Donald Trump’s relentless crusade to remake Washington D.C. in his own repulsive image now includes plans to cut down Washington DC's oldest grove of cherry trees along the Mall and eliminate the public biking path and picnic areas, all so he can build a Trump golf course on public land, using OUR tax dollars, and taking OUR spaces away from the public so that he and his pedo buddies live the high life.
Sharp-eyed photographers noticed Trump was carrying plans showing a FAR more extensive redevelopment of the golf course than federal officials told the public.
The Washington Post reports “The plans, visible in photographs taken during Trump’s visit, seem to stretch the redesigned golf course across nearly the entire East Potomac peninsula, extending play to the shoreline. The renderings do not appear to show several of the park’s best-known public amenities, including the riverside bicycle trail, the miniature golf course and Washington’s oldest grove of cherry trees.”
“It would also expand golf into roughly 50 acres of parkland now used for picnicking, fishing, cycling and other recreation.”
This needs to be stopped before it starts. Introduce legislation that prevents it now!
