I went to Donald J Trump State Park an hour north of NYC. Nobody knows it& #39;s there because it isn& #39;t a real park. It& #39;s barren land Trump bought for $2.75 M hoping to build a golf course. When it failed, he donated it to NY State—claiming it was worth $100 M—for a huge tax writeoff.
It& #39;s unclear the exact amount Trump claimed on his tax return, though Trump& #39;s 2016 campaign said the land was worth $26.1 million. It& #39;s a joke. There is literally nothing on the property. This is the "parking lot." The rest is just overgrown bushes and a single empty field.
It& #39;s tricky to find Donald J. Trump State Park because there are few signs pointing to it—almost as if the state doesn& #39;t want to admit it exists. This also makes it strangely peaceful. A good place to go for a walk and think about how the US President committed massive tax fraud.
