Who now owns the lot? Do the investors own it, or is the screwing of the investors built into that part of the design as well? If the investors indeed
do own it, they could sub-divide the land into 188 lots and distribute it among themselves or hold a lottery amongst themselves to distribute a lesser
number of decent sized lots on the property. One thing is for sure, the name Trump should forever be associated with that piece of real estate -
whatever it does or does not become. Where did the $32 million go anyway? Is there any accountability at all? |
The site was owned by a Mexico City family. It had no value at all until Trump came along. It was not considered suitable for building. The Trump
project never even got past the environmental approval process to pull the building permits. They would have had to pump every bit of wastewaster
uphill to the treatment plant on the other side of the cuota.

That can't possibly be true. The following quote and photo was taken from one of the Trump sales websites: "TRUMP OCEAN RESORT · BAJA, MEXICO Situated
on 17 acres of pristine land, overlooking the Pacific and the Coronado Islands, Trump Ocean Resort is North Baja 's first condo/hotel luxury resort."

I'd say that this lady owes society for her involvement in the scam. She can begin to repay by giving her investors her proceeds from a Penthouse
magazine photo spread.

Well, looking ahead, it seems we Baja travelers will have several new landmarks to remind us not to stop north of Ensenada...massive rotting vacant
towers...monuments to greed and ego. It would be nice to see Trump's name (semi) permanently emblazoned on one of the vacant Hi rises, I saw on my
drives south and north. I suppose they will provide nice roosting aqnd nesting places for birds and launching places for Mexican fireworks, perhaps
even party sites for vacationing juvenile North Americano's. All is not lost, there is a lesson and some useful wildlife environment created.
As for the lost investments, well, I am not particularly worried. I'm sure the Donald is holding enough of the cash to stay comfortable as well. All
negative experiences have some potential to become a lesson. I expect the Nomads are more likely to learn from this than most.

I'm suprised our government has offered poor Trump a bailout for all of his losses! Lord knows he needs one more than the rst of us.

I'd buy anything she was selling! What is she selling?
