How Mar-a-Lago was purchased

Trump initially offered the Post foundation $28 million for the home + furnishings, which was actually above the list price of $20 million. This wikipedia article states Trump initially offered only $15 million, which is incorrect. After the Post foundation rejected his offer of $28 million, that's when he allegedly bought the beach property and threatened to put up a house in front of Mar-a-lago. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/inside-trumps-palm-beach-castle-and-his-30-year-fight-to-win-over-the-locals/2015/11/14/26c49a58-88b7-11e5-be8b-1ae2e4f50f76_story.html

However, the vanity fair article also notes that Trump did not actually buy the beachfront property until AFTER he had closed on Mar-a-lago. So there are conflicting reports of what actually happened here. Regardless, Trump's initial offer was ABOVE market value, and that should be reflected in the wikipedia article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:4808:A130:5300:FC62:22C:BE90:6D48 (talk) 21:53, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there so much space dedicated to Epstein? Seems a little off topic.

Typo on the backstory

Typo in the backstory. Says "wad" but I'm fairly sure it should be "was". Submitting on talk page since it's edit protected and I'm not a regular user/editor/contributor 72.177.93.17 (talk) 18:35, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
