In response to "LIR: ty97. How is this much different than other presidents with property on martha's vineyard or wherever they go? " by oblique, SuperFeud Champion

I'm not sure I understand your comparison?

Presidents have vacation homes, and that's more than fine! People visit them at their vacation homes and that's more than fine!

Trump's vacation home is a private membership resort that he owns. It costs, I believe, 200K to join that membership resort. It's pay-for-access, which was apparently REALLY IMPORTANT to people during the election.

Responses:

Not to mention that they jacked up the membership fee as soon as Trump was elected. -- nm - pmb Feb 13, 08:09
ah, I didn't know that it was his own property (though I guess I should've assumed that) -- nm - oblique, SuperFeud Champion Feb 13, 07:58 12

      - The winter White House should be annexed under eminent domain, and there should immediately be a subsidy program for green fees. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 13, 08:04 2
        
        Mar-A-Lago was government property for years but they decided it was too expensive to maintain and sold it to Trump. - spamlet Feb 13, 08:17 1
        
        Well, they gave it back to the Posts who sold it to Trump. - znufrii Feb 13, 08:19
    - Well, if you succeeded in missing that Mar-a-Lago is his own personal golf resort with a $200k membership fee, well done. Well done. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 13, 08:03 2
      - Well, it was $125k until he won the election. -- nm - Spawn Feb 13, 08:05 1
        
        Well, the increase is justified because now it's like getting a seat in the situation room. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 13, 08:08
