beach view. The threat caused interest in the property to decline. Trump ended up getting the property for $7 million in 1985.[20][16]...SNIP
