Former United States President Donald Trump is already up against some big legal problems as he faces 91 felony counts in four different jurisdictions as well as a $250 million civil fraud trial in New York. But it sounds like you can add another legal issue to Trump’s business dealings.
According to a report from Raw Story, a Trump Organization golf course in California has been facing a municipal code violation for over a year and has done nothing to remedy the situation.
“Municipal officials in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., cited The Trump National Golf Club Los Angeles for a violation involving ‘grading or retaining wall without a permit’ on November 28, 2022,” Alexandria Jacobson reported for Raw Story last week.
“More than a year later, the violation is still open and active, Enyssa Sisson, administrative analyst for the Rancho Palos Verdes’ City Clerk’s Office, told Raw Story via email, with no changes in the last six months.”
Obviously, this is pretty bad news for Donald Trump as he’s already facing several other legal challenges, and it led to a lot of reactions on social media as a result.

ICK!
Trump golf course isn’t making the grade: While a code violation is a minor legal concern for Trump, the golf course code dispute is latest example of Trump’s disdain for laws that don’t suit him — and his willingness to ignore or fight against them.

Obviously, this legal issue isn’t anywhere near as serious as the 91 felony counts he’s facing stemming from his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election, but it still doesn’t look good on his ability to run his businesses and golf courses, much less a country.
