FLASHBACK: Trump took $17 million payout for hurricane damage that reportedly only cost $3,000
As Hurricane Harvey bears down on Texas, some are recalling that Donald Trump claimed that a hurricane damaged his private Mar-a-Lago club in 2005, but investigators found little evidence to back up the assertions.
LawNewz flashed back to the 2005 revelation in a Monday report about Trump’s $17 million insurance claim.
According to an investigation by the Associated Press in 2016, there was “little evidence of such large-scale damage” at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump claimed in a 2007 deposition that the damage was widespread: “Landscaping, roofing, walls, painting, leaks, artwork in the — you know, the great tapestries, tiles, Spanish tiles, the beach, the erosion.”
“It’s still not what it was,” he said.
