8. That's why they started calling it The Winter White House.

And yes, hurricane season begins June 1st and the weather outside (golf courses) is really unpleasant with the humidity, bugs, etc. The winter this year has been missing for most of the south so the summer like weather could easily start in April or May. Here in Pensacola our high today is headed toward high 70s and that is many hundreds of miles north of Palm Beach. So tRump probably won't spend too much time there after May.

They wanted us to start thinking in terms of tRump being in Palm Beach rather than DC...guess they were hoping we wouldn't notice it costs a bazillion dollars every time he jaunts down there. They threw up the smoke screen that he is "working" while he is there, too. Does the cost include bringing in the various people he has met with and interviewed at Mar-a-lago?
