Donald Trump wants to build another huge wall, this time to keep out the rising seas threatening to swamp his luxury golf resort in Ireland.
The Republican presidential candidate has called climate
change a "con job" and a "hoax." But in an application
filed this month in County Clare, Ireland, the Trump International Golf Links
and Hotel cites the threat of global warming in seeking a permit to build a
nearly two-mile-long stone wall between it and the Atlantic Ocean. The beach in
front of the 18th green is disappearing at a rate of about a yard each year.
You probably have to cut the green's fees on a 17 hole course.
Since we're on Trump hypocrisy, here's a story on Himself's generosity to the veterans.
Almost four months after promising $1 million of his own
money to veterans’ causes, Donald Trump moved to fulfill that pledge Monday
evening — promising the entire sum to a single charity as he came under intense
media scrutiny.
Trump, now the presumptive Republican presidential nominee,
organized a nationally televised fundraiser for veterans’ causes in Des Moines
on Jan. 28. That night, Trump said he had raised $6 million, including
the gift from his own pocket.
“Donald Trump gave $1 million,” he said then.
As recently as last week, Trump’s campaign manager had
insisted that the mogul had already given that money away. But that was false:
Trump had not.
If he's a billionaire, he sure is a chintzy one.
