It was some time ago, talking decades, that a golf tournament had to be pulled from a major club because the club either did not have any black members or had a rule that there would not be any black members. Within about two weeks golf clubs all over the United States pulled aside the highest-ranking black executive officers at major corporations to grant them memberships, including Augusta National, the most famous club of all.
Let’s face it, there is likely no game that is whiter than golf, even hockey is starting to reflect the diversity, at least in Canada. So, even though the greatest player to ever play the game, Tiger Woods is black, it’s not surprising that Mar-a-Lago would not have…
Wait, Mar-a-Lago is not a golf club, it’s a social club, with ballrooms, a pool, beach access (though you’ll never see Trump on the beach) and yet people swear that they’ve never seen a black person at Mar-a-Lago.
There are a lot of people one won’t see at Mar-a-Lago, including 99% of the writers in this world because the annual dues are over six figures. Still, there are a lot of wealthy black people in South Florida… there must be… Oh! We found it, we found a picture with plenty of black people at Mar-a-Lago;
Anyone who says they never see black people at Mar-a-Lago is lying. pic.twitter.com/r1iBDtRkDg [1]

Still. Something seems off. We went to Twitter for answers:
“I am the least racist you know” Trump said as he showed his hired help

The serving staff do not exist.. they are much like furniture in Mar A Lago.
The blend into the background and are ignored.
Furniture doesn't speak up or voice concerns, neither do any of the staff if they want to continue working… for below minimum wage.— Mark (@Majestik12) January 27, 2022 [4]
It’s almost like an old, southern plantation.
I hate this so much.

Altered to black-and-white, it almost looks like a screenshot from a 1935 B-movie. pic.twitter.com/3nDEoseMJm [9]

It’s hard to tell what year this pic was taken… it could be this week, or it could be 200 years ago…
Oh wait, I see it now. The paid escort with all the plastic surgery gave it away.

I hear the black workers are treated great and have quarters behind the building that they are locked in at night. 😁
