In a recent podcast, journalist Michael Moore relates how he crashed a social event a few years ago at Mar-a-Lago, www.michaelmoore.com/...In a fascinating, no make that a horrifying story, Moore recounts the almost total lack of security at the place. And this was after Trump had been elected in 2016 and had secret service protection. Even though he had no clearance or formal invitation whatsoever, he was able to go in and walk the grounds for an extended period of time. And this happened even when he had a recording device on him that was visible.

If you listen to the lengthy podcast, he was most surprised by the reception he received. He thought that because of his well-known, left-wing views, he would be treated like a pariah. But instead, he was treated like a celebrity. Club guests went up to him and shook his hand and offered to go golfing with him. He speculates that since most of the people at the club were famous, they just saw him as a fellow celebrity.

In any case, his story reinforces the fact that the resort had pathetic security measures.
