Trust me, foreigners do not get better service than Bahamians at the hands of the government — often worse, in fact. The sadistic woman who runs Road Traffic at Governor’s Harbour delights in putting foreigners through the grinder, while half the Bahamians’ cars are running on bald tires and one headlight. But I sadly agree with much of what you say.
On Eleuthera, the airport at Rock Sound is propped up purely for political purposes. It would be less than an hour’s drive for those people to fly out of Governor’s Harbour. Even in the U.S., most people have a drive longer than that — often *far* longer — to get to an airport. The resorts in the south that once supported Rock Sound airport have long since died. Pure politics.
Why is it that this fellow could go to the trouble to get a stylish hairdo and hip clothing and gold jewelry, but not bother to get his papers straight like his sisters did?

No, it is more likely he did not want to make them “famous” by giving mouth to their name in the newspaper.

It’s Donald J. Trump, not Donald S. Trump. He says the “J” stands for “Jenius.”
