If you don't care, perhaps you would like to create a Benedict Arnold park or perhaps an Adolf Hitler park in your town.
The insurrectionists are your Democrats who tried to impeach him twice without justification.

And the Capitol Hill protest wouldn’t have happened if not for your shady Democrat election fixing.

A little history.....he donated it AFTER it was found to be too unstable and swampy (oh, the irony) to build his golf courses on like he wanted. For the tax breaks.


And have you SEEN this "park"? It's at best, an overrun bramble with zero maintenance. Honestly, Truymp should WANT his name off it.

It would be like if you walked away from your house and told the bank you donated a million dollar home --- when it was valued at 500K......
The state and federal tax authorities both accepted that number at the time.

Do you have any support for your claim that it wasn't worth 26mil?

The only thing this does is give credence to claims that the various NYC etc. investigations of Trump after decades living there, but only after he joined politics on the OTHER side are indeed politically motivated.

I never voted for the guy but I find it a little chilling how some of you are 100% down to use the power of the state to attack political rivals.

P.S. The piles of 1 and 5 star reviews on the park for political reasons are just pathetic to see.

So this is your excuse to cope. The hatred runs deep with all leftists.
If anyone had been willing to pay 1/20th of Trump’s stated value, he would have sold it.

I strongly suggest you get someone else in your family to do your taxes.

Bigotry? No. Trump is the bigot and NYS doesn't want a park named after him. End of story.
But they (we) want the Tappan Zee bridge to now be the Governor Mario Cuomo Bridge.
