Trump purchased Doral in 2012 and poured $250 million into renovations of the hotel and golf courses, including the famed “Blue Monster.” Trump told Hannity about the move to Mexico City and added, “by the way, I hope they have kidnapping insurance.”
On Wednesday, Trump voiced his displeasure for the PGA Tour’s decision.
“It is a sad day for Miami, the United States and the game of golf, to have the PGA Tour consider moving the World Golf Championships, which has been hosted in Miami for the last 55 years, to Mexico,” Trump said in a statement. “No different than Nabisco, Carrier and so many other American companies, the PGA Tour has put profit ahead of thousands of American jobs, millions of dollars in revenue for local communities and charities and the enjoyment of hundreds of thousands of fans who make the tournament an annual tradition. This decision only further embodies the very reason I am running for President of the United States.”
Good save!
