https://www.msn.com/en-US/news/politics/oh-god-the-ivana-trump-gravesite-story-just-took-an-even-more-sick-and-twisted-turn/ar-AA10epP1Ivana Trump, ex-wife of ex-president Donald Trump and mother of Don Jr., Ivanka, and Eric, was laid to rest late last month near the first hole of Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
Photos of her gravesite began circulating on Twitter over the weekend and, well, we think the images speak for themselves:

Now, you may be wondering why anyone would be buried on a golf course. Turns out, it might all be part of Trumps tax evasion strategy, er, plan. Surprised? Neither are we.
New Jersey tax code exempts cemetery land from all taxes, rates, and assessments. By burying his ex-wife on his golf course, Trump now has yet another way of avoiding taxes on the 520-acre property. Or at least on the approximately 10-acres around where Ivana is buried.
He already gets a deep discount by growing hay and raising a small herd of goats on the land, which allows him to claim the estate is used for agriculture, thus qualifying it as farmland, which reduces his tax bill from $80,000 to less than $1,000.
New Jerseys tax code also exempts cemeteries from from business taxes, sales taxes, income taxes, and inheritance taxes.
It doesnt take much to see where this is going.

playbook.
Other pages: Covfefe, bible/church photo op, looking at the sun during an eclipse, Ivanas too tight shirt with hard nipples
All plays served them well keeping tongues wagging about contrived nonsense.

(51,705 posts)They did not release pictures of the grave or otherwise publicize it. They just cravenly plopped her there like a backyard pet burial because they wanted the tax dodge. But they have been grifting for so long they have lost the sense of decency that tells you what might have really bad optics.

(1,040 posts)and the FAQ page on the New Jersey Cemetery Board's website when someone asked if they could be buried on their private property ...
"The only place that burial can take place in New Jersey is on land that is dedicated for cemetery purposes. For your property to be used for burial, you would have to apply to the New Jersey Cemetery Board for a Certificate of Authority to operate as a "cemetery company."
So the mofo would have had to apply to the board for a Certificate of Authority. Wonder if he did.

(86,786 posts)I wonder if someone could challenge whether Ivana is even in the coffin and force him to prove she is. If not, charge him with criminal intent.

Maybe I shouldn't be laughing, but I am.
SunSeeker
(51,705 posts)But then again, my neighbors really loved their dog. Ivana did not have Trump's love. That scumbag doesn't love anyone but himself.

(14,494 posts)complete with hearse and mock casket with TFG's name.......
Roy Cohn must still be advising him from the grave. 'Ole Roy would also tell him to build an amusement park, tRump museum and souvenir shop and restaurant.
I will be very happy the day TFG is buried there, although it will be risky to go piss on his plot.......
This sort of grift by the rich is why everyday Americans can't have nice things.
