President Donald Trump on Tuesday used a photo op with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to promote his club.

“Now [Mar-a-Lago] is indeed the Southern White House,” Trump said. “And, again, many, many people want to be here. Many of the leaders want to be here. They request specifically.”

  2. I do not agree to this designation.
    However “Future Site of Oligarch Penitentiary” is something I will consider naming it.

    Just wait until he leaves office. People are going to scurry away quicker than Trump from Russian sanctions.

    Following some rather thoughtful and courteous opening remarks by Prime Minister Abe, our dear-leader Trump responded with what can only be described as an advertisement for Mar-A-Lago – essentially an infomercial for his own club. How outrageous! How insulting it must have been to the Japanese PM and his entourage!

    Trump is truly an uncultured, self-aggrandizing buffoon who has no business in public life and is truly an embarrassment to our great nation.
