I am presently in Atlantic City's immediate neighboring town,

Ventnor, am off tomorrow and will be in attendance at the demolition of Trump Plaza, formerly owned by you know who. I will take video and post it here when I can. I will be going down to the beach early south of the edifice and will walk along the shoreline until I’m stopped.

You know...about Trump: it is hard to believe that that old piece of shit....was once a YOUNG piece of shit.

You're right next to Seaside. Lots of shopping. Not too far from other shore destinations.

The main downside is the stupid jughandles! Too many jughandles!

Oh, I love the Freehold Mall!

take a few pics of whatever was known as Trump's Marina ... always heard about it, never knew what it meant.

If you run into any hotel workers, ask about 'Donald's Slop Shop'. See if they know what you mean.

I read about the how mayor had planned to auction off the right to push the button that would take it down, with proceeds going to Boys and Girls Club of AC.

Blowing up buildings here in Vegas was a yearly ritual for a while when we were getting rid of the old casinos to build new ones. Can't wait to see this one go down.

....on all the networks, too.

A shame it couldn't have happened at noon on January 20, or later that night when the White House fireworks went off.

A fitting end to the trump era.

I remember even the Republicans in her family were not fans of Trump back in the mid to late 90s.
