Trump mocked over video that shows him ordering applause at Mar-A-Lago brunch

Former president Donald Trump is facing backlash on social media after a video showed him asking people to clap for him at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

In a video shared by PatriotTakes, a website which tracks right wing media on Sunday, Mr Trump can be seen raising his hands asking a crowd seen dining to clap for him.

When the crowd starts to cheer and clap for him, Mr Trump can be seen showing a thumbs up and moving away.

Trump is at the begging for applause stage of his way-too-long exit from the public consciousness.

would waste money on joining that "club", and why would they eat there?

Do they go there in anticipation of seeing the former toddler in chief, perhaps catching his eye, or shaking his tiny hand?

It seems many wealthy people - many who've inherited their wealth - have more money than brains.
