    Now wait one second, you want to get the dangerous people out of the US but you can’t keep them out of Mar-a-Lago when hosting foreign dignitaries?  What the hell is the vetting process to get inside Mar-a-Lago anyway, a couple hundred buck donation? PB/TK

    Man fired from Trump flying role over battery charge appears at Mar-a-Lago – Jon Swaine Saturday 11 February 2017

    A man who was fired from his job as a pilot on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, after the Guardian revealed that he was charged with a violent crime, was this weekend at the president’s estate in Florida, claiming to be part of his security team.

    Vincent Caldara, who was accused of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, was at the US president’s private resort, Mar-a-Lago, where Trump is hosting the Japanese prime minister, Shinzo Abe. Caldara was also present as the president and Abe played golf at Trump’s private club in Jupiter on Saturday.

    The exact nature of Caldara’s responsibilities was unclear. He appeared to be a member of a team of local Republicans voluntarily assisting with the president’s visit, each of whom was wearing lanyards featuring a White House seal. Caldara did not respond to an email seeking comment.

    However, the 56-year-old former New York police officer, who was also chairman of the Trump campaign’s “Florida law enforcement coalition”, suggested publicly that he was helping to provide security for Trump.

    In one post to Facebook, Caldara wrote: “Welcome home, Mr President! Thank you for the weekend invitation. My team and I will keep you secure.”

    In another, shortly before the president’s golf outing, he wrote: “We’ve got you covered.”
