    But I thought it was the only place in the United States suitable?

    I'm sure we will hear that all these world leaders came to Trump in tears because they don't get to pay him to stay at his bedbug infested resort.

    Once again, another poorly thought out plan by this administration.

    It's mind boggling to see how hard this administration (and mainly trump) works to divide this country internally as well as externally to the outside world. Our allies no longer trust us and we are not viewed as the world power we once were no matter how much money trump spends on the military and how big of a red button he thinks he has. News flash, any red button will be devastating to this world.There have always been issues as individuals we may not agree with a presidents decision but I have always felt at least they were always working to make the United States a united front where as trump only cares about uniting his base, padding his bank account and the hell with anyone else.

    It's hard to articulate this, but since about the end of Clinton's presidency (basically as a young teen), I've had mostly negative thoughts towards politicians... I liked personality-wise at least Bush and Obama, but I've basically always kind of felt that as a whole theirs a few people making tons of money off a lot of people, and theirs an industry in America in dividing our country. To me the biggest difference since about 2015 is that the "extreme's" of the parties garnered enough power that they could stop pretending to get along and just play up to their bases and leave the "middle" of the country to start choosing mostly off of who we think will suck least... So I get what you're saying but in my very limited experience, this is really just our country with the masks thrown off, no subtlety needed anymore.

    I know you are much younger than myself as you are actually around the age of my youngest I believe. I very seldom discussed or got involved with politics in the past and sure we have had issues but I have never felt a country so divided as it is today and I attribute the main cause to be trump.

    Trump is going to sell Camp David to himself for $1, change name to Camp Donny.

    I'm not so sure that his base is yet waking up. I feel like if Trump asked them, they would build a golden calf in his honor and bow down and worship him.
