No, really, I mean it! Thats such a good dig on Hillary! I bet once she reads that she will withdraw immediately realizing that NOW she cant win. You are SO clever!

Ok, so now, seroiusly, what I want to know is did fish & game ensure that that thing on Trumps head leave the state with him? Because if that thing got loose on the shores of Winnipesaukee theres no telling how much damage it could do!

In the early 90's, we were looking for a new (replacement) boat. We started in Atlantic City, because we were there on other business. Donald Trump was there for similar business, except he came with the "Trump Princess", (282 ft I think). I bought a Trump Princess polo shirt with heavy gold embroidery in the shape of a seahorse as a souvenir. After the AC boat show, we started moving up the coast stopping at marinas along the way, shopping. Loved that 34' Tollycraft. When we got to Newport, RI, we decided, unknowingly, to stay at the Goat Island Sheraton. That was Thursday, dealer night prior to the Newport Power Boat Show. Again, unknowing, I was wearing khaki shorts, boat shoes and my new "Trump Princess" shirt. Wherever we went in the hotel, we saw/heard people following and whispering. They thought we were Trump's advance crew and that he was coming to the show as was the Princess. We, of course, denied everything, which only added to the story. We didn't know then how much fun it was to be famous.

As Hillary says, "At this point, what difference does it make?"

Just a fun memory of seeing "The Donald" in AC and having a little follow on in Newport.

In a presidential sense, this is a guy who knows where he wants to go, where this country should go, and how to get there, with no BS about it.

Good to have somebody with an appreciation of boating. (I'm sure the 'Princess' had boats aboard that were 'our size'. Princess later sold to somebody n Japan for $110MM. Similar price to our boats, give or take a decimal point or three.)

From ABC News (and you know if the liberal press reported it this way it was putting the best spin on the story to help the Clinton's)

After they were criticized for taking $190,000 worth of china, flatware, rugs, televisions, sofas and other gifts with them when they left, the Clintons announced last week that they would pay for $86,000 worth of gifts, or nearly half the amount.

Their latest decision to send back $28,000 in gifts brings to $114,000 the value of items the Clintons have either decided to pay for or return.

McDaniel discussed the matter Wednesday with Betty Monkman, the White House curator, and Gary Walters, the chief usher, or executive manager of the White House.

They were reviewing the gifts the Clintons chose to keep after $28,000 worth of items were found on a list of donations the Park Service received for the 1993 White House redecoration project. The Washington Post this week quoted three people who said that they assumed the furnishings they donated for the project would stay in the White House.

“As a result of questions about the status of certain property donated to the White House during the Clinton administration, the National Park Service will accept the return of the property in question and act as a custodian of such property,” according to a statement released by the Park Service, which administers the White House as a unit of the national park system.
