“Trump” has only posted on Truth Social twice today and they were obviously not written by him. He hasn’t spoken publicly in 5 days.
Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf club recently got slapped with 18 health violations and the lowest health grade in the entire county — scoring a 32 out of 100. Critical food safety risks, no soap at sinks, a household microwave in the kitchen, and more.
The phrase "Rose Garden strategy" refers to staying inside or on the grounds of the White House, as opposed to traveling throughout the country.
"Trump is about to pave over the grass in the Rose Garden so his guests don't get their shoes wet”
Insiders told The New York Times in February that Trump and his wife, Melania, intend to pave over the grass in the Rose Garden to mimic their marble-slabbed surfaces at Mar-a-Lago.
Recently, President Donald Trump announced his intentions to alter elements of the White House’s exterior, including the historic White House Rose Garden. Plans include ripping up the plot’s grass and putting in hardscape—possibly limestone—for a patio and some hardwood floors for dancing, reports The New York Times.
The president later explained in an interview with Fox’s Laura Ingraham that he’s looking to give the space “a gorgeous stone” patio experience. “You know, we use [the Rose Garden] for press conferences, and it doesn’t work because the people fall…” he said, citing the wet terrain and “women with the high heels, it just didn’t work.” He expressed that “the roses stay…. It’s just the center section” of the garden that could get an overhaul. The Times reports that the makeover will see the space transformed “to resemble a patio like the one he has at Mar-a-Lago.” According to a CNN piece published on March 16, work on a revamped Rose Garden could begin within weeks, and the president personally reviewed the plans recently with White House curators.
Mar-a-Lago style can be thought of as a particular look typically found in high-end Florida estates and private golf clubs. “It’s a blend of Mediterranean revival with hints of Palm Beach, drenched in gold finishes, grand chandeliers, patterned floors, heavy drapery, and plenty of oversized everything,” says Angie Kreller, an interior designer at Yabby. For her, the Mar-a-Lago aesthetic leans maximalist and embraces the theatrical, and while it has historical European influences, it is “mashed together in a way that feels more about impact than restraint,” she adds.
