This is the only part of the motorcade worth watching -

30. I doubt Trump even knows how to drive. He's always had chauffeurs.

32. I take that as a fact.

BEDMINSTER, N.J. ― As Donald Trump the president tees off Thursday morning for another round on his golf vacation, Donald Trump the goatherd continues to enjoy a tax break likely worth $88,000 annually from the “farm” exemption his tiny flock helps him keep.

According to his golf course’s latest filing with Bedminster Township to justify its “farmland assessment” tax break, Trump maintains eight goats and farms hay on 113.2 acres. Another 70.6 acres of adjacent woods are also set aside as agricultural, so that a total of 183.8 of the golf resort’s 514 acres are taxed at a much lower rate ― just over $6 an acre, rather than $462.

A HuffPost analysis of the taxes paid by the various tracts that make up Trump National Golf Club Bedminster shows that Trump is paying $88,067 less in property taxes in 2019 than he would have had those acres been taxed at the average rate of the land in the remainder of the golf resort.

“Looks like Trump is fleecing taxpayers yet again,” said Robert Weissman, president of the liberal watchdog group Public Citizen. “What’s now become very clear is that a very substantial portion of the Trump fortune is due to tax evasion, including his evasion of taxes on his daddy’s wealth.”

8. Thank you! The Golden Fleece sums up dip's sense of patriotism.

Traitor Don does whatever it takes to skip out on the rich man's only real obligation in our democracy: pay a fair share in taxes.

6. Poor Trump. He was having a really bad day. nt

7. Are those the goats he uses to save millions of dollars in taxes

by pretending that his Bedminster estate is a "farm"?

"How Trump used goats to cut millions of dollars off his local property taxes, and paid just $700 last year
....
The roaming ruminants allow the twice-impeached former president to claim New Jersey's farmland assessment reduction - a tax-shaving strategy that's likely saved the businessman-turned-politician more than $3 million since the club opened in 2004.
That means if the farm were taxed on par with the golf course, he'd be on the hook for approximately $199,000 more per year over the past two decades. That's millions in lost revenue the town of 8,300 people could have put towards improving roads, schools, or the beloved local library.

The farmland tax reduction is just one of the many ways Trump has been known to shave the cost of running his businesses, including in Bedminster where locals would like to forget their most infamous neighbor.

According to The Washington Post, Trump's company secretly hired unauthorized Costa Rican workers to shape his suburban retreat for a fraction of what he would have had to pay unionized locals."... .(more)

14. OH MY GOD, THE PROPHECY IS TRUE!!!! From my June 2021 self-authored satire piece here at DU:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215488295

That was not the only idea that Trump's staffers ultimately decided against.

"We briefly thought about having goats with Trump flags mounted to them constantly roaming the Bedminister grounds," the Trump staffer said. "So, yes, that's right. Goat Parades. However, the goats we ordered for this project turned out to be...well, let's just say, not so cooperative."

"Basically, it was a massive, unruly goat orgy," he noted. "It detracted from the true MAGA spirit that we thought would best delight Donald's whims and fancies. And isn't that what should really matter?"

For what it's worth, when I wrote that, I actually had zero clue that there were actually goats wandering around at Bedminster.
