Before he was president, Trump bought an estate in West Palm Beach, Florida. He put up a 80 foot flag pole and flew a 375 sq ft US flag on it. The City Council told him that he could only have a 30 foot pole but he refused to take it down. They told him they would fine him $1250 a day until he took it down. He said fine, that's a chump change. When the fine reached $120,000 he went to the the city council and made a deal. He would lower the flag to a 50 foot pole if he could donate the $120,000 to the Veterans Affairs, to which they agreed. He took 80 foot pole down and a landscape company came in and bould a 30 foot hill where the pole was and put up a 50 foot pole. Lol... That's why we love the guy.
