[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He will basically rule from Mar-a-lago and expect everyone to come there.

He is an old man and hates the cold.

this doesn't mean he is relocating the entire government to mar-a-lago  :roll:   It's an RE agent article fluffing up FL.  Biden managed to spend a good chunk of his time in his DE beach house too, nobody called it a "second white house".

Also would be hypocritical given Palm Beach is one of the most expensive enclaves in the entire country which makes DC look like rural Louisiana in terms of prices.   This would just give an excuse to his opponents to "drain the swamp" of the Palm Beach, political leverage to stroke growing discontent from working class.  Ironically also resplendent with the infamous Epstein activity..  A low hanging fruit. [/quote]

Mar a Lago was built to serve as the second White House.  That's just a fact.

"Mar-a-Lago was built for the businesswoman and socialite Marjorie Merriweather Post between 1924 and 1927, during the Florida land boom. At the time of her death in 1973, Post bequeathed the property to the National Park Service,[6] hoping it could be used for state visits or as a Winter White House. However, because the costs of maintaining the property exceeded the funds provided by Post, and because it was difficult to secure the facility,[a] the property was returned to the Post Foundation by act of Congress 96-586 on 23 December 1980.[7][8]"

Palm Beach is an incredibly wealthy enclave.  But just over the bridge is West Palm Beach and it is not.  The support functions would be located there.  People could live from Jupiter in the north to Ft. Lauderdale in the south.  Most would be living west of 95 and the turnpike.  So he could relocate there pretty easily.[/quote]
