Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Monday, December 08, 2025

For months, the Trump administration has been accusing its political enemies of mortgage fraud for claiming more than one primary residence. President Donald Trump branded one foe who did so "deceitful and potentially criminal." He called another "CROOKED" on Truth Social and pushed the attorney general to take action. But years earlier, Trump did the very thing he's accusing his enemies of, records show. In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a "Bermuda style" home in Palm Beach, Florida, pledging that it would be his principal residence. Just seven weeks later, he got another mortgage for a seven-bedroom, marble-floored neighboring property, attesting that it too would be his principal residence. In reality, Trump, then a New Yorker, does not appear to have ever lived in either home, let alone used them as a principal residence.

Still waiting and hoping for this grand hypocrite to drop dead.
