Only believe His Lardship



No bedbugs at Doral.  Not any more, anyway.  Maybe.
After Donald Trump revealed that his struggling Trump National Doral Miami resort in Florida may host the G7 summit next year, the hashtag #TrumpBedBugs began trending on Monday with thousands of Americans ridiculing the president over a bug infestation at the luxury resort in 2017.

"Doral happens to be ... only five minutes from the airport, the airport's right next door," the president told reporters. "And by the way, my people looked at 12 sites, all good, but some were two hours from the airport, some four hours."

He added: "We have a series of magnificent buildings, we call them bungalows, they each hold from 50 to 70 rooms, they have magnificent views. And what we have also is Miami."

Hours later, Twitter users began ridiculing the president's remarks by resurfacing a 2017 article about the Trump National Doral resort settling a lawsuit over biting bed bugs, making the hashtag #TrumpBedBugs trend on Monday afternoon.

The report states that the resort reached a tentative settlement with a business traveler, Eric Linder, who sued after his face, back and arms were "devoured by voracious bed bugs at the revamped resort." Linder filed the lawsuit in July 2016 after he spent a night at the location's $300 per night Jack Nicklaus-themed villa.
