$10,000 Tip
Trumpster Tips Waiter about 12,000%
It looks like the Donald was in a giving mood. Yeah, right. Just showing off for his bud is more like it. When the waiter came with the tab after he was done with his meal at the Buffalo Club in Santa Monica, Trump asked what his all time biggest tip was. The dude said $500. Trump merely added $10,000 to the tip line. He wouldn't take the waiters phone call to thank him.
