Trump This

I have never been a fan of Donald Trump. His personality always strikes me as cheesy, aberrant at best and his hair, let's not even go there. But the Donald has finally done something I can applaud. I am even debating doing my happy naked dance because this impacts the economy here on my little island in a big positive way.

Donald Trump and our governor Anibal Acevedo Vila announced a partnership to build a $600 million golf complex on the island northern coast. The new "Trump International Golf Club Puerto Rico" will be developed with a local construction company and will include 500 residences. The first 56 villas will be sold at prices starting at $1.4 million and will include access to a private jet, yacht and limousine service.

Developers will improve the golf course previously known as The Coco Beach Golf and Country Club in time to host the Puerto Rico Open, a PGA tour event.

What does this mean to Puerto Rico: JOBS, lot's of jobs, more tourism dollars, it impacts our shipping ports, air travel, and did I mention JOBS. More jobs. (a big deal since the pharmaceutical company's are leaving the island at a rapid pace).

So Mr. Trump, who cares that you always give me the hebbie jebbies. So what if you hair looks like it needs to find a better home. This Boricua is just thrilled to think our Puerto Rican economy is getting vitamin boost. Gracias for that.

Here I was hoping Trump did something un-Trump-like. Same old Trump.

Still, it's nice that it's finally impacting someone I kinda know in a nice way!

Will this be a 'green' development? Ha, can you imagine Trump actually caring about the environment?
And Heather, well, when you have that much money, it just really doesn't matter.

Susan, you can stay here, there is no private jet, or limo service but you get to feed the chickens.

Tera, I know, that is some scary hair.

Jali, damn right!

Heather, he knows but he is too rich to care.

Franki, he is twisted but for now I don't care.

Nor, green, of course not, he isn't that nice.

I cant be mad at him. Make that loot. Be the deal been don a long time ago and they just had the chance now to drink on it old school style

I can't even watch him on television without looking for a barf bag, but hopefully his new project will do some good things for Puerto Rico as well as for his bankroll and ego.

KIDDO!! DON'T GO!
if you treasure your life at all do not go to puerto rico to feed es's chickens! chickens are evil! and feeding them is dangerous! especially if you're an innocent 7 year old girl who hasn't started shaving her legs yet and doesn't know to ~throw~ the food and run!

Tera said...

Convince Puerto Rican women to seduce him and shave his head...it would be a favor to the world.

Don't think of the hair as hair. It's a furry bicycle helmet.
