My first thought when I read that was something like this:
But then I heard him make his case. Trump explained:
I built the Mar-a-Lago club. Totally open to everybody. A club that frankly set a new standard — a new standard in clubs and a new standard in Palm Beach. And I’ve gotten great credit for it. That is totally open to everybody.
Nailed it.
To paraphrase Vizzini from The Princess Bride: Jesus? Lincoln? King? Losers. I built an exclusive club in Florida. Nobody does equality like Trump!
This guy won’t embarrass you as president. Not at all.
