Over the weekend, President Donald Trump returned to Florida for the first time since being sworn in last Monday. Arriving at Miami International Airport on Saturday night, he headed directly to his own Trump National Doral Miami, a golf club and resort located in Miami-Dade County.
Trump is set to lead the Republican congressional conference from Monday through Wednesday. This event will see the attendance of several high-profile Republican lawmakers, including Cuban-American Carlos Giménez.
His arrival in Florida galvanized his supporters, who gathered in Doral to demonstrate their backing, all under tight security measures, as reported by CBC News. The last time Trump visited Florida was shortly after the elections, when he stayed at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach.
In recent days, Trump has traveled to areas in North Carolina and California that were hit by Hurricane Helene last year and the recent wildfires, respectively. His schedule has been packed since returning to the White House.
This week, the Florida Legislature is expected to hold a special session focused on immigration issues.
