I think he’s been told he’s in enough trouble and even the republicans have had enough. Someone finally said, no, you F***ing moron, you can’t really shoot someone on fifth avenue and get away with it.AllofFive19 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 19, 2019 10:53 pm Wonder if that will hold.

It was never appropriate for the summit to be held there.
I'm sure the Democrats will find something else to throw a tantrum about so taking this out of the running for more fodder was wise.

"White House acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney on Thursday told reporters that Trump will not profit from use of the property because any charges would be “at cost.” He also said using Doral "was millions of dollars cheaper" than other facilities and would lead to a “roughly 50% savings.”

Why didn't he submit the plans and cost in a contract of sorts to congress?
