TRENTON, NJ – It was part of the plan to attack former U.S. President Trump between New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, Attorney General Matt Platkin, and the Democrat Party. Today, they succeeded in using their official powers to deny two golf courses owned by the former President from selling liquor.

The New Jersey Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control has not renewed the liquor licenses for two golf clubs owned by former President Donald Trump, as confirmed by a spokesperson from the state’s Office of Attorney General.

Trump has described the legal attacks on him by local and state governments as ‘lawfare’.

The affected facilities are Trump National Golf Club in Colts Neck and Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster. The licenses at these locations expired on Sunday, but the clubs can continue to serve alcohol under an interim permit until a hearing is scheduled. That interim approval expires on July 19th.

Meanwhile, Trump National Golf Club Philadelphia in Pine Hill has successfully renewed its plenary consumption license on June 3, as per an ABC spokesperson.
