Out of town pool report #2: Golf arrival Motorcade arrived at Trump International Golf Club at 9:56 a.m.. Your pooler could not spot POTUS. Pool vans peeled off at the golf club entrance and we are now holding at the library across the street. Just outside Mar-a-Lago, about a dozen demonstrators were gathered to express opposition to restrictions on e-cigarette flavors. They held signs that read "Unicorn Vomit is Harmless" and "PMTA Will Kill Small Businesses," references to a vape flavor and an FDA rule, respectively. |

Out of town pool report #4: MAL return The motorcade arrived back at Mar-a-Lago at 3:21 p.m. after an uneventful drive and press vans peeled off. Dozens of demonstrators had gathered on the sidewalks near the entryway to the property. The pro-flavored vape group, including the man with the "Unicorn vomit is harmless" sign and another man with a sign reading "green apple saved my life," were on one side of the road. Across the street from them were a few dozen Trump supporters who waved flags and held cardboard cut-outs of the president. One man held a black poster that had the word "landslide" written in white. |
