An article published on X claims that Fox News reported that former U.S. President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club had received a foreclosure notice from Deutsche Bank. The article states that a user on X with the handle @PatMaguire10 posted on Twitter, saying that Fox News had reported the foreclosure notice. However, upon checking @PatMaguire10’s X bio, it was discovered that the account posts “parody” content, indicating that the claim is not true. There is no public record of a foreclosure of Mar-a-Lago taking place or scheduled to happen in the future.
The article also provides some background information on the subject. It mentions that on the same day as the post was created, Trump’s legal team requested a mistrial in a civil fraud trial against him in New York. The trial had previously featured testimony from a retired Deutsche Bank executive, Nicholas Haigh, regarding the bank’s loan to Trump for the purchase of the Trump National Doral property in Miami in 2011.
Regarding Mar-a-Lago, the article references a report from the Miami Herald in August 2022, which stated that Trump had received a loan from Chase Manhattan Bank, not Deutsche Bank, for the purchase of the property.
In conclusion, the claim that Fox News reported a foreclosure notice on Mar-a-Lago from Deutsche Bank is false. The source of the claim was a parody account on X, and there is no evidence to support the foreclosure notice.
