Please do not make me think about Trump’s junk.
Thanks in advance.
FTA:
Even before he was president, Trump created ill will in the town by refusing to comply with even basic local requirements, such as adhering to height limits for a massive flagpole he installed
Flashback to 2008, when Stephen Colbert mercilessly mocked Trump’s stupid displays of fake patriotism long before Trump’s run for President. The best line comes near the end when Trump admits he doesn’t know what the 13 stripes on the flag represent.
So long, loser.
Ever see the movie “Escape from New York” where they turn the island of Manhattan into a prison? They mine the rivers around the island. Why can’t we do that to the island of Palm Beach? Most of the people that live there are probably criminals anyways…
When is Florida expected to be covered by sea water? Asking for a country.
I hope they’re counting the White House silverware. I mean that literally.
Yeah, I’ve been a bit worried some things will go “missing.” Especially given that with all the stuff that’s been caught on camera being taken out, I’m not entirely sure it all belonged to the people removing it. Trump stealing stuff is a very real possibility, as he’s previously treated government property as his own. (When he visited the US embassy in France, he demanded a painting off the wall, etc.)
I didn’t know that such specialists as watch movers existed, but given the reported size of Turmp’s junk, it seems an appropriate choice.
Wake me up when the asset forfeiture vans come to take the stuff away.
Huh. And I thought it would be sent to a pricey, heavily guarded dacha on the Black Sea.
Where’s it going after Mar-a-Lago?
GREG ALLEN, BYLINE: Palm Beach isn’t just a pleasant resort; it’s one of the wealthiest places in America. And wealthy people don’t like being inconvenienced. For many there, hosting a president was a big inconvenience.
Capone was taken down by the IRS. Will Trump’s downfall be the HOA?
Low blow.

I like to think they’ll get DFT on financial charges that relate to and which expose his other activities. Then, send him to Capone’s old cell on Alcatraz, fixed up to be tolerable to one of humble means, with the toilet spray painted gold.
Trump vs an army of Karens.
At a guess, I’d expect that a lot more than Trump’s junk was removed. I hope some anal-retentive career staff member took a good inventory of the WH china and silver and antiques and art before he came in and will do the same after he leaves. Someone like Trump would never leave without stealing whatever he thought he could get away with.
Use artists’ oil paint, the kind that takes two weeks to dry.
