the lair of a James Bond villain, but it is the lair of an actual villain.

(37,161 posts)9. It sounds like what some movie Executive decides to name one...
...if they really don't understand the nuances that make those sorts of names cool/ominous.
Y'know, like if a Bond villain lair has a name with two or three meanings, but the exec only understands one and is completely ignorant of the others.
So better to say Mar-A-Lago has a name like a knock-off imitation Bond villain lair.
To go with Trump's entire cheap-knock-off vibe.
