Virginia Giuffre - Wikipedia excerpt: "In mid-2000,[27][28] Giuffre met Ghislaine Maxwell when working as a spa attendant at Donald Trump's private Mar-a-Lago club while reading a book about massage therapy.[21] Maxwell, a British socialite and daughter of the late media tycoon Robert Maxwell, approached Giuffre, noted the book that she was reading, inquired about her interest in massage, and offered her a potential job working for Epstein as a traveling masseuse with the assurance that no experience was necessary.[21] When Giuffre arrived at Epstein's Palm Beach home, she says he was naked lying down and Maxwell told her how to massage him. "They seemed like nice people so I trusted them, and I told them I'd had a really hard time in my life up until then—I'd been a runaway, I'd been sexually abused, physically abused. ... That was the worst thing I could have told them because now they knew how vulnerable I was", Giuffre stated.[22] Giuffre stated that after Maxwell introduced her to Jeffrey Epstein, the two quickly began grooming her to provide sexual services under the guise that she was to be trained as a professional massage therapist.[29]"
Six months in, young people have soured on Trump's job handling — CBS News analysis excerpt: "And majorities feel the Trump administration is focusing too much on tariffs (72%), deportations (64%), and ending DEI programs (55%). These shares have all grown significantly over time. By contrast, seven in 10 say the administration isn't focusing enough on lowering prices, which was a key campaign issue."
Trump's deportations and tariffs are expected to raise prices, not lower them. Trump's voters were hoping for lower prices.

Las Vegas's tipped workers say income fell by more than half excerpt: Las Vegas workers have seen their income from tips plunge by as much as 50% — despite the recently passed no tax on tips law — as tourism to Sin City takes a hit from President Trump’s global trade war. “No tax on tips, that’s a rad thing. But it doesn’t really do us much good if there isn’t any people to get tips from,” Charlie Mungo, a 36-year-old tattoo artist in downtown Las Vegas, told the Wall Street Journal. Mungo said he has made about $1,500 a month in recent months. He added that Canadian customers, who made up about 30% of his clientele, have vanished.
Canadian tourists in the U.S. have dwindled. All Trump did was threaten to take over their country by imposing high tariffs on them so that they can become, in Trump's words, the cherished 51st state of the U.S.
May 14, 2025 U.S Economy Set To Lose $12.5BN In International Traveler Spend this year U.S. Stands Alone Among 184 Economies to See Decline
Not to fear. Trump says his $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts won't even be noticed. He says it was all waste and fraud.

All they have to do is go down on their knees and succumb to Trump's coercion. Then Trump will that say they are his most beloved, cherished tourists.
Commander-in-Cheat. Viral video showing Trump in Scotland leads to golf cheating accusations excerpt: This is not the first time the president has been accused of cheating at golf. In fact, sportswriter Rick Reilly wrote a whole book about it in 2019: "Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump." "Trump doesn’t just cheat at golf," Reilly wrote. "He throws it, boots it, and moves it. He lies about his lies. He fudges and foozles and fluffs. At Winged Foot, where Trump is a member, the caddies got so used to seeing him kick his ball back onto the fairway they came up with a nickname for him: 'Pele.'” Another Winged Foot member who played with Trump said that Trump would cheat because he thought he was being cheated by other players, too, according to an excerpt from the book as reported by For the Win. Trump often boasts about his golf tournament victories, even when his win seems impossible. He once said he won a club championship when he didn't play the first round. In another instance, he said he won an event with a score lower than many LIV golf pros.
Trump has been complaining about Obama's golf outings. Trump met with dignitaries in Scotland to discuss his trade war and promote his new golf course. Earlier in his second term, Trump went on a self-promotional business bonanza tour through the Middle East to enrich himself. He was given a jet from Qatar to be used as Air Force One and was awarded a new Trump golf resort to be built in Qatar as part of a $3 billion deal.
All the big name golfers who want to be part of Trump's big money go along with him and make it sound like he won fairly.
