The Hill reports:
Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in New Jersey is bashing local health authorities after it was flagged for 18 health violations following an early May inspection. The Somerset County Department of Health in its food inspection report from May 6 faulted the club, saying there was not proper separation of raw meats from ready-to-eat foods, which made products susceptible to contamination.
It also noted that food contact surfaces were not properly cleaned and sanitized. The club argued the health report was politically motivated. “Never before have we witnessed such visceral hostility from the health department. This is clearly nothing more than a politically motivated attack,” David Schutzenhofer, general manager of Trump National Bedminster, said in a statement to The Hill.
From my earlier report:
The Somerset County Department of Health inspected Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster on May 6, according to the report, which is publicly available online. The club received a score of 32 out of a 100 possible points, with the inspector documenting 18 violations—nine of which were deemed critical, meaning they “may result in an unacceptable health risk.”
The club was out of compliance with all three requirements in the “food protected from contamination” category, with violations including expired milk, raw meat stored improperly and a dishwasher that may not reach the required temperature.
Of the roughly 115 retail food establishments inspected in Somerset County in May, Trump’s club received the lowest score—32 out of 100. All but one other venue scored 60 or higher, according to a county records search.
