Description
The inside story of how President Donald Trump became king of Palm Beach, and how Palm Beach, and the resort Mar-a-Lago, continue to be his spiritual home even as president.
Description
Mar-A-Lago, in Palm Beach Florida, is one of the greatest mansions ever built in the United States-- and the place where Trump learned the techniques that took him all the way to the White House. Leamer examines how Trump bought a property now valued by some at as much as $500,000,000 for less than three thousand dollars of his own money; how he joined forces with the National Enquirer, which was headquartered nearby; and what transpires behind the gates of Mar-A-Lago when President Trump and assorted D.C. power players fly down each weekend. -- adapted from jacket
