rump just weirdly announced that next year’s G-7 summit will take place at... his golf course outside Miami — “because it’s right by the airport that takes planes from everywhere.” He said there’s “enough buildings” at his place so that “each country can have their own villa, their own bungalows, each with great views!” This golf course is privately owned by Trump. It is currently losing lots of money as it’s in a strip mall area built on a swamp that used to be part of the Everglades. This will mean a ton of $$$$$$$$$$$$ from the G-7 to Trump — proving once again, if you can’t beat ‘em, bilk them.

Natascha Elena Uhlmann, Jacobin
