白宫不再是特朗普的唯一（讲解版）

Trump has spent one out of every five minutes of his presidency in Palm Beach

Before hosting the annual Easter Egg Roll on the South Lawn of the White House on Monday, President Trump had another traditional Easter event to attend: theannualEaster egg hunt at Mar-a-Lago, his resort in Palm Beach, Fla. On Sunday, the president and first lady Melania Trump attended the private event at the club while the reporterassignedto cover the president for the White House press corps waited in the parking lot. (The onlyindicationof who attended was offered by the cars that arrived for the event: “a cavalcade of luxury vehicles, including Rolls Royce, Bentley, Ferrari, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, BMW, Porsche,Land Rover, Jaguar, Tesla, and Cadillac,” according to the pool reporter.)

Why was Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Sunday? Quite simply, because he’s usually there on the weekend. On seven of the 13 weekend she has been president, he has spent time at the resort, usuallyslipping awayfrom Mar-a-Lago to head to one of his nearby golf courses to play a round. That includes each of the past two weekends, when he arrived on Thursday and stayed through most of Sunday.
