Trump May Stay at His Hotel, Not Blair House, Before Inauguration
Source: NYT
WASHINGTON President-elect Donald J. Trump is considering spending his last nights as a private citizen ensconced in his new Washington hotel, rather than at Blair House as many of his predecessors have, according to people briefed on the planning.

Should he stay there, at the Trump International Hotel Washington, D.C., Mr. Trump would be joined by members of his family, a small group of aides and his most generous financial supporters, those familiar with the discussions said. They requested anonymity because the plans are not yet complete.

Exactly what Mr. Trumps accommodations there would look like is less clear. The hotels largest suite, known as the Trump Townhouse, is a 6,300-square-foot duplex with a private entrance.
Before the election, the suite was being offered as part of a five-night inaugural package for $500,000. It was not clear if the package ever sold. A hotel staff member said Friday that the entire property was fully committed for inauguration week.

(50,310 posts)Maybe he'll take his oath by the 18th hole of one of his golf courses. And hold his cabinet meetings at that nasty "restaurant" in his tower. All the while, Ivanka will be modeling her apparel and jewelry, causing an uptick in employment in China. Anything for a buck. The greatest con artists of our time now have access to the best ATM: American Taxpayer Money.

(959 posts)even the White House, do not meet the Fuehrer's standards. He is never going to sleep in the White House. It is beneath him, in his opinion. Not enough glitz. Plus too many eyes and too much scrutiny. He will avoid all of this to hide in his hidey-holes, where no one can get to him, and he can scheme and foment money making scams without censure. I look forward to the outrage that media will unleash when they realize they are marginalized to less than nothing.
