One gets the feeling, Trump believes in a past life he was Louis XIV.

I get the impression that he is a man who doesn’t need to rape and pillage the country to build a fortune off the backs of its citizens like certain other politicians.

Just think of the jobs that were created in the remodeling of that place.

Not my style. Living around all that would drive me buggy.

Trump knows the value of assists and people. This building was slatted for demolition as others could not make it is full potential. Just like Trumps belief in the USA.

It definitely has the Versailles thing going on instead of Shabby Chic. But, you know, it’s also a lot of fun. I’d love to have the money to stay there!

This one gets the feeling all the nevertrumpers came out this morning.

You all have a nice Thanksgiving.

“Yet, when he arrived, wealthy locals did not welcome the brash businessman.

He faced a court battle over an 80ft flagpole at the resort which held a massive American flag. Trump’s foundation was ordered to pay $100,000 to veteran charities after installing the pole in 2006 without appropriate permission.”

Fly the flag first and deal with consequences later.

Love it.

Absolutely magnificent.

Interesting that it was given to the government to be used as a resort for the presidents and heads of state.

She indeed got her wishes fulfilled.

God works in mysterious ways.

Video of DJT playing golf, please!
I understand that he has a right-good swing and a teens-to-lower 20’s handicap.

Living in a large log home in heavy hardwood forest that my sons and I built with our own hands, I could never be comfortable in such opulence.......my wife, 8 kids and I don’t have a formal molecule in our bodies.

I do have expensive tastes in any kind of machinery, from cars, motorcycles and tractors to weapons - but not to impress anyone (I could not care less about what others think). I just really appreciate fine machinery that works exceptionally well.

So I do have my weaknesses.

But such opulence seems to be Trump’s nature - and I don’t fault him for that - as long as he is generous with sharing his wealth with those less fortunate than himself - which I understand he indeed does......

The bathroom looked like it was a camo marble design which could make for some tough mornings.

Why isn’t that plane casting a shadow?

Imagine Trump spent his own money to decorate in the style he wants. So unlike the Obama’s who spend our tax dollars or the grifters who spend tax free foundation money on Chelsea’s wedding and her $10 million condo. How shocking a President who respects our money.

I can definitely aspire to owning a mansion myself! Screw the whining socialists who only want everyone equally miserable, they can go build their own little North Korean compounds.

What I got from the article was it's snarky tone, emphasizing:

VERY flashy

lavishly furnished in a garish fashion

gaudy chandeliers

Unsurprisingly, the property has four posted (sic) beds

One thing missing is a fan in the bedroom, it may be in a closet though.

LOL! It’s the ONLY thing I’m not crazy about regarding Donald Trump.....his taste in decorating!

On the other hand, isn’t the style of the resort dictated by its original design? He loves rescuing old buildings and restoring them to their old splendor. He also has a number of restoration projects that are very modernistic.

Whether or not you like his taste in decorating, you must admit the man has a flair about him. And, unlike King Louis, Trump paid for everything with his own money. I admire the man.
