I don't know what is funnier...
Watching all the shit flow down the hill to catch Trump
or watching all the ET members running down the hill with Trump in a cult-like chant...
we got your back.
Then again, it's a well-known fact that New York mobsters eventually move to South Florida under the facade of a better tax environment until the judicial system catches up with them.
Mafia’s traditions in South Florida date to the 1930s gambling heydays in Broward, when Meyer Lansky and his associates came south to claim a piece of the action in dozens of “carpet joints” – classy casinos that operated around Hallandale under the beneficial eye of a crooked sheriff.
“It goes back to the 1920s and Al Capone. Capone had a house on Palm Island … and that was his alibi for the 1929 St. Valentine’s Day Massacre,” said Richard Mangan, a 24-year Drug Enforcement Administration agent.
“Back in the 1940s and 1950s, Hallandale was Las Vegas Southeast,” said Mangan, who now teaches a class called “Organized Crime and the Business of Drugs” at Florida Atlantic University’s School of Criminology. “Clubs like La Boheme were operating. A made [formally inducted] mob member named Anthony “Tony” Plates would set up shop in the Diplomat Hotel during the winters, plying politicians with booze and hookers.”
The gambling generated so much cash that the gangsters suppressed their violent natures...
In more recent years, “The Teflon Don,” Gambino boss John Gotti, maintained a residence in Fort Lauderdale. So did Nicodemo “Little Nicky” Scarfo, the brutal head of a Mafia family operating in Philadelphia and Atlantic City.
Underbosses, consiglieres and soldiers from all the families are well represented, from Palm Beach Gardens to the Keys.
Simply, South Florida is also a popular destination for Chicago's rich & famous mob gangsters posing as rich businessmen. It's shocking that what is occurring today has some similarities to the 1920s - 1950s...even the wives, girlfriends, and
supporters were
stupidly naive about what really was going on behind closed doors in those business meetings.
