“Mr. Trump said Wednesday that the ballroom will cost $300 million — up from the $200 million figure that White House officials initially cited.”

Fuck it by this time tomorrow its gonna be $400 million if not $500.

    You joke, but Mar-a-lago was literally donated to the National Park Service in 1973 when Marjorie Post died, with the idea of it being a Winter White House.

    It was determined to be too costly to maintain and secure, and returned to the Post Foundation in 1980. And then Trump bought it in 1985.
