Local Outrage at Trump Winged Foot Gala Goes National

[douglas9]

Larchmont resident Jenny Geer may see a security detail of cars snaking its way past her house heading to the nearby Winged Foot Golf course next Wednesday, August 4. Former President Donald Trump will be chauffeured in one of those cars to a planned gala in his honor.

“This is really in my back yard,” said Geer, a grass-roots organizer and co-leader of Mamaroneck Larchmont Indivisible, a national activist organization. “The people in our group are very upset about this, especially since the House Select Committee is holding hearings on the January 6th insurrection.”

A recent story on NBC News reported that “quiet plans” were being made for a Trump tribute banquet at the prestigious Winged Foot club and golf course. In the article, Winged Foot members who strongly resented the event anonymously voiced their opposition. Apparently, efforts to have the banquet canceled have failed.

The Examiner reached out to club member Ted Virtue, who is hosting the gala. Virtue, a long-time Trump supporter, is CEO of MidOcean Partners, a New York-based private equity investment firm. According to the company’s public relations firm, Virtue declined to comment on next week’s gala.
