Gold Coast Mayor claims he had dinner with Trump, but the only thing that actually showed up was the bill.
Gold Coast Mayor’s imaginary Mar-a-Lago dinner
Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate spent nearly $33,000 of ratepayer funds on an international trip that included a stop in Florida. Tate publicly claimed he shared a meal and wine with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, but White House records show no such dinner occurred. The proposed Gold Coast Trump Tower project associated with the trip collapsed within three months.
