Political Factoid
Since he became president,
Donald Trump has not
been photographed in or
on a boat even though he
lives on the east coast of
Florida where most people
of his wealth have boats
and hold and attend events
on boats.
Trump doesn’t even particularly
like boats. "I'm not into them,"
he says with a shrug, "I've been
on friends' boats before and
couldn't get off fast enough."

Actually, Trump did buy a multi-million
yacht in 1989 for which he paid
$27 million* plus 30% more for an
expensive retrofit -- only to be forced
to sell it for $20 million when he got
mired in debt in the 1990's.
What a successful
narcissistic businessman

Not because he liked them. He didn't.
He just wanted a status symbol and
thought he was getting a great deal
(boat that had cost $50 million to build).
