How many foreign operatives are now buying memberships at Mar A Lago?

[Solly Mack]

Or booking rooms for the upcoming weekend? Since Trump will once again be on vacation.

200k is a cheap way for a country to gain intel from such an obviously amateur operation as the Trump presidency.

You never know what might happen, so have the mics and the cameras ready.

1. Way cheaper to come in on a work visa

Nobody pays attention to the help and they have access to every room on the property. My guess is several are already there.

[Solly Mack]

2. I agree. Probably already there working.

But now the world knows how open to access the place is and how sloppy Trump Inc is, and how easy it would be to gain all manner of information.

They also know no one cares if you go around taking photos of people and events outsiders really shouldn't be a party to.

4. i suspect when the money is followed,

ridiculously priced condos will be a big thing. great way to launder money. great way to make a payoff to a real estate "mogul".

[Solly Mack]

6. There's that too.

[bettyellen]

19. He already had a development in Fl nicknamed "Little Russia" and it suffered due

To the economic sanctions. I think that makes the part of the dossier about Trump giving Putin info about Russian oligarchs much more possible and likely. There were Russians just expelled from Florida in January too.
There's a cabal down there and they don't seem to trust each other.

[jehop61]

7. And don't forget

The help are all foreign nationals here on work visas, because rTump doesn't hire Americans

[democratisphere]

3. I've heard the entire United Nations is relocating from NYC to

Mar-A-Lago.

[Solly Mack]

5. heh!

8. So does Mar a Loco have a SCIF?

Sure doesn't appear so.

A Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF; pronounced "skiff&quot in United States military, national security/national defense and intelligence parlance, is an enclosed area within a building that is used to process Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) types of classified information.

[Solly Mack]

15. Doesn't appear to have one. Otherwise, a smart president would have moved things inside.

You don't sit back and gloat as if you're the center of attention while your staff hustles about grabbing documents. It looks bad.

In some ways it looks as if you set the whole thing up so you can look like a big shot to your guests.

For the life of me, I just don't see Trump as anything other than a loser, so while some might see the president as a big shot, I don't see Trump that way - at all.

Had it been a national/international incident, Trump and staff behaving that way in front of people without clearances is a danger to national security.

[GP6971]

21. My company's Security Dept

is going ape shit with so many flagrant security violations. If we did anything like that we would be terminated with security clearances yanked with the recommendation that it never be reinstated.

Such a total disregard for security is a huge danger for the country.

[Solly Mack]

22. Yeah. A lot of that apeshit is going on in my house as well.

SO is former military and worked with CID, others.

[GP6971]

23. As did I

and my son is Army Signal where security is paramount.

Bottom line...he's all for his personal showmanship vs. the well being of the country.

9. Who is screening all these guests? What about the guests of guests? Who are these people dining

at the club....just random people showing up on a Saturday night? If that's the case that's bad because who the fuck are they....in the other case if these people are "known"..well then who the hell are they?? Talk about paying for access!!!!

[Solly Mack]

16. I doubt they are screened.

Just big money people paying for access.

[trof]

10. I'm guessing they alrady have. Months ago.

[Solly Mack]

12. Looks like they are going to get their full money's worth.

[Baitball Blogger]

11. The increase in new members will be a problem only if they bogart the best tee times.

The old members will probably mutiny.

I know of what I speak.

[Solly Mack]

13. Tee times are sacred.

[Corgigal]

14. Iran and Chinese nationals

Should be all over that place, which I'm sure they are.

Russians are good, they are already calling the shots.

I remember serving in the USAF , and the Iranian pilots were stationed with us. Everyone got along, so when Bannon get his way, we are gonna be fighting people who were directly trained by us. Great.

[Solly Mack]

18. Probably. No doubt about Russia. Too much invested to not be there.

Bannon really needs to go.

[gordianot]

17. The new Rick's from Casablanca.

Place to go if you want to play.

[Solly Mack]

20. Where any idiot with a phone camera can sell to the highest bidder

or just be stupid enough to post on Facebook in order to brag.
