Leaving Mar-a-Lago

From CNN:

Many once-loyal members of Mar-a-Lago are leaving because they no longer want to have any connection to former President Donald Trump, according to the author of the definitive book about the resort.

“It's a very dispirited place,” Laurence Leamer, historian and author of Mar-a-Lago: Inside the Gates of Power at Donald Trump’s Presidential Palace, told MSNBC host Alex Witt on Weekends with Alex Witt Saturday. He said members are “not concerned about politics and they said the food is no good.”
It sounds like Mar-a-Lago may be turning into a latter-day Xanadu. Jigsaw, anyone?

MY favorite phrase:
"former President Donald Trump"

It has a nice ring to it. Maybe it’ll catch on. :)

I'm pretty sure the food and drink has never been very good. I was once dragged to a bar in Trump Tower by an overzealous family office guy who wanted my opinion on a medical device company. My up Tito's martini with a twist came in a wine glass on the rocks with a blue cheese olive. Cheers Donnie.

Yuck. There's a fine review of the Trump Grill from Vanity Fair that calls attention to undrinkable drinks.
