...Vanilla Ice to pitch Trump family on putting presidential library on site of trailer park


Real estate broker taps Vanilla Ice to pitch Trump family on putting presidential library on site of trailer park: report
By Aris Folley - 12/22/19 02:06 PM EST


A real estate broker and supporter of President Trump in Palm Beach County, Fla., wants the president to make the site of a local trailer park the home of the Trump presidential library, the Palm Beach Post reports.

According to the publication, the broker, James Arena, said he enlisted Vanilla Ice, a mutual associate he said he and Trump’s family share, to pitch the idea.

“Vanilla Ice ran it by Donald Jr.,” Arena told the newspaper. “He called me back and said, ‘Man, I think they’re really into it.’”


Arena is proposing Trump buy Briny Breezes, a town in Palm Beach County that reportedly spans 43 acres and consists primarily of mobile homes, for $1 billion.

Seems like a match made in heaven.

Failed D grade 'celeb'.

It's a perfect fit.

... for housing all the books Trump has read.

Hell, a phone booth would be too big.

On one of those HGTV type house rehab shows a couple of years ago. He and his crew rehabbed derelict mansions in Florida. I was shocked that they actually did a very good job and the finished homes were beautiful. I think the home improvement business is his livelihood now. Maybe he wants the library on that site so he can rehab it after it’s submerged by seawater or blown to bits from a hurricane.

His skill set would fit right in. Lots of bling, but no beauty or style.

So that lack of books or content of any kind shouldn't matter - golden statuary can take up the empty spaces.

. . . and 66.4% are age 65 or older.

And, as noted, it's literally right on the ocean, meaning it will go under relatively quickly.

I couldn't come up with a better site for Shitstain's library (other than Moscow) if I worked on it for a month.
