Donald Trump will spend the majority of his weekends at Mar-a-Lago, the Winter White House. Donald Trump will not be working full-time in Washington, DC, but will instead be spending a significant amount of time at Mar-a-Lago, also known as the "Winter White House," as he did the previous time, as quoted in a report by Page Six.

Why does Trump spend weekends at Mar-a-Lago?

As a matter of fact, according to a report, the president frequently travels to Palm Beach on the weekends to play golf and host in his preferred location. He enjoys his time in Palm Beach. Golf is something he enjoys playing. The "Winter White House" is how it will be set up. The source claims that he prefers to meet world leaders and people at Mar-A-Lago.

They claim that he has always been a man who conducts business on the golf course. This is typical because the President did much the same during his first term.


Based on pool reports, public schedules, and public appearances, CNN reported in 2020, three years into his term, that Trump had spent 307 days at golf clubs and 418 visits to Trump-branded properties. He even teed up with Shinzo Abe, the prime minister of Japan, in 2017. But according to earlier reports, he intended to cut back on his golfing during his second term.

Trump intended to focus on the country more than his handicap, according to a source who spoke to Page Six in November, but it wouldn't be no golf.

They had informed us that he couldn't play golf with his usual friends and club members. There will be sporadic games with [Sen.] Lindsey Graham or Elon Musk. But he's always thinking about the nation and its past. His friends have just been informed that their weekly games will not take place until the nation gets back on track.

He appears to have gotten ahead of himself with that plan. An apparent assassination attempt near one of Trump's courses in September resulted in the arrest of a man. The real estate tycoon owns eighteen golf properties across the globe.
