He doesn't have enough.

Wonder if he'll keep using it as a club? I also wonder why they don't go to that house they own in upstate NY.

... because he can't handle being seen as a loser - even in front of his still supportive fans.

Those who can afford memberships there are successful, well-monied people. Trump is now a known LOSER, steeped in debt and facing prosecution in NY.

There is no reason for anyone to kiss his ass in order to curry political favour. Now he's just another has-been, who would be refused a membership if he didn't own the place.
