Trump played golf with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe last weekend and also hit the links the weekend prior, both times at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump has referred to his resort as the “Winter White House” and “Southern White House.” After Trump took office, Mar-a-Lago doubled membership rates to $200,000 a year.

Throughout former President Barack Obama’s eight years in the White House, Trump criticized him for taking breaks from his work to go on vacation and play golf.
