President Donald Trump on Wednesday lost a legal fight over the Jupiter golf club he once owned, where dozens of disgruntled members say they were charged thousands while not being allowed to play.

A federal judge ruled that Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter should pay $5.7 million to people who argued that while waiting for membership deposit refunds, they were charged annual dues and fees – even though they were barred from using the golf course, restaurant, spa and other amenities.

Barring people still paying fees from using the club “revoked or canceled their memberships” and entitled them to refunds within 30 days, according to U.S. District Judge Kenneth Marra’s ruling.

Trump took over the former Ritz-Carlton golf club in 2012.

17. you joke, but

You joke, but I actually do think Fuckump is so far in debt to Putin and Russia, that (and my speculation, not facts on this) they came to him and said, if we get you elected, if our espionage unit can hack your easy voting POS machines and get you in, when elected, you drop sanctions against us and we will forget about your personal debt. Lets see where this goes...I am hoping the lazy assed fuckers will get off their asses and vote the mid-term election and art least turn the Senate, that will give democrats some leverage.....

11. Trump is nothing more than a con artist and we're his latest mark.

12. Interesting thing to add to the history books.

This along with the people he defrauded with his "university".

I can't say that i feel sorry for these people really, because they gave money to trump, but I might be a little worried now if my name was on that law suit. Based on his reactions to Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin, trump has shown he can be vindictive.

13. He'll just ignore it.

After all, it's only a court order.
