    Golfers who ended their memberships at Trump National Doral after President Trump's election have yet to get their deposits back, the Miami Herald reported Thursday.

    Two former members told the outlet that they were no longer willing to write Trump checks after his election. Another quit in December after the Miami club became too political.

    All three of those former members are now on a waiting list to get their deposits back — ranging from $10,500 to $19,000 — with 265 other people.

    In order to move up the list by one spot, four new golf members need to join Doral, according to the membership terms.

    As far as Doral I don't think it has a residential component. It's just a club where too many people want to get out and not enough want to join. (clearly too difficult a concept for some ITT to understand)
    I remember the late '80's as being a golf boom. There's a lot of once very nice semi private (misnomer?) clubs that went under or now look like munis with minimal maintenance.
    The N.O. PGA tournament is now played on a lush TPC course and even that is a bargain if you pay yearly membership dues. Of course they had the sense to not build houses on it.

    Have you ever played Half Moon Bay? I did in the late '80's and remembered it as being a jewel. Played it again about ten yrs ago. Pfffft! Houses on it of course.

    Haha, I have played Half Moon Bay. Played it multiple times actually. I assume that Ritz Carlton was on it when you played? They make you grab ankles with the green fees but there is amazing natural beauty there.

    What about these Trump golf club members?



    Oh wait.
    Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”

    Absurdity; a sure sign of the last desperate refuge for liars, fools and ignorance; and those who have lost their arguments.
